Come to find out hes about 13 years older than us, and lives half way across the country. When i ask my fiancee about it, he says, "i met him in high school, and now play WOW with him"

I now know this is a lie too. Fiance sent him a message saying i didn't want him there or something. So this guy sends me a facebook message, saying sorry "i know its awkward for you to want someone to come when he only knows me from WOW."

I'm furious. I'm sick of lies. It always little lies with him. Especially when its such a stupid thing to lie about to begin with. I'm about to call it quits. My question is, am i over reacting? Its not what it was over, but that he lied to begin with and when he had the opportunity to tell the truth he still didn't.

Thanks for any input.

These are huge red flags.

Marry him at your own risk, we warned you!

I never date anyone who is into WOW or heavily involved in gaming. They live in a fantasy world and their addiction can be harder to overcome than alcohol or drugs.

WOW HAS DESTROYED YOUR MARRIAGE!

To be honest, u have to take it into account with the whole picture. Is the rest of your relationship good? is he willing to work on his wow obsession? His habitual lying is a serious problem.

Frankly, I dont think it is hard at all. But if ease or difficulty were the only factor, the Devil would have never invented lies...Lol
I believe it is just the desire to avoid a consequence or to intrigue. Just my take on it.

Does he not have real friends that live around you that he could ask to be a groomsmen? And if he lies all the time, he'll continue lying even after you get married.
It's an online World of Warcraft Game.
