Need advice

So, I’ve been married for coming on up 2 years in October, together 3. We had a baby boy he’s 18 months old. Amazing baby boy, anyways,, my husband started gambling really fkn bad, which lead to also lying about fkn everything. Funny because he didn’t use to be like that up until about a year ago. I tell him all the time he sucks at lying, and he does. I don’t want to be in a marriage with someone I cannot trust. I definitely don’t want to be in a marriage where we aren’t growing together. Especially with a fkn lying ass mofo. I’ve only been married this once, and I’m almost 37.

He works his ass off, let’s me stay at home with the baby, but the lying is killing me, his truck broke down a couple months ago, so he’s using my car for work, so we have no car to get anywhere, he’s spending money we don’t have, lying about it, still fkn gambling. He won’t call the gamblers anonymous, won’t let me take over the finances. He says he doesn’t feel like a man if I take over the finances, my opinion, he just doesn’t want to stop gambling.

Point is, I was in a very toxic relationship with my ex for 17 years, (never married him thank goodness). High school sweetheart blah blah bullshit. It was a living hell, and I had 2 boys with that idiot. 17 and 16 years old now. After I left that awful relationship, I always promised myself after that relationship, id never take no shit from another man, nor would I settle for anything less. What the hell should I do? I’m so lost, tired, exhausted, and tired of the fkn lying.
