I know how you feel - I was in a smilar situation when I was younger- I almost married a gambler- he racked up bills on my cards and left me about $10K in debt and with a car I had to pay $500 a month for- he tried to convience me he would make the payments- thank god I didn't listen
You are strong for walking away- you will be so much happier
I would never even date a gambler after what I went thru
it was such a horrible way to live- he would lose $2k in a week - try to win in back- and end up losing $5k- it was never ending
you deserve better and you will find it sorry that you had to learn this the hard way- but better now then 2 kids later Beth

I'm so sorry that you had to go through all of that, on top of ending your engagement. But it sounds like you are walking away a smarter, stronger person who is going to follow their dreams. What a happy ending! I admire you for your strength in what was a horrible situation. Good luck to you!

Re: It's over for good!
You know, I met you on this wonderful site and then we got to know each other so well and I *REALLY* think this is a blessing in disguise. You have the most beautiful heart and you deserve all the happiness in the world. When you told me about it all, I felt like a big weight had been lifted off of you literally.
Because you're taking care of yourself right now, everything else will fall into place. You know it and I know it - this is the first step toward peace. Good luck - you're the best!

Re: It's over for good!
Thank-you ladies so much for everything. I love you all. Trust me, it was really, really hard in the beginning. I don't know how I got the strength, but someone up above is watching out for me. I wish I had my eyes open earlier. That good for nothing put me through an engagement party. But you know what, I would have paid 100,000 to get him out of my life. One of the things that ***** is that although I do believe in love somewhat...it's gonna be really, really hard to trust any man now. If the one person I thought would never hurt me goes ahead and does, what's to say that the next won't. I guess as time passes things will get better.
