He lied about his mum dying

My husband has kept me away from meeting his friends etc and I’ve just found out through one of his friends that my husband had told everybody in his circle that his mum died about 10-12 years ago. He’s never lied to me about this but I find it so sick that he’s lied to everybody else about it. His mum is well and healthy and he sees and speaks to her pretty much everyday. I told everybody that it’s a lie (they didn’t believe me because it’s gone on for so long and said that I must be mistaken because she’s definitely dead) so i asked him to go and tell his friends this. My husband does lie about anything and everything in general though, big and small and when he gets caught out- he still doesn’t admit it to me. Do you think he has a mental health condition? I’ve asked him to go doctors or get therapy but he won’t admit or acknowledge there’s anything wrong with him 🙁

Show your support

Sounds like a narcissist or a pathological liar. Regardless, this isn’t a healthy partner and you should seriously consider whether or not you want to leave because I’m sorry but, often with these kind of situation’s, therapy is not going to fix it. At least that’s my opinion if a person is a narcissist. It’s your decision whether to stay or leave with a partner you cannot trust. He is essentially a stranger. I wouldn’t feel secure at all.

I agree with Cristela above. Pathological liar fits really well here

SMH! Some people are just weird. I personally won’t be with someone like this! There would be so much you won’t know about him!

Compulsive lying is very draining for the other person. I couldn't deal with it I had an ex like that and I couldn't trust anything he said. He should get therapy if he can be persuaded but I've not heard of someone growing out of it or stopping it

Def a mental health condition

He needs help

This is a habit he had since little. There’s no therapy in the world that will fix it Honestly you may have to be prepared to be single women cause if he can lie about his mom being dead what more can he lie about to others and especially to you. My hubby is the same way. Something so damn small and simple he’ll lie. I just learned how to know his lies. when he says yes it’s actually a no,Etc.

What’s the purpose of lying about his mom?? Is he embarrassed of her?

That isn’t normal to lie that his mom is dead .. he needs some serious therapy because that’s horrible
