Dear Tricia

From your post you appear to be kind, understanding & supportive towards your boyfriend.

People who are in a tough place and feel pressurised (it can be hard to meet  what you think is everyones expectations or commitments.) even if there isn’t any, they may lie and then when they get caught out they have put them self into an even worse place.

I’m struggling to understand what’s happened to our relationship and also wondering if there are other lies. Has your trust in him/relationship been broken or is it dented? I would advise that you take this  time out as an opportunity to nurture yourself and find other things that give you joy & satisfaction so that you are in a stronger, better place no matter what the outcome of this particular episode  is.

Kind regards

Roberta
