And so velvet. Why does my mom and sister insist that my boyfriend doesnt know about all this?
1. How is it even possible? We live together and share everything so its hard to keep this from him when I am constantly watching my dads account and stressing out about all this?
2. They keep saying he shouldnt know and my sister specifically feels as tho her boyfriend and so therefore mine too might feel like they can use this against us somehow?
So because my dad gambled again just a few min ago and therefore I had to call my sister to go catch him. But instead she waited at home for him and tried to coerce him to come home via text. But anyway how can I hide this even if I wanted to from my boyfriend when I am having such urgent conversations with my sister. So its not only impractical and unrealistic but shouldnt relationships be built on trust? And call me naive but I wouldnt use this against my boyfriend if he was going thru the same thing. I would instead do my best to help him cope with it. So please let me know if I should be aware of any special circumstances where I need to cover this up from my boyfriend.
Lastly my sister is still in denial and does seem a bit reluctant to get more information about gambling addiction because she doesnt think we have all the facts just yet. She is adamant I do not tell mom. At least not yet. She says for moms sake and for her wellbeing not to stress her out with details. What do you suggest?
