My husband is on the road a lot as a long haul trucker and when he hits the prairies, there are VLT machines everywhere and he gambles. This time it was only $300 but we can't afford it. I'm nine months pregnant and don't need this stress. He once lost over $10K in a summer before I met him... I just went through hell to get a home equity loan so we'd have money to fix up the place for the baby, and now this.... He seems to think if he tells me about it right away I shouldn't get mad ("at least I was honest about it!") and that I shouldn't get upset because we're doing okay. He can't change jobs cuz we financed the truck he drives over 7 years and would take a devastating hit if we sold it. The gambling episodes are coming closer and closer together and I'm scared for him - and for me. Please help, I feel very alone
