There is nothing worse than when your boyfriend keeps breaking his promises, even though he says that he won’t ever do it again.

And you know that he will. Because he lies, over and over and over. And you have been there for every one one of them.

Are you sick of it? Do you wish, more than anything that, because your boyfriend keeps breaking his promises, there might be something that you can do to change things?

I get it. Who wants to be with someone who won’t do what they say they will do?

Here are 5 things to do if your boyfriend keeps breaking his promises so that you can deal with it and decide next steps.

#1 — Don’t take it personally.

First and foremost, I would encourage you to try not to take the fact that your boyfriend keeps breaking his promises personally.

People who are liars are liars. They lie indiscriminately. They lie about where they have been. They lie about the color of the sky. They lie about what they had for dinner.

People who lie are often people who are very insecure and they lie to protect themselves, their reputation and their place in the world.
