I am discovering that my husband is not a CG! He must have really loved me to have gone with me all these years. He talks to me about gambling, but he is not having urges or really any problems with quitting.. He looks at me like I have two heads when I tell him I want to gamble. Apparently he would have been ok to stop anytime. I would pitch some amazingly awful fits to get him to tae me. I will spare you on some of the lies I would tell him about the bills in order to let him think we could afford it. Basically, I need the help in quitting and he needs to learn to stand up to me. He wanted to keep me happy so he went along with my scheming. He never has wanted the responsibility of the household finances, so it was easy for me to dig this hole so deep. Now, I m not saying that he didn’t spend a lot too, but he was just as happy to play the games for free on the computer. He trusted me to not take out more than we could afford. Then I would “remember” all the bills on the way home. It is truly a time of reflection right now in our house. He is growing a backbone and I am working on humility.
