Jitters

Okay I have been with my kids father for over 15 years on and off and we know eachother like a book! I truly love him even though I have had several trust issues in the past but the main thing though is that he is so bad with money. We have talked about marriage several times and the one main thing that scares me is that he may not be able to provide for me and the kids. He smokes and drinks and no matter what I say or do he is going to do what he wants. So of course alot of his money goes to his habits. He is a great father but I am stuck between should I continue on with him and spend another 15 years doing the same thing or should I move on.

 

He is currently on child support for 2 other kids that were before mine so he does not bring home much money to begin with. Then after he gives me money he pretty much spends it on whatever else. What should I do. I love him but do not want to marry someone that will not be able to provide for me and my kids. I do work and will continue to do so. But ladies what do you feel about this situation. I know that everyone has a weakness and I try to tell myself that this is his and that we just have to work with it but after all this time nothing has changed.
