What do you do when the one you are madly in love with is a compulsive liar?

reverse psaychology Your fiance needs some psychological counseling. People that are compulsive liars do so because they have no self-confidence and feel a need to be accepted by ALL their peers. They don't always realize that not everyone is going to like them (happens to us all) and they dramatize situations to become self-important. They can lie about the silliest things, but one day they will lie about something very serious and can cause a lot of heartache. If your mate isn't willing to seek counseling for this problem then I would break-off the engagement until they either comply or they continue to move on. Marriage should be for a life-time and this isn't a good start with the problems you have.
