They’ve been married four months; they had a five month courtship. Friends warned him that she had an unsavory past but he brushed off their concerns. Now he finds that she has lied about her past as well as the present. He says he married for life but doesn’t know how he can live with a habitual liar.
I said:
When the pain of this relationship far exceeds the pleasure, it will be time to call it quits. Only you can be the judge of when it’s time to walk away. You married the woman you thought she was, not the woman she is. It’s not failure to leave such a situation, it’s knowing when to cut your losses and run for your life.
