I still remember the betrayal I felt when I realized that the stories he had told me of his personal history were all made up. I can see how i overintellectualized everything and did not take the good advise I got which was to extricate myself as quickly as possible from that relationship. Instead it took me several years, and it ended with him dumping me for another woman and me in the hospital.

Hi tecomsin,
Betrayals can be very toxic, as you know, and as I am finding out.
I agree it's best to get out asap, if it is feasible. I have found the liar keeps on lying and this, to me, is toxic.
It is also very stressful. I have a fair amount of support to help keep me thinking in a healthy way. Much of my support is right here at PC.
As you also know, the hospital can be very helpful when we need it.
I am very sorry you went through this. It's a horrible experience!
Much Love to You!
