It appears that unless he seeks help for himself (or you quit supporting him) nothing will change. I can't imagine how you two manage. You must make tons of money. We both hold well paid full time professional jobs yet we have not much money for extras.

No I don't make tons of money. Only bring home about $60,000 a year. I have just never been a spender and had so much money saved before I met him. Key word there is "had" money saved. A lot of that is gone now, but I still have a reserve. My monthly paycheck can usually cover everything, but I still need to withdraw about $500/month from my savings to help make ends meet if I don't get any help from him. I am definitely not adding anything to my account having him around. thank god I have my 401k at work. that's up over $100,000

Of course, I can't touch any of that for another 15 years.
