My situation is getting difficult. I've been with the father of my child for almost three years. When we got together I was truthful about everything. WEll, about six months ago we got in pretty heated discussing my past. now I did leave some things out. But I let things get strecthed out of proporation. He thinks I've done all kinds of differnt things that I haven't. I let this go on for six months without knowing how to tell that things got out of hand. Today, I'm telling him the truth but he can't believe because of what I already said. Every time I talk to him about this he makes me nervous and scared. This is why he thinks I'm Still lying. HELP SUGGESTIONS

Falseperception,

I'm not sure this is a polygraph issue. This seems to me to be a relationship problem which a polygraph will not be able to correct. Mistrust is difficult to correct under even the best of circumstances.

If you started your relationship by lying, and now told him everything and he still doesn't believe you, I have to ask, what did you expect? But, if you have now been totally forthcoming about your past (whether you added or subtracted information is immaterial) the only thing I can suggest to rebuild the trust is either counseling, time or both.

Good luck,

Jim

If a second opinion is of any value to you, I agree with Sackett. Counseling is what I would recommend based on your posting. Polygraph is used to resolve issues of deception. Passing or failing an exam will not make someone trust you again once they are convinced that you have abused their trust.
