And worst it is your husband or your wife?... how can you give him/her an ultimatum not to do it again. Will you be lenient in forgiving him? and what if he's doing it over and over again what is the right thing to do?

I belive I would have to cut the relationship off with them because I cannot stand a liar. I would be so devastated to find out their whole life is a lie. I would never believe them ever again because they lie so much. I would think the relationship and feelings is a lie also.

yes that should be the right thing to do but there are lots of things to be considered... for me the reputation of my family comes first. Its so hard to decide on these things.

Very true but they runied the reputation of the family to begin with when they started the whole thing off and continued it as a lie. It would be hard to go back and change things to make it the truth without everyone noticing all of the lies that were told before also. I know what you mean though.

It would depend on the type of lies. I dated a guy in high school, we're even still friends today, who told some whoopers of lies. But they weren't lies about anything that really matter. He would exaggerate things he had done, or lie about experiences he had, stupid stuff. I would know he was lying, but feel I couldn't correct him because what would be the point. He still does it now. He'll drop me an email saying he just got back from an exotic vacation, and then his sister who's also my friend will say that he was sick in bed that week. I think it's pathological with him, but as his friend it doesn't matter to me. If I were still dating him, I'd have killed him by now. Now if the husband or wife is lying to cover up cheating, gambling, drinking excessively etc- the problem isn't the lying, the problem is what they're covering up. I would base my decision to stay or not stay with them on how willing they were to get help for their problem.

First I will confront him and it depends what kind of lie it is,maybe I will forgive him I dont know! If the reason is he have another girl,I will not forgive him anymore Its better to let him go than to hurt again and again,but I trust my husband.
