16/f
Ok, so I caught my boyfriend (of 3 months) in a lie. But I haven't confronted him yet. See, on New Years, he came over, and told me he had to leave by 11:45 because his parents said he had to be home by 12 because it is illegal to drive past 12 if you are under 18. So I was sad because I couldnt be with him at midnight. A few days later, I found out that he actually went and spent the night at a friends house. Should I confront him about this lie? If so, how should I confront him? Should I act upset, or not? thanks.

cheddar answered Saturday January 7 2006, 5:54 pm: well that sucks. since you're just starting out in your relationship (3 months isn't that long) you should confront him about it, but don't act mad. that can come off as immature, but if you're upset about it, tell him. you could say "hey so did you have fun at your friends on new years?" and he'd probably forget he lied and tell you about it. OR, he could say you were suspicious and be offended (even though you're right).. either way, you need to talk to him about it! [ cheddar's advice column | Ask cheddar A Question ]

"Also, do not send me questions that you have sent to 50 other Inboxes, as well as the pool. Not only is that against Advicenators' policy, but it is also highly insulting. You'll notice that I will reject them, easy at that. If you think I won't find out, I will, so don't waste our time, got it?" [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]
MummuM answered Saturday January 7 2006, 2:35 pm: It sounds like you're upset. If you weren't you wouldn't be wanting to confront him or even talk about this. Since you're bringing this up, sill, I do think you're upset and hurting inside.
You have to bring this up and confront him about this, though. If he lied about something so small, what else could he lie about, y'know? That's why you have to ask him about this and explain to him your feelings on the topic.
Just sit him down one day and explain to him that you know he ditched to you to go hangout with his friends on New Years. Tell him if he wanted to hangout with his friends he could have just told you, instead of lying about it and going behind your back. Explain your feelings and try to work it out. Just have a good talk. ♥ [ MummuM's advice column | Ask MummuM A Question ]

♥ and yes, i think you should confront him. if you are upset about it then let him no.
♥ maybe you should just be like _______ (his name) i know you weren't supposed to be home by then. and i know you went to ________'s(friend) house.
♥ let him no that it bothers you. tell him that you probably wouldn't have minded too much if he would have just actually told you the truth.
♥ just be honest and let him know how you feel.
♥ good luck, i'm so sorry, thats sad. [ AlwAySz_h3r3_4_yOu's advice column | Ask AlwAySz_h3r3_4_yOu A Question ]
