Why is he lying?
The story
i don't get it. why does he keep lying to my face?I just found proof that my husband is cheating. it's not like i didn't have my suspicions, but when you're faced with actual evidence, it hits different, ya know? i tried to confront him, laid everything out nicely—phone records, some suspicious texts, even a hotel receipt that ain't ours, you name it, i got it. yet, he looks me straight in the eye and tells me it's not what i think. can you believe it? is he fooling himself, or just me?
come on, i am not asking for drama or a scene, just a bit of honesty; but he's making it all too complicated. i mean, why doesn't he just admit to it when it's all right there? the mistrust is growing worse with every lie, and this back-and-forth dance is exhausting. really, what's the point of lying when the jig is up??? maybe he thinks he's slicker than he is, but seriously, who does he think he's fooling? it's become this endless cycle where he denies, denies, denies, and i'm stuck trying to piece together the truth, detective style. i'm too old for this kind of nonsense. like, just be a grown-up and own up to it, right? can't figure out what goes in his mind. is he trying to save face, or does he actually believe his own lies??
so why is he still lying??? any thoughts?

if you feel as though your relationship can no longer work, you should get a divorce. you have all this evidence, so you can show proof he's cheating even if he denies it.
but I can't really get a divorce: I don't work and he earns a good living, I'm trapped...
oh dang... best of luck then im outta ideas...
man, that's rough. first off, dude's probably in denial or thinkin' he's gonna Houdini his way outta this mess, like magically gettin' you to believe him 😂 some guys just can’t handle the reality of their actions and would rather ride that lie train till it derails completely. it's wild tho, how they think you're just gonna ignore all the glaring red flags like it's a game of "guess who" when you've already pieced it all together! i had a friend dealing with something similar and she eventually realized that sometimes they keep lying because they're scared of facing what they've done or losing everything once it's all out in the open. either way, you deserve better than playing detective 24/7—it's exhausting! maybe time to lay down some ultimatums if he can't come clean? gotta look after yourself too, ya know? 🤷♂️
Honestly, sounds like your husband’s living in his own little fantasy world if he thinks you’ll keep buying his crap. It's really shitty to be lied to when you've got all the receipts right there. 🤦♂️ Maybe he's hoping you'll just give up and drop it? Either way, you deserve better than being treated like a fool, plain and simple.
