Sorry CV, Somehow I kept missing your thread. I could so easily have written that list myself. I was looking up "Compulsive lying" on google the other night and i found some really interesting articles. There was even some about how to handle a compulsive liar. It's after 1 AM here so ill look for some links tomorrow. Also you might find googling Narcissism helpful.

As for the money, After a conversation with H tonight he told me now he is tracking all his money, he has realised just how much he spends.
My advice there would be to write out all the bills that need to be paid and when, Then get your H to take over paying for all of the bills. I know, scary thought right? But what have you got to loose really? He is going to continue spending anyway.

Also have you read the DR book? If so it might be helpful to re read it. I know you shouldn't have to be the one to do these things but at worst, it may help the next few years be as pleasant as possible for you and your S.

CV I have really respected your opinions and insights around this board. You need to start doing things to boost your self esteem. I too had this (Still dealing with it but getting better.) I also had the second guessing my every move. You would be amazed what some nice new clothes and a little bit of make up do. Do this for yourself, no one else. It does not even have to be everyday. Feeling good about yourself really does make a huge difference.
Accuracy really has some great advice.
