News of Compulsive Lying Forum

I didn't know compulsive lying was such a problem. I'm actually proud of being a compulsive liar because it makes me feel like i'm above the law. I miss so many days of school and i'm tardy a lot, but I don't suffer the consequences since I know how to lie and prey on people's sympathy. This also applies to everything else I do wrong in my life. I feel like I can't be touched! ...

I am a pathological/compulsive liar. It has turned into a huge problem in my life and amazingly I have been able to keep up it, though I'm sure some many people have caught onto my act.

Hello. I'm not sure what I'm doing here. After another hard day I simply decided to look up about lying pathology which I have definite problems with. I don't know what I want telling about myself here, so I'll simply go and tell without any expectations.

Hi- I am new to the site and just spent hours poring over the compulsive lying posts. First thanks to all who posted I felt as if I could have written any number of the posts as I have lived with lying for as long as I can remember. My destructive behavior has ruined my marriage, lost my home and strained my relationship with my children. I have burned bridges professionally and personally. I spend ...

An ex Girlfriend works in the same office as me. Since our breakup I've not seen anyone else. Before Christmas the lady sitting next to me noticed I'd booked two weeks away in May. I know she's friendly with my ex so I said keep this to yourself I'm getting married. Well you can imagine how this has spread and people asked me lots of questions. Several people want to see wedding photos and it's ...

My boyfriend is definitely a compulsive liar- a few years ago, it wasn't bad at all, but now it's become a huge problem, with really huge lies.

I got in a fight with him last week about it- We only get to see each other once a week or so now, since he's taking a semester off from school and is at his parents', so I had invited him to go to a school-sponsored trip ...

I can't think of any one I know who knows the complete truth about me. Every person I talk to sooner or later gets a lie, no matter how big or small it is. It didn't use to be this bad. I can't remember lying this much when I was younger, but I'm only 16 so I don't have that much to remember yet. I didn't know that compulsive lying was like an actual thing ...

Even at a young age of 4 or 5 years old I would lie about the silliest things. Sometimes I would lie as an excuse or to get out of trouble. But recently I started lying for attention.
