partner to a gambler - aMstitelima - 22-08-2011

I have found out that my partner has been gambling & he said he doesnt want to go to a GA meeting because they dont work as hes been before but he does want to stop, what can i do as he's been saying for the past year that hes stopping & he relapses every week (usually on the weekend) im at the end of my tether i honestly dont know how to help him.
am i being nieve thinking he will stop?? surely if you wanted to stop you would do everything in your power to do so. He says i dont understand & maybe i dont fully understand the mind of a gambler so if anyone can help it would be appreciated thanks <!-- sSmile --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /><!-- sSmile -->
