hello i also lie alot and i dont know why i do it either.
there is lots wrong with me and i dont know why.
sometimes i lie to make myself look better and other times i lie
to cover up my own mistakes(like losing a job, why i want to be alone).
There are lieing disorders, but maybe you could have low self-esteem and are lying to cover that. Or maybe the truth is ugly (like drug infested) and you're lieing to cover that. Or maybe you're lieing because you think your life is dull and you're trying to make it seem more soap-ish. Or maybe you've been lieing for so long that you don't remember how to tell the truth.
Only a qualified psychotherapist can sort this out. If you're diagnosed, tell your girlfriend. If she's not the type to break up with someone who has a disorder or disease, good. If she is the type, then she would have broken up with you if you got even diabetes. Sucks to be her then.
But of course when i lie to her it makes things ten times worse, but i dont seem to be able to quit, Im so afraid of losing her. I dont want her to hurt anymore and i dont want her to have anything to worry about. I want her to believe in me again.
Its my fault she hurts and doesn't believe anything i say, but i want to correct the lieing problem. Badly. I love her more than anything and would go to hell and back for her. I would say i care about her(even though i do) but i must not inside if i keep hurting her the way i do. I do care for her and want to fix this, but i don't know where to begin. i just want her to have a boyfriend/husband to be proud of and i want her the happiest she can be. Please Help!
