Got Honesty ?

edited August 2010 in Buddhism Basics
I want to know if anyone is able to fess up about lying. Sometimes when the situation is very intense with my wife i don't want to tell her the truth which seems to me like a huge oncomming fight based on her attitude when asking me the question. Then i tell her something that i think will make the situation better ( lying ! ) . Im then ok for about a week or month or 6 months. Then the entire world falls down one night and i get caught ( uh oh) but then the issue isn't the thing i've done but the lying. What is your experience with this ?

Im not pathological because im aware of it , its more like compulsion and the other thing is its mainly only with her. Not at work i don't even know what the hell is going on sometimes with me. Doesn't anyone have guidance in this area?

    Looks pretty obvious to me. Honestly.
