[quote=Distracted1978]... I said I didn't care where he was I just wanted to know he was safe. He PERSISTED numerous times that he was there & so on as if he was guilty (I know b/c been there, done that).
He later told me that he'd woke up early & decided to go out & have breakfast before work...... LIE MUCH?! quote]
It sounds like you didn't call him out on his lie this time? If you didn't I think that is probably wise. If you did I think it's understandable. It's exactly like what has been said (IMHO) - this marriage has to be a NEW marriage based on trust. I think calling him out on this particular lie would have been a big fight happening, but maybe in a few days/weeks you can have a conversation with him about this. Draw a boundary - NO LIES! Hold him accountable to this. And honestly - if you can't stop lying or doesn't think he should have to abide by this ultimatum, you have to ask yourself if you really want to be with someone who has that strong affinity to get out of trouble with a lie.
