I have been dating this man for a year and we are now engaged and have a really great relationship. I've grown to become attached to him as he has become to me, too. He knows everything about me except for this one problem. I am a pathological liar, and as I've tried my best to not lie to him, I have told him a few, but nearly not as many as I have told others. I'm scared to tell him because he HATES liars. I'm scared that if I tell him he'll break up with me and hate me. I can't lose him. I've known him for two years and he has been the most important person in my life during those years. I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I didn't know what other place to go, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Before approaching your guy with this you may want to do some research on pathological lying and perhaps even talk to a therapist. Finding out why you do this could be a great help in bringing the honesty you need into your relationship.

If he really loved you he would accept you for who you are. Unless there is something you can do to stop, then I would just be honest with him. He will dislike you even more if you never tell him and he finds out from someone else.

I think I know the reason why. I've researched it and I read that those who deal with a traumatic event in their life tend to be more prone to pathological lying than those who haven't. My mother died when I was really young, but, I'm scared that he won't care. He has a really short temper, plus he hates liars. I don't know how to tell him or if I should.
