Do what I did - DOCUMENT EVERYTHING - get a journal, and every time you speak, or see the offender, write the date and everything that happened - even if it seems irrelevent or unimportant. Tape record phone conversations or meetings with the person. Get witnesses to events - and have them write what they saw, sign and date it. Call the police or talk to someone in victims services and inform them of the situation - and ask them to note it officially. If children are involved, call social services and inform them of the situation and situations encountered. TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR - he/she will also document your conversation in your medical file which can be used in court if you so chose. MOst importantly - you need to develop a history of the behaviour and document it with various sources. And on a more pesonal note - everyone's true colors show through eventually...if you've caught onto the persons behaviour, others will too. Good Luck.

There is a book that is written largely for the issue you speak of:

Stop Walking on Eggshells; Coping When Someone You Care about Has Borderline Personality Disorder

Authors: Paul Mason, Randi Kreger

Best of luck!

Short of tape recording them or having a witness the next time you get into one of their headache-inducing conversations, not much. But I do agree with the last post.

The same way an attorney wins a case, by presenting a preponderance of substantiating evidence to prove the claim(s).

What study is best used in pathological liars and their relationships?

I am not aware of any specific studies but I can tell you that pathological liars suffer from antisocial personality disorder (also called sociopathy). In relationships, these people are draining and parasitic and should be avoided at all costs. They are experts at charming even the smartest and most intuitive people. In relationships, a sociopath sees a target --someone they can use and exploit. Sadly everyone is a potential target to a sociopath because we all have weaknessess and the sociopath is a master at exploiting a person's weakness for their own personal gain. They lie, lie, lie! I think many believe their own lies but its hard to tell because a real sociopath probably won't admit to it. The net is just brimming with information on this topic. One exceptionally helpful site is www.lovefraud.com. It explains the disorder as well as providing legal/personal advice on how to deal with such people. The site also contains a forum in which victims of sociopaths may share their personal experiences and offer guidance and support to one another. Of course the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual) is the official source of information for any pathology and should be consulted for a deeper understanding of the pathological liar and his/her interactions with others.
