Dear Queenie,
One day my husband and I planned to meet up at his job to go for lunch, but when I got there he wasn’t there. I called him a couple of times but the calls went to voicemail.
He finally got home at dinnertime and when I asked him where he was he said he was at work all day but his phone battery died.
Queenie, I was there and he wasn’t. Why is he lying to me?—Angry wife
Dear Wife,
Apparently he was elsewhere doing something he does not want you to know about. Have you told him you were there at his job and couldn’t find him? Knowing that might persuade him to ’fess up.
However, you may want to consider seriously whether you want to continue in any kind of relationship with someone whose word clearly cannot be trusted. Give him another chance, but do not tell him he is “on probation,” and see how things work out.
