IMP- Thanks for your reply. I see what you're saying. He has always gambled (office pools, occassional trip to the track), but didn't develop a real problem with it until 3 or so years ago. I guess I'm thinking that he's been in a MLC and started to use gambling as an escape and it got out of control. He does attend GA meetings twice a week and he says he is doing well, but I have a hard time REALLY believing it since he was doing that when he slipped before. I know that I can't control what he does and I have to find a way to trust him again if things are ever going to work out between us.
I have not attended any al-anon or gam-anon meetings, although I know I should. I will try to check out the book you recommended. Thanks.
