    I got a big problem my hands...

    File for a restraining order, depending where you live, there might be some staker laws that will help you. I will also recommend to involve your wife as much as you can in your entertaining world. Perhaps she can accompany you to your presentations, help you manage your carreer, etc.

    There is an underlying question: Why does he feel the need to lie? Is he affraid of your reaction? Does he feel you are going to blow things out of proportion and freak out if you find something out? If you don't know, simply ask him. People lie for a reason, no jut for the heck of it. If you...
