How do I make my boyfriend stop his deception?

My boyfriend from California moved across country (I'm in NY) and moved in with me and my two sons. He was out of work out there and still out of work here.. I just got him a few hours a week at the office I work at. He never talks about his family I ask about them and he just says I dont know. I have never met anyone in his family, I have never spoke to anyone in his family. I used to buy him pizza and such every Friday when he was in California. Bought him a computer and a laptop for his birthday, he is loving and says ll the right things, but whenever I asked him what did you do today he would always say look for a job or spent day with Mom, or just nothing. He left his cell phone in my car I looked up a picture of my son to email it to myself and he had pictures of all these people on there. His Mom his sister.. who he says he doesnt talk to. He had all these calls from them he told me he doesnt talk to them. He has been telling his mom he came out here for a job and she doesnt know about him even having a girlfriend. She asked him told him how much she missed him, wanted to make sure he was ok he just said he was busy working and no girlfriend. I shouldnt have read the texts but all the secrecy just overwhelmed me. I have him living with me and my children. I was curious about him. I also found out he set up a emeting with his ex a few days before the big move out here.. This is the woman who broke his heart yada yada. I KNOW READING HIS MESSAGES WAS WRONG.. But isnt it wrong to tell your family a bunch of lies and lie to me about everything for over a year? Do I tell him I know everything and tell him he has to be honest and give him a chance or just make him move back to California. I feel like he is a shamed of me and just using me for money. =( I wish I hadnt ever been curious about his life and relationship with his family. I jsut wanted to be a part of his life. Now I feel like Im some dirty secret.

Update:

jasmine.. he wasnt a stranger to me we have been together for over 1.5 years, I never said I thought I was ugly. And I am not ..

    You can't. Guys who lie don't change. Either accept it or find anew guy.

    Sounds like he's an extremely private individual, but his privacy is coming out as lies and deception. Best thing you can do is talk with him about it. It might boil into an argument, but arguments are an excellent way to get things out in the open (if done with a cool head without emotional reaction; obviously, not an easy thing to do.)

    If that doesn't work, you're probably better off finding someone else.

    A man who lies to everyone is a problem, how could you believe him when he's telling the truth? It's possible that he is using you for your gifts and that is unfortunate. I think it's a good thing that you found out he's a liar and you ask yourself if this relationship is worth being lied to.

    If he lies to he's mother and has been with you for a year and she has no clue you exist that's a problem that could mean he doesn't see a future with you or that he doesn't take this relationship seriously.

    I do wish you love, no matter what though no matter what you decide to do.

    Maybe he hasn't told hes family because they'd go nut that you have kids or something cuz some folk are like that but it still doesn't explain why he's lied to you. As it is I can only give him possible reason for lying to one party but why is he lying to you? For your sake and that of your kids, cut him loose. He isn't trying to get a job, he's living on easy street out of your purse. I'm sorry but you can get better than him. Move on and hold your head high.

    There is no future here. He is lying to all parties and that is never a good thing. All traits point to the fact that he uses people. Confront him and ask him about all of this. See what he says.

    Yeah, he is using you for money, plus you are treating him like he is your son. Plus, if you think you are ugly then he must think you are too.

    Just make sure your kids are safe you brought a stranger to you house so that means you are dumb and ugly.
