Hi Caroline,
There is always hope, but it is hard. I have been married to a CG for more than 20 years. We have to wonderful little boys aged 7 and 9 who hate to see us argue, and when we do they start crying real loud and beg us not to split.
Unfortunately we had to start over 3 times because of gambling bets. Declared bankruptcy once: it was very hard.
Unfortunately with gambling also comes compulsive lying… That hurts even more…
Hang in there…
