Why would a married man who has apparently been honest for more than 30 years start to tell odd little lies?
Recently my husband lied to me so much.When I asked why I couldn't get him at work,he said he was away from his desk & later said he'd been golfing with a man he knows I don't like.He came home the next day with my sapphire bracelet he'd left for repairs months ago first saying he had it for a while & forgot it in his car for weeks,then later,after telling me about golf,said he'd picked it up when he'd gone to play near the jeweler's.Later that afternoon I found a fast food place credit card receipt he'd dropped in the driveway.When I asked him if he &his friend had lunch he said he'd skipped lunch.When I asked if he'd been to that food place recently he said he hadn't been there in months.Over the last few days I've found ways to casually mention this place.He's had chances to tell me he was there. I've never known him to lie before.Is he just losing his memory?Should I be worried about the lies?He knows I cried in bed,put his arms around me but never asked why I was upset. What's up?
We did make love last night then I started to cry & couldn't sleep-was up past 4 am!I tried to stay in bed until at least 2-he couldn't sleep either-VERY unusual-nothing ever keeps him awake.He never asked what was wrong, just held my hand tightly,put his arm around me.I've asked so many times about this food place that he'd have to be an idiot(He's not)to not think that I know he was there.As for alzheimer's,his father has it but my husband has shown no signs of it at all & sees his doctor regularly.I don't know if I'm making mountains out of molehills or if I really should be as worried as I am.I never thought I'd be thinking what I'm thinking.He's always said he'd never cheat,had absolutely no tolerance for Bill Clinton's antics...but he is only human & maybe protests too much? We had several really rough years-we fought a lot & weren't very close,but I thought last year we fixed that,went away for a 2nd honeymoon & all.Talking about those years,we both said we'd never cheated.

You could ask him straight out but if he is hiding something he is gonna lie anyway. Unfortunately you are gonna have to dig around for other clues, look and you will find.
ask him straight up about the lies. tell him you know that he is getting his lies messed up and you want to know the truth. or if you want to be sneaky start checking things out like his computer and cell phone. something sounds wrong here and you need to get to the bottom of it. figure out what way best works for you and go for it.
Could be the early signs of Alzheimer’s….may want to have your husband evaluated by a Dr……
I wonder – when my husband started telling little lies it was because he was trying to cover up where he had been – with another woman. I don’t want to alarm you, but I wonder if he is seeing someone?
Either way, you have to know. If you can afford it, hire a pi.
Most of it adds up, to me, like he is covering up something. –But what struck me as very odd, is how he denied going out to lunch — after all, what harm is that? Going to lunch with his golf buddy or alone –doesn’t denote an affair, so why would he lie about it? So then I started thinking, maybe you should make him a doctors appointment and have him checked for Alzheimer’s or some other problems. You can call the doctor and express your concerns before you go.
Either that or he is doing something sneaky.
I seriously do think you should have him checked at the doctors though.
He may be hiding something…. confront him about the lies and ask him what’s goin on. You’ll feel much better even if the truth hurts. At least you will know and then can act accordingly. I know the hurt you feel and the worry.
Maybe he is going through a midlife crisis? The best thing you could do is confront him with what you found and ask him what is going on. Let him know that you caught him in a lie and corner him with it. He needs to explain himself to you otherwise it will bring you more stress not knowing the truth.
