Dear Ann Landers, hat makes an adult incapable of tell-ing anything straight? I hate to call my husband a liar, but I am shocked by the way he deviates from the facts. Ned comes from a large family and they all have this despicable habit. I would never embarrass Ned in the presence of others and say, "No, dear, it wasn't like that," but I have pleaded with him in private to please stop exaggerating. It hasn't helped. Why?- Pro-Truth

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:
Dear Readers, , but of course, it was a waste of time. The counselor later told me it was obvious that I wanted counseling to save the marriage, but my ex agreed to it only to appease me and intended on getting a divorce once the charade was over. We had been married 14 years and had two children, ages 7 and 5. It was not easy for me. My ex remarried six months after the divorce was final. I married again 10 years later. My 23-year-old daughter recently asked her father why we were divorced. He replied, 'Because your mother was having an affair.' I am furious with him for telling such a lie. Fortunately, my daughter did not believe him, but it's possible he has repeated that same lie to everyone he knows. I get angry every time I think about it, but don't know if I should confront him. Please, Ann, tell me what to do.
