TL;DR: We’re talking lies, half-truths, and creative storytelling. Not advice—just real life. What happens when words don’t match actions, stories keep shifting, and you start hesitating to even ask questions? We share personal experiences with cheating, lies by omission, and the moments that finally made things click. From “small” lies that weren’t so small to the ones that took away choice, safety, and trust. We also talk about why some lies hurt more than others—especially when kids, money, and stability are involved. This isn’t about fixing anyone or telling you what to do. It’s just a conversation you might recognize about lying and relationship conflict, and how that looks when you are in a high conflict relationship. Long Description: Few things unravel a relationship faster than realizing the truth keeps changing. Lies don’t always show up as obvious betrayals—they show up as omissions, shifting stories, forgotten details, and explanations that never quite land. In a high conflict relationship, lying often becomes part of the relationship conflict itself, creating confusion, mistrust, and emotional instability long before anyone names it out loud. In this episode of High Conflict Hell, Jen and JeniLynn talk openly about lies in relationships—not from a clinical or therapeutic lens, but from lived experience. We explore what it feels like when words don’t match actions, when stories keep evolving, and when you start hesitating to ask questions because you already know the answer will be some version of the truth. These are the kinds of relationship conflicts that quietly erode trust and leave one partner constantly questioning reality. We talk about cheating, lies by omission, and the so-called “small” lies that weren’t small at all. We also dig into why some lies hurt more than others—especially when they affect kids, finances, safety, or basic stability. In high conflict relationships, deception isn’t just about dishonesty; it’s about control, avoidance, and taking away someone’s ability to make informed choices inside the relationship. This conversation also connects the dots between early relationship conflict and what often comes later. Many of the same patterns—deflection, denial, selective truth-telling—show up again in separation, co-parenting, and court. What starts as relationship conflicts behind closed doors often becomes high-conflict behavior that follows families for years. This episode is not advice. It’s not about diagnosing anyone, fixing anyone, or telling you what to do. It’s about naming experiences many people in high conflict relationships recognize but struggle to articulate. It’s about separating honest mistakes from repeated deception—and acknowledging the emotional toll of living in a relationship where reality feels unstable.
