Gambling Discrimination

[streazight]

I have. Gambling is very frowned upon in our area, except when you're in your 40s or 50s. People look up to you when you win in gambling, they would always ask for your favors and borrow money but when you're not winning "big", people would always discriminate me like saying I'm a sinful man for gambling and would always incorporate drugs and smoking from their statements, even when I don't even smoke, drink, or do drugs.

People tends to view gamblers as people to avoid. So if they know that you have been going to casino quite often, they will assume that you may go and find them to borrow money so they start to avoid you. There is a lot of people who knows how to gamble within their own means so they wont go and borrow but yet people view them not so.

This has never happened to me since I dont gamble enough. It depends if the person is concerned about you or not. If they concerned for you then I guess its ok. But if they are doing it just to be judgmental then they can go to hell since ita my choice to do so with my life and money as I please.

I suppose its everyone's private prerogative to play or not to play, and you must decide it yourself. But I belive, that some 'weak' people should be limited from gamebling. The question is how to do that.

[dinda22]

it never occurred to me. because I'm playing gambling secretly, because gambling is a bad thing. so I do not want things that you mentioned happen to me.

Have you ever experienced discrimination as a gambler like people are saying a bunch of hurtful stuffs about your gambling hobby.

AND WHAT DO YOU DO IN THESE KIND OF SITUATION?

No big deal for it mate, just leave him or ignore him. Sometimes there not know how to learn some manners. but all will be fine, don't be yours mine. and one day him will be learn from what him was doing.

I think no one will disclose this matter with anyone. Yes, suppose if I say that I am doing gambling means that think bad about me. So many gamblers play gambling very secretly. Only a few people can share their feeling with their loved once. I am also not faced this type of issues. Because I too like to play gambling alone.

As long as you are paying your bills, fulfilling the needs of your family and your own, and you are not addicted to gambling, it is nobody’s business what you do with your spare income.

well, i rarely get anything like that about my gambling. and it is mostly because it is my private affair and it is none of anybody else's business but also it is because i don't gamble that much either.
but those who give you a hard time by saying hurtful things are the worst people to have any connection with.
