If you've put up with it for 30 years there has got to be some other good qualities to this "good old boy!" You have to decide if you are angry over a culmination of problems in your marriage and you've finally boiled over, or, you're having a weak moment. Most men (and women) can lie about small things. For example: I asked my husband to tell his friend to call me with information I asked for. When my husband got home I asked him if he told this guy and my husband said he had. Well, my husband lied! I didn't get too upset because I know he didn't do it intentionally, but men will lie over the smaller things in life rather than deal with confrontation. If your husband lies about important things or is cheating, then yes, by all means ... get rid of the old goat! Good luck Marcy
Compulsive lying is when you cannot stop lying, so you lie almost whenever you can.
No!!
it depends. if it was something big then possibly, but if it is not then no. -nickii Yes. If a spouse does not respect you enough to always be honest, you do not have a marriage, in my opinion. Why continue? -IAenvoy

Psychiatrists, psychologists, clinical social workers, and other mental health personnel use the term 'compulsive lying' when they refer to people who cannot control their lying, that is, people who feel compelled to lie and are aware that they are lying. Therefore, compulsive lying implies impaired ability to control it. The term 'compulsive lying' is not a diagnosis. It is a behavior or a symptom associated with a number of mental disorders [for example, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder]. The term "confabulation" is used to describe lying or invention when the person who is lying is not aware that they are lying. To be more specific, confabulation is treating a fantasy as a fact, without awareness that fantasy has replaced fact."
compulsive lying is a disease. you should go to your doctor they have medication for this situation now... And when you start believing your own lies and can not stop telling a lie that means you need to talk to you doctor, It is confidential...and doctors are great.... they will take care of you....
No, lying out of fear is not compulsive lying. It may be a compulsion, but that's a normal reaction; a defense mechanism. If you lie out of fear, it is justified, therefore *not* driven by a compulsion. Compulsive lying is an actual disorder, characterized by the pathalogical liar telling fibs without motivation, often telling wildly exaggerated stories and appearing to honestly believe them to be true.
Kill her.
Go get help. Get counseling and figure out why you lie.
