What to do if you know your boyfriend is lying?

SW-User
Ask him the reason, talk to him and make it clear lying is not gonna help. If he repeats, then you know what to do. Can't trust liars.

All you can do is accept it or reject it. Those are your two choices.

i confronted a friend when i knew she was lying to me. and well that ended the friendship. but i think she was a sociopath.
What did you say to her? You are lying!! Or are you lying ?
SW-User
Good job
SW-User
no i told her thats not right and told her what the truth was. she got mad at me for calling her out and correcting her.

Wait and watch him hang himself or call him out. If you call him out though, he's most likely been trained to deny and deny again. So then he'll turn the situation onto you, making you look like you're insecure and nuts, thus never having to acknowledge the lie.
In my humble opinion, I'd wait and catch him when he stumbles over himself, he always will, then call him on it.
Unless your man is a decent man, who acknowledges his issues. Then say something like healthy people do.
No trust. No relationship.

Don't except it. Listen to your gut and don't be left broken. Quit first.🙂

Well, do you mean "know" as in "really believe" or "have proof"? Because it sort of depends on which it is. If it's the former, getting solid proof of some sort would probably be the place to start. Otherwise, just stay vigilant, and if the chance to catch him out comes up, take it
I caught him in a lie.
SW-User
Well, talking to him about it might help. And if it's bad enough, you'd do well leaving him altogether
SW-User
I'd probably murder him wby
SW-User
Say you know.

truth serum?! 🤐
Depends on what the lie involved: something trivial or relationship-altering.
I tend to agree with that.
At the end of the day, honesty is always the best policy. Trust in a relationship is so paramount. Once it's compromised, it's nearly impossible to re-establish.
@Maverick1962: i am glad you say nearly because i have seen trust be re-established but not over night - over a long period of very hard work and a lot of compromise from the party who broke the trust.
