My boyfriend thinks I'm wrong for not telling him I did'nt graduate. I told him I was going to college but I really was going to school to get my GED and just so happen he look through my shcool work and he found out, this was in the beginning when we first met. Now the reason why I did'nt tell him I did'nt graduated was b/c I had an relationship b/f him. I told my ex about me not graduating and he through it up in my face all the time and that hurted me for someone that said they love me to do that to me. Now I completed the 12th grade I just did'nt past the math part on the test. So my boyfriend thinks I'm wrong and should have told him no matter what. I was going to tell him just when I felt the time was right I did'nt want to get hurt again. And I did he did the same thing, he through it in my face. He said the reason why is b/c i did't tell him in the beginning. What should I do??????

All you can do is tell him why you didn't tell him in the beginning. I can understand why you didn't tell in the beginning, but that wasn't the way to start a relationship. Good luck to you in everything.

Well I'm not going to be ganging up on you or anything, but well it's not a huge deal to tell someone that you are getting your GED, I mean you should be proud that your trying to get some sort of degree. But well you do have the right to privacy and it's not his problem but yours that your doing this, so if you didn't want him to know you didn't have to tell him. But well I mean it's not a huge deal, I mean not alot of people actually graduate, I even learned that people at graduation, half of them have their names called, but they really don't get anything at all. They are just there to fool the crowd of how many students in thier "perfect" school graduated. So well remember your not the only one, but at least your one of the few that is trying to get your life together again and doing it. So well let your boyfriend calm down and try to reason with him that it was none of his business to begin with, but you did intend to tell him when you were ready, if he still can't accept that, then just suggest he thinks about why he likes you, because at this point he isn't showing it.

get over it and resolve never to lie again. Whats to be embarrassed about? I went back and got my grade 12 as an adult. I told everyone. An education is never something to be ashamed of. So what that he finished school when he "should" have. Everyone has a different way of learning, you just needed to be older. There is no shame in that.

He is wrong for throwing that in your face, but he has a reason to be mad at you for lying to him about going to college. Look once a liar always a liar. Maybe thats how he feels that if you lied to him aboout something small like that, then you would really lie if you thought you had to. Also you was puting on a front to make yourself look like someone you was'nt. Be yourself.

Tell the turkey in no uncertain terms he needs to get a life!!! He's not relating to your degree or lack thereof. If he's so shallow as to get upset about that, he's just looking for something to get his underwear in a bunch about. Yuck. Look, the best thing you can do for yourself is require respect and consideration from guys. If they don't meet your standards, tell 'em "hit the road, toad."

tell him that you were embarrassed about not graduating and that is why you didn't say anything and tell him what happened with your last relationship and how it was thrown in your face. But good for you to go for your GED!

I am guessing it is a trust issue. You should have been up front with him. Now that you weren't completely honest about this he will wonder what else you have lied about and now he will have a hard time trusting you.

Be truthful in the future. Explain to your b/f why you lied about it (past experience) and that you're sorry you didn't give him the chance to be more understanding than your last b/f was.

If theres no truth in a relationship then it is doomed to fail.
Truth always and if they really care for you they wont throw it back in your face.
