Hi,
I've been reading the threads on both sides of this forum for several months and finally made the decision to sign up. My husband is a CG and although things are pretty good between us right now (he's not gambling, has self-excluded, has sought counselling, finances are all in my control, has been like this for about 2 years) it just feels like the problem is always there, lurking. I still see the CG persona coming out from time to time with the lies and the scornful attitude to me, who dares to question it and I'm just so tired of all the BS. I'll post a more specific thread soon about what finally led me to join the site but for now - I think it will help me to share my burden when I need to and I also hope, having been though a lot (and learned a lot) that maybe I can offer some support to others. Thanks for reading x
Hi Never Ending Story, please tell us your experience if you can and what you have learned from living with a CG. I'm the parner of a CG and he seems to be doing fine. But the constant worry that he will relapse again it is srill there...very frustrating...I feel like SCREAMING sometimes.
Hi, I am a wife of CG who refuses help and says he will stop but shows no signs yet.It was your comment about the 'scornful attitude towards you' that struck a chord, I get that alot and it is horrible and hurtful. The lies also get to you eh ? I haven't told family or friends but at least on here I am can feel that I am not alone. I hope you can get some support on here .
