Aviza, it seems you are easily swayed by what other people suggest you do. Your therapist suggested breaking up, so you were going to break up with him. Then your mother suggested to give him a chance, now you're giving him a chance. Why not listen to your own gut feelings on this? What does your gut tell you, and what does your own inner voice tell you about what to do? You were telling us he is lying to you, and that something is off... that there are red flags. Listen to your own voice on this one. There are red flags, and I think you should be paying attention to them.
