People don't fall "out of love." After a time, the passion cools and they have to deal with one another as they really are, not as they tried to present themselves to each other. All pretense ends at some point and then, true love happens.

fessing up and telling the truth puts the brakes on...
continuing lies (one lie always leads to another, otherwise)..the truth may hurt, but the healing it brings is worth it...

For almost every situation, this is absolutely true. There can be some
situations where honesty isn't good for the parties concerned, but this is usually only in cases of protection from horrible truths.

 MandaLee, sometimes its hard to fess up.   The longer you wait, the harder it gets.

I know a guy in a sticky situation who won't be honest

With his wife about some things he's involved in. He thinks she won't understand. He doesn't want the drama it will cause to confess the truth.

I still think the TRUTH is the only way to go though.
