The way for a husband not to provide living expenses to his wife is through negotiation. If negotiation fails, he can file a lawsuit with the court. Husband and wife have the obligation to support each other. The party in need of support may request payment of corresponding support fees when the other party fails to fulfill their support obligations.
If the woman has disabilities, serious illnesses, or other conditions, it is illegal for the husband not to pay for living expenses, because according to the relevant provisions of our Civil Code, husband and wife have the obligation to support each other. When one spouse fails to fulfill their obligation of support, the other spouse has the right to demand payment of support.

Generally, joint property cannot be divided within marriage, except for the following major reasons that do not harm the interests of creditors:
1. One party has committed serious acts that harm the interests of the joint property of the couple, such as hiding, transferring, selling, damaging, squandering the joint property of the couple, or forging joint debts of the couple;
2. If one party has a legal obligation to support a person who suffers from a serious illness and needs medical treatment, and the other party does not agree to pay the relevant medical expenses.
The law allows for the division of property in the above-mentioned situations, which means that in order to prevent the improper reduction or protection of the equal right of both spouses to dispose of property due to the malicious behavior of one party, if there are significant reasons stipulated by law during the existence of the marital relationship, one spouse may claim the division of joint property from the people's court.

The handling of gambling debts within marriage is that there is no need to repay them, as gambling debts are illegal debts that are not protected by law and can be left unpaid. And gambling debts are unreasonable expenses of one party, which should be borne by the borrower themselves, and the other party does not need to bear the responsibility of repayment. The proof of one party's gambling debt can be collected as follows:
1. Text messages or phone conversations sent before and during the borrowing process;
2. Testimony from witnesses who have no vested interests at the time of borrowing;
3. Evidence left after communication with the borrower, such as telephone recordings.
