My ex would occasionally lie, sometimes about big things and sometimes about small things. And I didn’t catch them frequently enough to know

It would be helpful if there was a qualifier this is about romance bc with no context I wanted to say secrets & lies can also be about safety

Yes, and it should be noted that control is a survival skill . Relinquishing control requires us to use newer parts of the brain

@Kc Davis What about very convenient forgetfulness when being asked to tell the truth about a past action?

Totally agree. And in my experience, the secrets and lies have also been about protecting a certain behavior while also keeping the person being lied

Even w/ strangers or abusers, secrets and lies are about control. I’m not ashamed of my bank account # but I am going to control who can access it.

I do wonder how this relates to pathological lying? Obv a separate issue but like I don’t feel like pathological liars I’ve met are necessarily 1/2

I have such a relatable situation I would love to share, but not enough characters to do so. Plus the vulnerability of it.

For me as a kid it was the opposite end I lied because my stepmom had to control what I said and none of the honest answers were "correct"

And the control is about exploitation. You’re valuable. They know they may lose the value you provide if you have the information.

Oof. I let someone lie to me and harm me for years because I thought it was shame based and I felt bad for him. This is a helpful take.
