The bone marrow transplant made me laugh. Way to go, not enabling him. Hang in
there.

MY cg husband is going to Las Vegas next week (we live in TX) - he plays amateur
league pool and is going there to compete - so he is pretending he won't gamble
while he is there. His parents will even be there, and they know how bad he is,
and no one thinks its a problem except me. Everyone here thinks a trip to las
vegas is terribly exciting. I'd rather have a bone marrow transplant than go
there. And frankly I'm sick of hearing about it. Of course, he can't seem to get
enough money to take with him. Says he will need money for food and hotel -
complete  bulls#$%. Doesn't matter because I'm not giving him a dime, and I'm
not answering the phone if he calls - I KNOW that would be a mistake.

Hi Carmen,

You go girl! I too feel the same way. I don't care if my cg husband stops or
plays all i know is that i don't share the same feeling as him and i see his
behavior as wrong. I have now moved out of the house with my 2 kids and let the
house foreclosed. This is a fresh start for me and my 2 kids. Let me tell you
that it feels good to go to work and come home and not having to worry where you
cg husband is? Even though i work long hours but i am not complaining because i
am not up all night worrying where the hell my cg husband is.

The bottom line for me is that i deserve a life without gambling for me and my 2
kids.

HE STILL GAMBLING BUT IT SEEMS LESS BUT THAT IS NOT ENOUGH FOR ME. HE SAYS ITS A
PROCESS FOR HIM AND THAT HE CANNOT STOP COMPLETLY FROM ONE DAY TO ANOTHER
BECAUSE HE JUST CANNOT!!! HE SAYS HE WILL STOP GOING LESS AND LESS TO THE
CASINO'S. I FRANKLY DONT DONT HAVE ANY MORE HOPE OR FAITH, I HAVE CAME TO THE
CONCLUSION THAT SOMETIMES I JUST DONT CARE ANYMORE AND I SEND HIM VIBES AND
FEELING THAT I DONT CARE BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE ITS HIS PROBLEM AND NOT MINE. IM
TRYING TO LIVE MY LIFE AND DOING THINGS FOR MYSELF AND IF ONE DAY HE STOPS
GAMBLING AND IM STILL HERE OK; AND IF ONE DAY I DECIDE TO LEAVE MY HUSBAND THAN
THATS OK ALSO. I AM OUT OF IDEAS AND ENERGY AND FAITH, I JUST LET HIM BE BUT I
DONT LET HIM HAVE ACCESS TO MY MONEY, IF HE WANTS TO GO DOWN THEN HE AINT TAKING
ME DOWN, AS HE KNOWS... THANKS FOR LISTENING AND LET ME VENT TONIGHT
