What do you do if you married a pathelogical liar? |
[Edit] |
Answer
I have a family member who chronically lies and is so good at it they actually end up believing what they have said and it is often very hard to catch them out, but know that this is a disease and the only way to live with a person like this is for them to get psychiatric help. But be aware they may never be 'cured' and in this case it is up to you if you can carry on living your life with the lies. It would be harder with a husband but if you do decide to seperate and remain friends just remember to take what they say as a grain of salt and enjoy the time you have together and not converse to deeply.
Answer
I believe that it matters how much you love this person and the importance of what is being lied about. There's a big difference in weather they bragged to their friends back in the day that they dated a specific person or if they have or they're currently out there committing crimes. If you truely love your partner and aren't in any danger, then you should work with them. Join them with psychological help. Now if your partner is lying about crimes and/or violence, then cut your losses and get out.
Always remember, Your importance of an answer might not be as important as you think it is. Just an example, you might remember having a great deal of fun at a specific time with someone. You might remember it moment by moment where the people(s) that you were with, might not ever think about it ever again. How important are the questions?
Answer
I agree, if you can, just get over it and know that your spouse isn't trustworthy. Don't fight about it, it won't help anything. You can try to get him/her therapy but I've found my spouse just lied to the therapist and said I was the one with the problem and the therapist didn't know who to believe. If you just can't get over it, then there is only one option, divorce :)
