I'm currently involve with someone who is gambling addict. We been together for over two years and we are getting marry in Sept 2012. I don't know what to do. I want to postpone the wedding because it scares me that things will get worse. I love him so much and I really want to help him. He tells me that he knows that he has a problem and that he will get help and two years have passed and nothing. He then says that he can do it on his own. He tries really hard and doesn't gamble for 2-3 months and then goes back to the same thing. I lost count on how many times I had to bail him out. I am so tired, angry, depress, and sad.. I don't want to leave him because he is my soulmate and I know that we can overcome this, but there are days that all I want to do is leave and get away. I'm so lost... Plus we own a house together, but this was before I knew that he was a gambling addict. It saddens me that this beautiful relationship that we have will come to an end for an addiction. I really don't know what to do and I know that if he doesn't get some help it will only get worse with time. I really don't know what my ending will be, but I wish everyone of you the best of luck. AG
