people who lie
Do people who feel the need to hide things or lie ever really change? I want an answer from someone who has been in a LONGGGGG term relationship

I have been married for 30 years this coming 6-30 and I was a lier out of necessity until I was 17. Most people lie out of necessity, to avoid punishment. When there is no longer a fear of punishment, there is no longer a need to lie. You want lying to stop, take the fear of punishment away.
Nice idea isn't it, to bad it only works with people that are really honest deep down. Some people can not help lying, you can catch them dead to rights in a lie and they will insist that they are not lier's.
It can take some time to find out what type they are, is it more work then your willing to put into this person?
Be well
P.S. A study I read some years back said:
15% of people are completely honest and would never do anything dishonest.
15% of people are dishonest and would do something dishonest whether or not they felt they could get away with it.
Here's the kicker: 70% of people would do something dishonest if they felt they would not get caught.
Do you feel lucky?

for me the answer is no. i was in a relationship with a boyfriend for six months, and then he cheated on me. we stayed together and tried to make things work, but again he cheated on me. so he didnt change at all even though he promised and promised me over and over again. my answer is no just from personal experience, but i guess that it could really go either way. i think it really just depends on how well you know the person to really determine whether or not they will change. i think its really just a matter of trust. i hope i helped =]]

The answer is simple.
Some people change, some people don't. It depends if they truly regret what they've done and if they realize it was a mistake.
I do believe in second chances, because I feel everyone has the ability to change for the better.
and I personally know of people who have changed. :)

Anyone can change.
Few people do.
There is no trick I've discovered to tell one from the other. There is no reason or guarantee when it comes to truth telling. Either they will change their mind and start to be honest with you, or they won't. You simply have to decide if it is worth the risk to trust them.
