I kept my daughter up, which she loved, until midnight waiting for his return, so he wouldn't disturb her sleep. Now mine is being disturbed.

Everything, everyone says leave. I am thinking hard about it, but I really do love him. He won't get help, dreams of being a world series of poker winner.

Poker is in his blood. His mom deals poker, her boyfriend, a former pit-boss, met her at a casino. The family plays constantly. I believe he should follow his
dream, but not at the expense of life.

I cannot reach him, page him, nothing because his phone is with me, and the casino no longer pages people. I left him 3 days ago, only to return. Tonight I
debate about contacting my mom, this is too much for me to deal with. She
did say I could return, but how do you let go of love?
Your #1 priority is your daughter!!!!! Bring her to your mother's house PERIOD. I suspect that your mother is concerned for her and your well being and continuing to live with circumstances you are in is unfair to your daughter and your mother. Your husband is an addict to gambling. He is being selfish and completely disrespectful to you and his daughter. You are not in love with him, you are in love with the person you want him to be. . .
Thanks for this!
