Hi, I found out my husband has been lying to me about his gambling - probably since he was last caught and had counselling.
I caught him in a bookmakers on the slot machine after seeing his car and thinking he was in the bakery.
I’ve been lying to myself for a long time.
Now it’s out I’m finding it hard to see a way forward. I’m heartbroken. My life feels in pieces
