My boyfriend lies about small things - is there a future in this relationship?

[Arya]

He honestly sounds like a compulsive liar. None of his lies were actually a huge deal, but there are a lot of them, and he lies for absolutely no reason. It's not like you would have been mad at him for any of that stuff. It sounds to me like he might need some therapy. But also, you should not be in a relationship with someone whom you cannot trust. I suggest you talk to him face to face about this issue. Maybe suggest to him that he seek some professional advice. If he honestly does not know why he tells all these little lies then it may be something more deeply rooted. If he doesn't want to take your advice and he resists confrontation about this issue then you may need to get out of the relationship. If he takes your advice then at least you know that he cares enough about you to face this issue, if not, well then, you can't love someone you cannot trust, can you?
