Gambling and Relationships!

[sweetbet]

I don't mind going to the casino with someone for a drink and a few games of whatever, but I really hate it when I'm ready to go home, but the other person needs a few more hours of play because they're chasing their losses or believe that their luck will come soon.

My best friend is a gambling addict unfortunately , and he's the one who introduced me at 1st to gambling through websties . We enjoy talking about football and arguing what will happen in certain games all the time and some sort of competition was set between us for who's bet will win . I eventually stopped or kinda kept a slow rhythm of gambling , but he did gamble every day all the day and is actually ruined and got kicked out of his house for unpaid  rents . He stood in my flat for a while then went back to live with his parents in order to cut some of his expenses . I'm looking forward of him giving up gambling because it really ruined his life .

Yeah. Gambling really affect every relationship if its already out of control or seems sound like gambling addiction. Because one thing that makes relationship stronger is when you have time between each other, so if time comes that you often lose time to your partner because you already addicted to gambling then what happens next is that you already making gap to each other  and continually making this situation happen will makes  your partner seek attention to others. That is why many relationship broke because you have no more time for each other.

one thing I can really understand in gambling is that if we are in a scope where most people think gambling is a very bad place then it is certain that if you do, the main thing you will feel is the unhealthy words heard. In addition it is certain you will be ostracized by everyone or be a joke material. Gambling is beneficial, but if we do not understand gambling properly then it is definitely a loss we will always get.

Yes it is same as the fact that when you are successful in your life anyone from your relatives o friends would feel proud to stand by your side but tears and losses are to be handled alone. Gambling is luck based game and so one should put some limits for himself before deciding for the amount to be bet because if you lose, the loss is quite bearable and be able to be compensated via other earning methods most probably a job or business.

I have experience this many times as a land based casino player. I already made a few decent win and sometimes my friends doesn't want to leave before they are trying to recover what they have lost so I become bored that I'm forced to play again and lost my winnings. I hate that feeling. Just this weekends, I have to wait again, but this time since I already won, I went home instead. I don't want to wait a little longer because I know I can't control myself which may resulted in another not good experienced. Good thing I did that. Wake up very happy with money on my wallet.

Anyone who has ever been or are in a committed relationship or marriage where both people gamble? Or in a relationship with a gambler with a friend, best friend, family related etc...  Knowing you are in it together is weird comforting and gives me some sort of undefined explanation.

What does that look like for you? Your experience needs to be heard.

I think it has its advantage and disadvantage. However, it both are too into gambling, there will be a time that the relationship will suffer because of money problems. Unless one of  them is really rich and can afford to gambling along with his wife or husband. Personally, its bad if both are massive gamblers. What will turn out to their children? Gamblers also? Its gonna be weird and a lot of issues a long the way resulting in a divorce or separation.

It's the reason why I never do it. I've done it once with a friend and observed him go from a great mood to like hate towards anyone that tried to advise him. He won some money and then lost it all and we were telling him to leave it as it is and go home with a clean sheet, but he thought that after a losing streak there has to come another winning streak. It never came and we went home without him. Never again.

I think it's hassle if you are going to play gambling with someone. Sometimes it is uncomfortable especially when you are playing and thinking of him that was unfocused for me. And this seems destroyed my game and leading into losses. Sometimes it's better to be alone.

It's difficult for me to find a friend at gambling environment.

This is a place where money matters so expect it that finding a true friend in this environment is like finding a grain of rice in the corn field.

So finding my soulmate become the most rare chance that I'm ever meet.

Why would you find your soulmate in a gambling place, they can even be found on dating sites.

I think it's because of online gambling become difficult to meet face to face and the story will be different if you're doing live gambling.

Not really like that, people on gambling sites are focused on making money not only to chitchat and look for a real love.

All the ladies found in gambling houses are just there for money or prostitution and so they can easily qualify as hustlers and so if you want to find love i don't think any of those ladies are decent enough to be married to.

Not totally "all" the ladies on gambling houses are for money and prostitution. Other ladies are just looking for some entertainment and they think that gambling is the answer for that crave of satisfaction. As for the people that are looking for relationships in those places, you'll having difficulties of finding one.

It's a bit weird though when your relatives or friends is giving you a piece of advice about gambling. I mean, i guess it is weird though when you were both on to gambling and during in a gambling you both enjoyed the game. Playing gambling is more fun to be specially with your friends or relatives as long as both of you doesn't get addicted to gambling because this is a very hard to adjust for both of you.

Gambling shouldn't be mixed with relationships especially family relationships because when things don't go well with you i bet there wuill be family problems especially monitory aspects and you are liable to be called irresponsible.

Women are actually more smarter than men and they know the real benefits of money unlike men, They will not gamble away money that could be used to do something very important no matte how small it is.

Well, the example that you have right there is a very weird relationship but this by every means is possible. I have a neighbor where both of them (couple with 3 kids) are gamblers and they are in a very unusual situation. They know that both of them are gamblers but they see to it that they are always in a different location when they gamble. They said that it is bad luck. Every now and then, they appear to be very normal but rumors go around in our community that both of them are in huge debt and the ones that are being affected by it are their children.

It is happy being in a relationship, especially when you both know that you really love each other but I guess if your relationship will destroy of gambling then that is already not good sign for both of you. If both of you and your gf/bf are both gamblers then I think that is just fine but also limit yourselves so you don't lose much money that you can't afford to lose. If you can both avoid gambling then much better for both of you.

That is bad for the relationship, never allow gambling to control your because once you fall in love with gambling you'll never gonna have time with others anymore. Blame your weakness when you destroyed your relationship because it's not really because of gambling but because of your lack of discipline.

That's the problem when both of you lose for sure you both will find reason to the point that you will exchange bad words thinking each party is the bad luck, its best for only one gambler since this practice isn't good anymore better to adjust and don't allowed your relationship suffered.

My girlfriend (of nearly 10 years) & I both gamble & it doesn’t affect us negatively in any way. We both gamble on football (soccer). She likes horse racing too.

You both are gambling and don’t lose? It is really strange. I am just astonished why it is not affecting you negatively. There is not a single person that is not affected badly with this. Some are affected physically, financially or psychologically. But it definitely affect you as it is harmful. I call it as parasite that resides in you and harm you while showing of such beautiful offers.

My ex boyfriend and his friends will always have this friday session in playing poker.  His friends used to bring their gf and my ex also  was bringing me with him alrhough i dont play poker at all. Some of my ex bf friends gf play with them. I think there is nothing wrong with it. Because they can relate with each other. On the other hand since i dont  know how to play poker i got bored in waiting. I even slept while waiting..

[okissabam]

I don't think its weird although I am not in favor of gambling but if that's what they want like a family member or even close friend of mine is addicted to gambling of course I will advice them to not really get into that kind of hobby. I do have a friend who was close to being addicted to gambling but he decided not to go through that phase because he realized he lost a lot from gambling and have to save a lot of money for his family of 5.

Relationship doesn't have lot to do with gambling. One thing given importance being into gambling is making self decision. At times users go with the decision of friends or people surrounding them. This when ends in loss, tolerance level decreases. For this reason it's good to go with own decision and get the best.

[BitcoinSupremo]

As long as you can keep both things distinctive from each other and give the required time to your family and friends and to gambling the time you have calculate for it should bring you no problems. Problems start to happen when you don't know how to distinguish anymore what is more important for you and when you become gambling addicted and gambling is a god to you. That is when problems start.
