I have been married for 20 years. We had a great marriage until the economy crashed. We went into biz for ourselves because we couldn't find jobs. I hid from him how bad off we were doing financially for several years. By the time I came clean, we were $30k in debt with credit cards. He didn't speak to me for 3 days and discussed the idea of divorcing me with his Mother but she talked him out of it.
Fast forward 2 more years and I have made it much worse. He thinks the credit cards have been paid off; they haven't. On top of that, we sold our house and he thinks we have $60k in the bank and we only have $30k. There is no way I will ever be able to pay off the cards and double what is in our account by the time he wants to buy another house next year.
If I tell him the truth he will leave me for sure. Of course I completely deserve it for deceiving him. I know I need to tell him but I am terrified of the outcome. What do I do?
