I have a confession to make and I will also like help to understand.

I lied to my ex boyfriend about my pregnancy just for the relationship to get better. I thought it will be the only way for him to commit and to go to therapy to work things together, but I feel really bad. He broke up with me but never knew the truth because I said I lost him at two months.
Why did I do that and how can I heal to never do it again?
Thank you

Welcome to psych central

Trying to manipulate someone into a relationship is doomed to failure. It might be helpful for you to see a therapist. Get to the bottom of why you feel the need to lie to keep a boyfriend.

Welcome to PC!

Only you can truly answer the question as to why you decided to lie. Just learn a valuable lesson from it and yes, talk to a therapist if need be. Solid and healthy relationships do not involve lies or manipulations. Commitment should come naturally and over time. Best to avoid desperate measures to hold onto someone. If it's meant to be, it will. (((hugs)))
