The hardest thing for me about changing who I was and how I felt about myself, was really taking a hard look at myself. It sucked, I fought it, but I finally did it and I didn't like what I saw. Recognizing that I am the cause of most of my problems was the first step.
Wasn't speaking in terms of gender. In an ideal relationship, each partner should compliment the other. I may be weak in certain areas, so ideally, my partner should be stronger in those areas.
Been spending way too much time here. Hope everything has been going good for you. There's a thread on Iran somewhere around here that got pretty interesting.
So lying is ok as long as it is keeping him out of trouble? If he were really that afraid of losing his job, he would be open to suggestions on how to do it better.
If he were admitting his mistakes, I would say work with him. He is lying to your face eveytime he says "wasn't me". Why do you want someone working for you with no integrity?
Since there can be no mistake as to what is happening because of secret passwords, the man is lying to you and to the big boss. Is that really someone that you want working for you?
If everyone would admit to their mistakes and take personal responsibility for their actions, wouldn't this be a wonderful world? Unfortunately, the only fantasy island I am aware of on this planet is inside the I-495 loop.
