Shyness in gambling

[bncbnc]

Yes I actually had that exact same feeling before, I felt so shy gambling in casinos and I would even look out if I know someone who’s playing too so they wouldn’t see me. But that feeling of shyness eventually fade away as I grew older especially when my aunt bring me to casinos with her whenever she flies back here in our country. But on gambling casino sites, at first I was afraid to gamble but after my first attempt I wasn’t shy at all and I was thinking no one knows its me not unless I announce it on the chat box.

Maybe you really should not be gambling then, because since you are not proud of what you are doing to the extent that you do not want a fellow gambler to see you whether you know them or not, then why do it in the first place. Have you forgotten that the person you may know if present in a casino actually came there to have some fun gambling in the first place and you would rather both just accept your fate and see that you both share something in common without any form of being shy ?

Actually I am little bit confused about your CommNet. It really non-understandable but what I have perceived from your statement is, if a person knows some other gambler but he doesn’t want to recognize in public, this is really bad. And you know the reason is just your shyness because you might have been lost your money in front of him. So why to shy? You did wrong now face it.

That is different from place to place, in some place specially where gambling is not legal, there people usually want to play gambling as anonymous, they do not what other people know about his gambling, therefore if he is playing gambling in front of a person who know him he must by feeling shy, some time when we use to play gambling in a new place we even then feel shyness and do not feel confident.

The social impact that would have been caused if we were caught as gamblers could sometimes be very uncomfortable. That's why so many people are trying to hide their gambling habits from the people closest to them. The embarrassment we will receive may be very oppressive.

I think we don't have to feel shy when we are playing gambling and we can play gambling online in our room so no other people will know what we did. and this is what I do when I want to play gambling, I open the site in my room and playing the games and when somebody coming to my room, I can close the tab of the game and pretend I don't do anything except browsing only
I think I can hide my activity in gambling games and so far, I can play gambling without anyone know.

That means you are afraid if your activity is known by others. Which means you will feel ashamed too if your secret is revealed. It applies to me as well. Gambling in my place has already got a bad name. So caught doing it will give a social effect which is very bad.

That is pretty much the case for anyone who gets shy from gambling. Normally, I do not see any reason for that to happen since if you are all present in a casino, you are obviously all doing the same activities, and even if you spot someone you know in the same casino, you just will only end up laughing it off, which would be more like, 'so you come here too?' and with that, you both have something in common and I see no reason why that should bring shyness.

If you don't gamble because you are shy then you probably have some psychological problems in your life that are not necessarily related to gambling.
Most of the casinos giving you the feeling that you are at home, everybody accepts you and care about you, which in fact all they care about is take your money.
if Shyness blocks you from gambling then go ahead, whatever blocks you from gambling is acceptable.

So being shy is already a psychological disorder? I don't think so. Probably something that had happened to make you feel embarrassed if you make a mistake could be one of the reasons but not a mental health problem. If you think that shyness is something that could be cured, it can be, in my opinion, especially if you practice yourself to talk to other people.

Have you ever felt that you didn't play just because you were shy? I have felt this in casinos, and I just felt the pressure, but there's no need to be because everyone just minds their own business in gambling. Probably some people even pushed you to start gambling. I just thought about this because when I tried gambling for the first time in casinos, I don't know if it's okay to sit in tables whether the game is blackjack, poker, anything in the casino just so that I just felt shy because I'm a newbie.

Have you felt this way? I don't know if playing online casinos would have that effect also. What do you think?

This does not only apply in gambling when you start to do something you never do before be it either hobbies or going to an interview, you will feel some awkwardness at first only after a while when you are more comfortable then awkwardness will go away especially when meeting strangers for first time be it either a date or online friend. 

Yeah its often felt by me, because I never went to place of gambling and among the friends I feel shy to bet someone. Most of my friends bet of cricket games. There is a huge gambling network on cricket in my country and in the whole world as well. I bet just one time in my whole life and luckily I won but I am not addicted of gambling and never gamble again.

At some point it could be consider as one. There are people who are afraid to communicate with others and it's a fact. Pyschologicaly speaking being shy could be a syntom of a person in a state of depression. I'm just speaking in general, since shyness and psychological were included. Which I think is really possible.

I think being shy is also a mental disease but it can't be cured by any medicine it can be only cured by changing our life style and other people's help also needed to cure the shyness of a person.But shyness in gambling maybe differ from that like we can feel shy we lost our money and can't get back like these.

There's really a difference between shyness in real life and shyness inside gambling activity, most of the time those who's shy-type are wouldn't bother to go inside gambling house they prefer to stay alone and wouldn't bother to do any social intercourse, unlike those who are just shy inside the gambling house as they don't want someone to see them playing or someone will discover their activity.

I am a shut in that is the reason why every time I go in casinos or wherever the people is there, I am Shy. But, I think this is the reason why I overcome my addiction to gambling.

Even though I am shy, most of the people there already knew me so I just sit wherever I was called by them but most of the time I am alone and even though there are some that knew me, they can't see me since they are busy gambling either losing or winning, I don't care really. I made a lot of mistakes inside a casino and that just made me more shy and the more I became shy, the lesser mt addiction is.

Don't gamble because of shy is not a psychological problem, it's actually a normal thing. Acknowledge the fact, gambling is considered a bad thing by most people so embarrassing to gamble is common to some gamblers. People in the casino will accept you because they are gamblers too, you will not be embarrassed. Unlike the people who do not gamble and they talk about you, you must be ashamed unless you can ignore it.

I felt shy to gamble in front of my parents when they are generalizing gambling as evil. They grew up as religious people and we all know that gambling isn't allowed in religion and that made me shy to gamble not because of the religion and gambling is prohibited. But I'm shy because during that time, I'm unemployed and I don't do anything but to follow my will and everything I like. My money is coming from them and that's really one of shameful part of my life.

Gambling in front of your parents ? Why would you even want to do that in the first place ?

Feeling shy is totally different entirely from feeling ashamed of yourself or feeling some level of guilt that you are doing things that are against the norm of your society or the principles of your parents.

I do not know how old you are, but I am sure there is a certain age someone must have gotten to, to be able to make decisions, and unless you are not yet there, and you cannot own up for your actions, then you should really not be gambling in the first place.

Yes there's a great effect when you started playing online casinos. So if you were planning to get involved with gambling I would rather say not because it will never give any benefits or you can't earned as high as we can earned who joined signature campaign. Don't pushed yourself in gambling because once you engaged in gambling and became addicted then its hard now for you to give this up.

When gambling you need to be a god damn lion dude, think about it, the odds are already stacked against you. The casino wants to see you fail, and so the game is designed so that you do. Don't make their job easier by being a pussy.

It's weird that there are people who are shy when they are playing gambling. There is no reason to be shy because the money that you are using when you are placing your bets is yours, so why being shy? unless the money that you are using when you are playin gambling is from illegal activities, like you stole it from someone, well if that is the case then you should be really shy on using it.

I agree to this, shyness can be cured for sure. Personally, I was also a very shy guy in my twenties. With time, I have evolved and completely a changed person now. Now, I can give speeches in open and I get appreciation for that. Shyness is usually a condition that arises due to lack of exposure.

Hahaha exactly what I wanted to say. We are so stupid really. We just don’t care about anything. We are becoming a source of profit for them. And in this profit, we made big losses to ourselves. We always lose and make their profit increased because as you have said, gambling is all about fixed on the side of house. They always win and make us losers and earn big profits from us as well.

In a gambling game, either you win or you lose and regardless of any mistake, which I think is not even possible, game’s outcome is decided. So I don’t find any point in this for feeling shy about gambling but still if you don’t feel yourself at ease in the gambling environment. It would be better for you to not even visit such places. Gambling is just a useless game and if possible, just avoid it.

I think there isn’t anything in gambling due to which one should become shy off. Saying this we should feel ashamed or shy after losing a game in gambling would be nothing else than a big blunder form one’s side because winning or losing is a part of game and this truly depends upon your efforts for winning in any game. If you will put all of your efforts in any game, there is no chance of your losing.

It is not a psychological problem, being shy on playing gambling is just because we don't wanted to make a bad image on our friends or even to our love ones, and also add that we just don't want to disappoint ourselves on whatever the result is. And don't you think that it is a advantage for a certain individual if he is shy on playing gambling, that way, he could prevent himself to lose his money on betting.

I have never tried to play in casinoes, but I think I would also feel shy because I have no idea how to play in casino. I only do casual gambling, and would like to play in a casino someday. But, I am afraid that I might get addicted to it.
