Lying about Money/Spending

Quote From: britswife

credit cards are the root of all evil.All of the preapproved offers should be illegal. I owe 30 thousand. My husband is a hard worker and for him to find out what I have done will kill him. I can't go back, this is a one way trip. Wouldn't it be great if GOD gave us one shot at going back and erasing only one item in our past.I fear the mail or a phone call will let my secret out and my wonderful husbands world will be destroyed. Is there an easy way to kill my 30 year marriage. How do I really tell him without loosing him.
I was so happy to see your message.  I am in the same shoes as you. I too have racked up huge amounts of credit card debt and kept it from my husband out of fear.  No one understands this and I feel completely isolated.  I finally broke down and told my husband back in October.  Our marriage has been rocky ever since.  He has lost all trust in me.  He fills deceived and betrayed.  I look at him and can't imagine how I could possibly have done this to the man I love.  I wish I had some great advice for you, some wise words to help you through, but I don't.  I hope it helps on some level to know that you are not alone, someone else understands where you are.  I don't know where this will lead us, but the bottom line is enough is enough and whatever wounds we have to heal to get rid of this addiction, we must do.  I wish you all the luck in the world.  Sending courage and strength to you.
