How to tell if an A is lying?

Their mouth is moving & words are coming out!

Ok - so maybe I'm embellishing the story a little

My AH has 4 yrs in a program of recovery & will still lie on some occasions. Not as often as he did. He is trying to work on it - After 48 yrs of automatically telling a lie, I guess it is difficult for him to be honest in everything.

It has also made me look at myself. How often do I "stretch" the truth in a situation also? Was I entirely honest with him, too? I'm not talking about the things we had to hide (money, car keys, etc.) to protect ourselves, but just general stories about how much work we did, loads of clothes I washed or stuff like that? Helped me look at myself & try to be honest in all my affairs.

Trying to work on my own garden of self. And let the A's in my life work on their own weeds in their garden.

Peace to You,
Rita
