Im a 53 yr old female who has been married for 25 yrs . We bought our home 26 yrs ago and lived in our home together, raised our children in this home we built together, that I loved very much. But one day my husband found that gambling was more important to him. It was the most hurtful thing I ever went through. Trusting your partner to always protect you and be there for you. I never thought this could happen to me. I worked a full-time job my whole life to provide for our family just to lose it all because someone i trusted lied to me, hid things from me, hurt me emotionally ,mentally and financially. I feel I have let my children down by not being more prepared for this sort of thing. But I never would of imagined this. Never. Im lost and homeless. Couch surfer i call myself now. It's sad. I cry almost eberyday.
Im not interested in handouts really just emotional support really. I will work my way back to where I was. I have a lot of free time to work more now that my children are older and live on their own.
