I have been dating the same girl for the past 4 yrs now and we have 2 Casinos that have opened not very far from the house. We live in what is called a dry county, no liquor can be purchased, but they sell liquor at the Casino. She would say lets go to the Casino a get a beer. We started going to the Casino couple yrs ago and would spend $20 and go home. I feel it has gotten way out of control for her. She has spent in excess of $15,000 in the past yr alone,money she got in a divorce settlement, $2500 in Jan alone, and that is all she thinks about these days going to the Casino. I have left her, more than once for this but still get back with her, on several occasions she would not meet me when she said she would then later tell me she was at the Casino all night. She now spends $300 - $500 a night. It is very heart wrenching for me as I care a great deal for her but there seems nothing I can do about it. I read the 20 questions and she would answer yes to about 13 of them. I need help dealing with this. I cannot even stand listening to the commercials for the Casino anymore. When I told her I hated the Casino her comment to me was "good I wont have to see you there when I go" That was the last straw. Where do I turn. HELP!!!!!!!
