Why Do Boys Lie???

My boyfriend of 2 months has no problem telling me about ex girlfriends, and I would totally be lieing if I said that I didn't mind. But anyways. He told me about a girl that he knows, and how for about three weeks a year ago they spent a lot of time together, and the night before he left to go to Navy boot camp, they had sex. A few days ago, I went into a store leaving him in the car, and returned to him on the phone. I asked who he was talking to, and he put the phone to my ear and said "Say hello, and ask who it is". Well, it turned out it was that particular girl(whom he talks about frequently). Jokingly, I said very loud so that she could hear me,"Is that the infamous_____, the one you slept with?" Now I know I was in the wrong there, but all of a sudden I heard her say NO very loud and he bacame very ancy. After that he told me to shut up. I asked what the hell was going on, and he told me, she just doesn't remember. Then he said that it was either her or another one of his previous female friends that he had sex with that particular night, but either way the girl on the phone and him ended up sleeping in the same bed that night and as he put it "got each other off" I have always thought the stories of his past were far fetched, and he has a story for every experience in life you can imagine. He tells me a lot about himself and his past and sometimes his story changes, I am not sure if he is lieing or if he is just trying to impress me, but now this phone incident validates my concerns. Is he just a BIG FAT LIAR??? I would appreciate any advice any one is willing to give. SoCali4niaqt@aol.com

You've only been with him two months? Why stay? Don't tell me you love him, ok. Everyone says that, but I question if it is really love. But what I want you to think about is - what do you get out of this relationship? He kisses and tells, or he lies, either way, doesn't speak highly of his character.
