Oh wow. Do you love your husband? Was he a gambler before you married him? Well, its hard to get those answers to me so I will just throw some things out there for you to think about. The decision will be yours to make anyway, so I will just give you some things to consider.
If you love him, fight for your marriage. Gambling is like any other addiction. I think they do have ways of dealing with it but I'm not sure how. We have a casino in our area now & I see phone numbers all over the place for people to call if they have a problem. Even though he is the gambler, it is a problem for you as well. Call one of those numbers & if they can't help you, they will hook you up with someone who can.
If you no longer want to be with the husband, then file for divorce. Don't move anyone else in until it is final.
Remember this. The widower is 63 years old & probably set in his ways. He lives with his sister & you don't mention why. Is he a caretaker for her? Is he just another loser looking for a woman to care for him? Sorry to sound so harsh but there are men out there like that & you don't need another headache. Maybe he can't afford to be on his own...if so then you are stuck with another guy who keeps you broke.
You also need to remember that when you first meet someone new, they are on their best behavior. So are you! You are both trying to make a good impression. You won't know what each other are really like until you have been around each other for a while. If you decide to divorce, don't move him in. Not until you have weathered a few storms together & you are satisfied he's for you.
Best of luck! ]
