Some lie to cover an embarrassing situation or to gain acceptance.

It's all in the mind...... mind over matter. If you know you're lying and you're still doing it is your own choice.

blaming an illness for your choice of actions is just an asinine lame excuse.

Yes, there are bad pathological liars and I know one, he's an officemate of mine. He's got a lot of failed relationships and friendships because he is such a bad liar, that's how bad he is. Almost everyday he lies that he beat a jeepney barker or "konduktor" or the driver himself, or that he disarmed a "holdaper" carrying a pretty long knife. And that he also disarmed a bad guy with a gun. And all other stupid lies that are really2x obvious. I think he can't help it, he just needs to lie because his day is incomplete without lying. He is also a "Mr. know-it-all" type of guy.

Well I guess I am right in saying that he sounds PATHETIC and PITIFUL.
Luoy lang.
Grabe gyud kaayo ang tawo nga maka-antos og ingani nga klaseng tawo.

Otherwise, if you want this situation fixed.
Let that person make peace with his situation.
Let that person know that everyone know he is only lying.

Lastly, there are other methods of handling bad situations compared to lying.

I have married a pathological liar but still Im in love with her.

As the saying goes, "Love conquers all.". It all starts from there. It is very crucial that their support network deeply understands the situation. It's pathological so it means there's a cure and that's the good thing. Honestly, this is a clear case scenario of ADHD and lying is just a secondary manifestation. The person has to be fully aware of himself/herself first and the implications of his/her actions. A confrontational type of approach wouldn't really work and it may just make things even worse. A consultational may, however, prove to be effective as it encourages them to open up more and get to the bottom of why they had to lie. This is a very long process and may take months or years to accomplish. Time may come that you might get frustrated but if you really care for the person, you will have to bear with anything that goes along the way.
