Hi
My husband is a gambler and i feel so alone with this problem. It has been going on for a while and he is full of remorse when it happens, he promises the world and then lets me down again. I have zeeo trust in him now, i’m scared as we have a joint bank account. I have no one i can turn to, i have a brother who i’m very close to but feel ashamed to tell him whats going on. I do love my husband but i cant see how we can work when i dont trust him.
Thank you for your reply.
I am sorry things have turned out like that for you. I do love him but do not trust him, i dont know if he would give me his debit card but i am taking steps to control everything else. I hope this may be the final wake up call he needs and he finally looks for help but i’m so exhausted by it all
I know how you feel, I'm going through the same with my husband.
He's given me control of all finances... But who knows?! Lots of lies. I contacted Gam Care and they have put me in touch with a special professional counselling service in my area. I am expecting my first telephone session at 5pm today. I just feel the trust has completely gone. I did watch the video the other Poster has recommended but this is something my other half has had many opportunities to sort out in the past, he has been left with nothing, no family, lost us but after a little break I took him back, the promises to get this sorted out subsided and now I'm back here again... Left in turmoil while he acts like he's minimising the effect its had on me. He's supposed to be having the same counselling too but he's got no appointment planned as far as I'm aware as yet and say GA isn't for him. It's the trust that's gone and beginning to not like him as a person for what he's done. How are you feeling today? It hits you with waves day after day. You're not alone anyway.
