Lying a Lot

Emotional abuse

Has anyone else become an avid liar when in an abusive relationship?

Recently I noticed that after almost 2 years of marriage I lie to my husband a lot. I feel like I do this because I am afraid of his reaction or I can’t trust him specially when it comes to finances.

Recently he started to catch on and call me out every time I lie to him. I am not always honest about our finances bc I can’t trust him. If he knows that we have ANY money he WILL spend every penny. He is a weed addict and spends all his money on it and mine.

Is this a normal reaction to being abused? Becoming a liar? This is not me. My friends and family have always said that I am an honest person. But I see myself changing because of him.
