Lying/Possibly Cheating??

Postby sloan on Mon Mar 21, 2005 11:09 pm

I found out over the past weekend that my boyfriend is lying to me about his relationships with other women. He travels frequently for work, and apparently is meeting with women that he knows for drinks/dinner while out of town. He has never, ever told me that he is doing this, but I found out through snooping in his email after some things didn't add up in my mind. Besides just lying to me about this information, he is also lying to other people via email about ridiculous stuff that does not matter. For example, he emailed someone that we played golf together a few weeks ago. We haven't played golf since last summer!! There was no need to lie except to make himself look like something he is not. I am now questionning everything he has ever told me. I have also caught him lying about other things in the past too, but this is more than I can handle. I continued to forgive him before and looked past it.

I have my own insecurities regarding trust issues after having been cheated on in previous relationships, and this is a huge violation of my trust in him. He is aware of my past and seems to think this is my problem, not his. He tends to turn everything around on me to make most of our problems due to my "issues". A little more information, I recently moved in with him a few months ago (December), and he completely freaked out and told me he was unsure he wanted to be in a relationship period. I moved out, and over the last 2 months he has been trying to win me back. I had finally given in and then learned all of this stuff this past Saturday.

Any advice? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. As I re-read this, in my mind I am saying to myself- what in the heck am I doing staying with this guy!! However, I do love him and he has some wonderful qualities that are rare to find.

Leaving love is hard to do. You know there are all kind of books about taking a leap and fall in love, but none of them talk about the frigging crashing when it does not work out. My advise to you since you do seem to believe he has some worthy qualities find out if he indeed is cheating or not. Because if he is than good qualities be damn and girl do move on and find someone with less qualities but who will worship you. I did not understand very well why he freaked out when you moved in with him, that you should not have let him get away with.

There is a book out "He is just not that into you"...worth reading, it kind of explains guy behavior.

Good luck.

Thanks a bunch emma. I am not sure if I will ever know for sure if he cheated. He denies it and there is no way to prove it. He freaked out about my moving in, because he was married before and not sure if he wanted to do it again. But the minute I moved out, he said he was sorry and he made a big mistate. Thanks for the input though. You are sweet.
