truth in relationships

I often find myself wondering why it is that when I see someone being dishonest in a relationship, I feel the need to uncover their lies? This seems to be a problem for the person being lied to, obviously I'm creating a problem for the liar, and yet I am the one getting in trouble for being honest? Somewhere along the way in life our society made it socially acceptable to be lying, scandalous, worthless pieces of shit. When did this kind of serious thing become a social acceptance? Should I, from now on, just pretend to like you and believe that what you're saying is true even though I know it is 100% false? Should I make that kind of person acceptable to be around my kids and myself when they drive me to want to vomit?

Somehow during the course of uncovering the truth and proving to the other person that I have absolutely no benefit by lying about this, I get accused of being a stupid, ignorant, bitch who seems to be insecure about myself and my relationship. This just made me laugh. Do you hear yourself? Do you see how absolutely idiotic and repugnant you sound by writing this crap? I am in a 7 year long relationship that includes a marriage and 2 beautiful kids. Why the hell should I be worried? Everyone who knows my husband knows his morals and his unwillingness to do anything that would make him a bad person. Even he was telling you what I said was true!

I have come to almost feel sorry for you, but then I think of all the reasons why I shouldn't, and one day when you catch him by walking in on it, I still don't think you would leave. He has lost his best friend, and at least three others he could have had if he didn't already, and now you have lost the same. The walls will come crashing down, everything will fall apart and no one is to blame but yourself. So once again, when did it become socially acceptable to be a liar and a cheat? Are the original institutes of marriage no longer applicable? Why is it that people who have a good, solid, marriage, or even just a good, solid relationship can no longer make the news?

We have alot to change in this country, but the only way for a real change, has to start with you. So I am no longer going to try and be there for you, help you, or listen to your incessant need to put everyone else down because you know your world is falling apart. I am going to make sure, even moreso than I do now, that my husband knows just how much he is appreciated and loved. That I take time everyday to hug and kiss my little princes to death, and never leave them wondering if they were loved enough. I know I am amazing, I know I am wonderful, and I know I don't need or want anyone in my life who doesn't think so too. Good luck to you, maybe one day you will see what you have turned yourself into.
