The Villian?

Do you ever feel like the villian in your partners story? I've been with my husband for 10 years, that's a long ass time. We have a son together and I love this man more than anything else. We have a relationship that most people envy, but it has recently come to my attention that my husband thinks I'm a liar. His exact words were "you exaggerate everything, you have also said things to our friends that aren't true but I wasn't going to call you out because you are my wife" so I asked him, what do I "exaggerate" he couldn't give me a scenario or tell me what I supposedly exaggerated. Should I take this to heart or is he just being an ass to be an ass? Now if you knew me, I take not lieing and being truthful through and through! But now I'm in my head wondering if I've become a liar and don't even know.

im going to go with he is being an ass. my husband said to me once, when i was having a hard time, i said “but youve said ive been doing better right?” he said “sometimes i just say things to make you feel better” i held onto that and questioned everything after. finally we ended up in a couples counselor and he says “i was getting under your skin. i didnt expect you to hold onto it, maybe there was some truth to it when i said it but now i feel like ive dug a hole and you cant trust me” so it could be something he felt but give him room to come back from it, especially because you said you do truly love him so he must love you too. i feel like this gets deep because it makes you question every conversation after. but i hope my experience helps you think of your own in fair perspective and helps you work out of this

I know he does love me, it's just heart breaking that he would think that about me. Maybe there is something else going on, he tell me that he didn't want to start a fight but I did cry once he left for work.

It sounds like there probably is some truth to what he’s saying he feels, there usually always is but he probably couldn’t think of a scenario there and then or maybe he didn’t have a good one and it’s just something around that that’s bugged him, I doubt you have become a liar but it’s probably a difference in opinion, like you’re telling your truth which is different from how he’s perceived the situation x

I'm sorry but the fact that you use words like villain when he just said you exaggerate sometimes leads me to believe that you may exaggerate a little. But I don't think that's a big deal, just tell him to get over it lol

I mean, using 'villain' for an interaction like this is an exaggeration in itself 😅
