I am so confused because my husband keeps on lying to me, even about silly things like him being given a day off work.
Or actually more than one.
He has also lied to me about having another phone which I found in his suit jacket when I put it away the other week.
I feel I can no longer believe a word he says.
Too many things just don’t add up.
It’s making me feel so down but when I try to talk to him about it he just snaps: “I’m not having an argument”, and then we don’t talk for weeks.
Is he cheating?
What should I do?

IT IS A little hard to have faith in a person who lies to you.
No matter the “size” or importance of the lie.
Generally the only plausible reason for him having a second phone would be that he has a work phone.
Why would he keep that a secret?
Guess it’s not a work phone then.
Why would he have days off work and not tell you about them?
Maybe because he is going to be somewhere else and he doesn’t want you to know where he will be?
Why does he refuse to discuss these things with you?
Maybe because he has things to hide.
Why are you putting up with this?
I really don’t know.
You need to ask yourself these questions and a whole lot more.
You already have the answers.
