I'm not sure how this works, or even if it will .... I'm about to loose my partner.
I feel gutted and that my life is ruined i thought i had. A grip of this but i clearly haven't
I used my mobile in his name to deposit 220 pounds on Friday
He had the email to say our phones would be cut off
He's currently at his mum's being unable to trust me
Anything greatly received
I cant loose him
TIA naomi
Hi Naomi, sorry about the mess you find yourself in. What do you mean by 'I had a grip of this'? Had you stopped gambling? Do you want to stop gambling? You cannot control your partners actions, but you can control your own. If you want to stop you need to stop your access to money, and access to your means of gambling. Gam care can arrange counselling to support you, and help you understand why you gamble. Look for your local GA meeting, it can be a bit daunting to walk through the door the first time, but it is worth it. Maybe if your partner sees that you are seriously trying to tackle this he may stick around. You have lied to him and stolen from him, you cannot expect him to be happy at the moment, give him time to cool off. Best wishes.
I had stopped but a series of events kicked me off again, i have contacted local councilling i found online I'm currently closing down all of my accounts and looking to get a basic post office account as i feel i can't trust my self with a debit card .... I was going to ask him to take control but he doesn't want to come home .... Currently trying to distract my self writing budgets to get out of this mess
I just hope i can fix this
Affected by gambling?
