11 days since she left and surprisingly, I’ve never felt better

I’ve literally been conditioned up to this point to lie constantly to save our relationship.

I feel your pain here. It was definitely tiring having to constantly put on a mask for her family and the habit of constant lying definitely leaked over into my personal relationship with her. I didn’t realize that lying to her parents was one of the roots of the overall lying problem until my therapist pointed it out.

Personally though, I’m not a fan of blaming this on your SO. Parents or not, I still lied to her which is unacceptable regardless of circumstance. That one’s on me.

She always promised me that whenever we got married, things would be different.

Yeah same, and it felt so unfair because how am I supposed to know that? I’ll never know if you’re being sincere or not until we actually get married, and at that point, if I find out you were lying, it’s too late and I’ve already committed my life to you
