I was lying thinking I could manipulate his addiction.
Pretty sad.
Yep, here too... I started keeping things from him regarding where I had been, who I had seen during my work day. He was so convinced I had multiple boyfriends in other towns, I found it was easier to tell him I just "stayed in the office all day.... just did my work, didn't talk to anyone..." so that I could avoid his bizarre accusations which often led him into a drunken rage.... But then he would catch me in a lie, which only made him rage harder....
And yes, I lied too, to cover my snooping, and other embarrassing things I did in an attempt to gain some sort of control over the craziness....
