Hi, My X use to do the same exact things! I know exactly what it feels like, unfortunately the last few lies I found out were from my children. He was hangin around with a white trash piece of shit that was his sisters friend. He swore up and down they were just friends, come to find out he had been seeing her off and on for about 12 years! I was married to this asshole for 17 of them! Please please... Listen to your heart, especially with his track record.. make sure for yourself and I hope its not true, but that there isn't another woman! I don't know how I didn't find out sooner. I guess the kids were younger..not sure.. But the things you were saying is just how it was with us.. and he didn't even care when we didn't talk I think he actually enjoyed it because there was less to cover up if I wasn't asking him questions! But please keep your eyes and ears open, and I hope you find nothing but just in case hun.. take it from someone who has been there. Take care good luck and if anything changes please keep me informed or if u need another woman to talk to email or im me anytime! Good luck & be strong! Kim

It may be depression.  I used to think my husband was lazy because all he did was sleep and lay on the couch.  He was depressed.  I didn't understand until I started going through a major depression about 10 months ago.  In my case anti-depressants has helped a lot.

Honesty is the BEST policy...\n\nTalk to him about what's bothering you...otherwise...what is he suppose to do? He can't read your mind. \n\nMy husband works his butt off too and comes home, showers, eats and sleeps...gets up the next day, goes to work, comes home, showers, eats and sleeps...and so on.\n\nI feel the same way you do at times, but we need to understand, (which we both do) that he is tired and drained.  This does NOT interpret that he does not love you or find you unattractive...he's just tired.\n\nTry scheduling something for you and him on his day(s) off something special to do...don't wait for him...just do it.\n\nPray for courage and uplifting...\nTry to get some sleep... :)

Did you go to the Dr. when your boyfriend was tested to prove he don't have anything, or did he just say that he doesn't have anything.  Boys lie.  All the time.  Because he wants to c*um inside of you....BE SMART!

He is extremely immature.I turn off my alarm clock,and I cant remember doing it.It is exhaustion,because we are programmed to skivy all the time our brain doesnt shut down.I would not argue over something petty like this.It makes me angry that you have to explain yourself to this pathetic excuse for a man.Tell him calmly you were feeling unwell,and felt completely exhausted to the point you couldnt remember turning the tv off.let him know(through gritted teeth) that you would never deliberately ignore him,and that you love him.men are pains.

Why are you continuing to put up with this? You asked him to do something to save your marriage, and he can't even do that?! Your marriage needs help. You need a counselor to talk about this, because obviously your husband has no concern for your feelings, by flirting and lying to you. He may even be cheating. Don't put up with this another minute! He's treating you like dirt. You deserve so much better.

I would suggest getting an attorney or getting in contact with the state AMA or State Board of Medical Quality Assurance. This doctor seems like he needs to be put in place.

Relationships are based upon honesty and trust. I could not lie to my husband about anything even when i know that it is going to get me in trouble, the reason is is because I love him and he deserves to know what is going on and to lie to him is to dishonor him. \n\nShe is probably embarrassed about her habit, but she needs to realize that it is not okay to lie to you about it. It is not very honorable to lie to someone and I can understand where you would not trust her.  You probably almost feel like she is hiding something. \n\nI would suggest having a long hearted but gentle and calm talk with her and maybe counseling may be necessary as well

that takes some training.  visit your local library, you should see some books on the subject.  but fidgeting and looking down and away is usualy a sign of lying.

Insecurity. Self esteem problems. He thinks that no one will like him if he isn't "prestigious". Maybe you could boost his morale. Tell him how proud you are of him, for whatever accomplishments you know of...or just a quality about him that you really like.\n\nI wouldn't necessarily consider this to be compulsive lying..such as an habitual liar..as that's usually a psychological disorder that people who suffer from it really can't help, sorta like kleptomania.\n\nAnyway, if you love him and he's important to you, try and fix the behavior by honing in on the good in him so that he doesn't feel the need to get outside approval and validation based on lies. Good luck.

There really no such thing as little white lies, a lie is a lie no matter what way you look at it. He is becoming good at lying. You thinking its a little white lie, is helping cover up his actions. The people he is hanging out with could be other women, since he lies about it anyway. If you are loosing your trust in him from his lies, than how can you trust the marriage. Let him know that you love him and let him know that he needs to come clean with you or your going to separate, not divorce. But, being separated from him may make him realize what he has at home. It will also improve your feelings for him. Right now its confusing, please don't keep making excuses for him. Cause those lies will become an everyday thing for him.

I think you and hubby need to have an open, honest heart to heart. When he complains about your "cool" behavior tell him, it's easier for you to be more attentive and affectionate when he is treating you with the same loving care. It is possible that he has some under lying problems that he needs to talk about, there may be some changes that he is looking for in the relationship....Just go to him and listen with an open mind. Find out what both of you are missing from the relationship, and make good effort to be sure to do those things...spend some one on one time with each other, doing things you both enjoy, maybe even discover a new hobby together....enjoy loving each other again. We all hit rough patches in our marriages, we just have to work through them.\nGood Luck....you can email me if you need someone to talk to .\n\n\n**** wanted to add after seeing all the cheating answers that yes, they might be a possibility, but I think there would be other signs if that were going on....and This type of behavior doesn't always equal cheating!! Like I said he might just want a little change in the relatioship, or have other problems he needs to work out or talk about.  **** DON'T JUMP TO ANY CONCLUSIONS that could make matters worse, but keep your eyes open. ****

Most but, not all people suffering from bi-polar disorder or depression, will try to self medicate at one point or another.  If your husband is reluctant to go get help, maybe you should seek counseling for yourself to learn how to live with somebody living with a disability.

I think everyone has untold secrets. I wouldn't tell him unless he specifically asked.  Then I would not lie to him.  I am sure he has secrets and they should be kept that way.  Your shrink is right in saying the past is the past and has nothing to do with him.

I can't stand how he always asks me, What's wrong? when I tell him nothing, he thinks I'm lying even though nothing is wrong maybe I'm just tired of stressed out thinking about things that are going on at the moment or whatever. He always acts like I am mad at him or something and I won't tell him what he did wrong.

First of all he is lying to you so that is a red flag. The phone calls from other women, him talking on the phone and walking away is enough of a hint that something isn't right. You have a lot of red flags in front of you and the fact that he is physcally and verbally abusive doesn't help either. I know you love him but you have to think of yourself and your kids wellfare. You should leave before you or your kids get hurt. Try to get some professional help too.

You should confront him about it. If he says there's nothing wrong, tell him to stop acting like it.
