My fiance and I are getting married next month. He is a huge gambler. He bets almost every game of football, and goes to the OTB (Off Track Betting) to gamble on horse racing. He will watch countless hours of football from preseason all the way to the superbowl, betting every chance he gets. The only catch is, he makes a ton of money at his job and always has enough money to pay the bills and not go into debt. I'm not a gambler though, and I find it difficult to watch the betting consume so much of his time and money. I think it's getting excessive. I've tried to talk to him about it and he gets really defensive and argues that I shouldn't get on his case because all the bills are paid and he just gambles for fun. I just don't know if we should get married since we have an extremely different opinion about this issue, and it's starting to somewhat drive a wedge between us. I need to hear someone else's perspective on this please.
