Personally, I have never had any pressure over me from other people, because I always played by myself or with my family, so they definitely wouldn't encourage me into spending more yet in gambling. Quite the opposite, they always warned me I shouldn't get too involved on this activity, due to the risks of addiction and financial losses. And even if I had friends pressuring me to gamble, I wouldn't feel forced by them, as their opinion really doesn't matter at all on this matter. The most important thing is that you have your personality solidified, so you won't feel the necessity of pleasing others to belong a group or have their approval.
I always once never s fan of gambling but it got to a time when I needed to make my own money and the only option I had was to gamble that seems like a easy way for us to make extra cash from using our feed money and saving to try our luck. This was continual until I found out that gambling was more about luck that just playing games and betting in them. I don't have any regrets though because it was a trending option then seeing school students in game houses and betting shop to bet in order to earn more profits then using part of it to bet again.

Peer pressure has a role to play where morals or self discipline is lacking in substantial amount. I would like to think that if one likes to be in the midst of a lot of persons, they might sooner than necessary bend to the tune or habits of the group or join to have a group habit.
For me though, it simply is for fact that a gambler became a gambler out of choice or was booed into it. Perhaps the thought had been lingering, unlike any other indulgence for pleasure, one or two gambling games would have been okay, but it wasn't.

Once curiosity kicks in then it would really be that possible for someone would really be trying out to engage on something not only limited to gambling but also in other things as well. There would really be somethings in life on which it would really be that a main catalyst or trigger on which it would really be caught up our attention and would really be able to tend to engage because of the curiosity and this is where you would be finding whether a particular thing would really be that interesting or not. Be always sure that you do know to assess whether it would be harmful or not on longer runs specially in dealing with gambling. We know that it is really that spending money or funds which it isnt really that ideal that you would really be that tolerating that kind of emotion because this would be the primary reason on why you would really be making yourself get lost of track and the worst you would really be that putting yourself into huge trouble specially in talking about finances or money.This is why it would be ideal on avoiding it while its still early.

Depends on the person entirely. I've known a lot of people who have been groomed into gambling but never dared touch it. For them, it's just another waste of their money, and they'd rather take up an expensive hobby than to gamble their money. I understand their reasoning into not gambling, and no matter how much that person's group coerce him into gambling, they'd rather not do it because it doesn't really benefit them at all.

I agree with what @dothebeats said because it depends on each person. If they realize gambling is a waste, they will not come close to gambling and will even stay away from it. They also don't mind the ridicule of others because they realize that if they gamble, they are using their money, and if they lose, it means they will lose their money. And they will also find it difficult to recover the money lost in gambling. In addition, they also have another more serious problem, namely gambling addiction, and they may find it difficult to cure it if they get addicted to gambling.

You sounds like gambling is a complete waste and you will not get anything, it's not good to say like that. I'd say they're just can't feel fun and entertained in gambling, since they're not interested in gambling, then it's their choice to not gamble and we can't force them to gamble. We need to accept every people opinion, what we can do is choose to interact with them or not in the future.

It depends on the person and its capacity to ignore peer pressure. But on my case, I can agree on this and I can tell that peer pressure is one of the factors why I engage in gambling. Who wouldn't be tempted if you're seeing your peers earn tons of money by pure luck, right? Of course, our automatic response would be "I should try it" or "If he can make that much money, so can I". This might sound funny but sometimes we tend to think that we are luckier than others and that's why we engage in gambling.

Hmm. I think "peer pressure" is more of a close people kind of thing and not the influencers that appear to ask for something towards you that you are "obliged" to gamble or something.
It's better to know why you are doing it and not because you are "forced" to do it.
My experience with this is not a lot. I'm surrounded by people who are curious about gambling but wouldn't really gamble or influence you to gamble all the time. It's best to know that you are doing it because you really want to and are not forced to.

I would like to think that if one likes to be in the midst of a lot of persons, they might sooner than necessary bend to the tune or habits of the group or join to have a group habit. Peer pressure is a catalyst in which it's actions are mostly strongly unadvisable because they are not what we would have targeted to behold at last, peer pressure is not what we should consider being that important to us because not all of us can admit the influence of having friends at the first instance, those that have been with friends in the past later regret some of their decisions and come out of the whole relationship because of the he heating pressure. For me though, it simply is for fact that a gambler became a gambler out of choice or was booed into it. Perhaps the thought had been lingering, unlike any other indulgence for pleasure, one or two gambling games would have been okay, but it wasn't.
We have to be intentional with our gambling decisions, having friends influencing what we do will give us more harm than the good thereof, friends must not push us into doing what we never intended doing except we see it being profitable to ourselves.

That's good, at least they just want to know about gambling, don't want to try gambling. because it will be very fatal when gambling because we are forced to follow the trend of peer association, of course we don't want to hear ridicule just because we don't follow their flow to gamble, that is a common fact where when we try not to follow our peers they will make fun of us because we don't want to join to play together and gamble with them. Gambling must come with oneself and not forced, at least do research on what makes gambling can make money and also make people quickly become poor, because if gambling only goes with the flow of peers, it is clear they will not understand the losses we experience, even I think they will not care about it.

Indeed online gambling is currently quite popular among the public, including minors/students to adults, basically as far as I know someone who wants to gamble for real can be said to be formed from a determination of intention, it is a component that arises in each individual subjectively, intention is the main reason someone wants to gamble for real. But on the other hand, environmental and social situations, one cannot escape the desire to gamble, especially peers, this can also affect the basis for someone to fall into the world of online gambling.

Most of what I encountered was because they were interested in the victory of peers in their environment which made him inspired to take part in gambling, maybe it was also included me, I used to be skeptical with gambling but because it was increasingly more peers playing gambling and getting victory made me even more want to try it, and in the end I tried to gamble and find defeat, from there I was not very interested in gambling because I got a defeat, but one day I was given a tip by my friend to do gambling, and get a big victory, from there the sense of wanting to gamble I grew up and maybe to this day I did gambling, even though my peers had stopped gambling. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

From all the accounts of different members expressing how they got involved in gambling peer group influence occupies a larger part of about 85% if not more. If that be the case, it then mean that most of the decisions we had taken in other areas of life while growing up as teenagers were greatly impacted by our peer groups(those in our clique of friendship). My gambling life wasn't in any way influenced by those around me because my friends I keep weren't gamblers at then but, in retrospect I still remember that there were other facets of life they did influenced my decisions especially as it concerns my career field today.

That's good, at least they just want to know about gambling, don't want to try gambling. because it will be very fatal when gambling because we are forced to follow the trend of peer association, of course we don't want to hear ridicule just because we don't follow their flow to gamble, that is a common fact where when we try not to follow our peers they will make fun of us because we don't want to join to play together and gamble with them. Gambling must come with oneself and not forced, at least do research on what makes gambling can make money and also make people quickly become poor, because if gambling only goes with the flow of peers, it is clear they will not understand the losses we experience, even I think they will not care about it. I find it amusing that occasionally the cheese at the end of the maze isn't even cheese at all, but like, oh, a block of rubber posing as cheese. That is what peer pressure is all about. I'm reminded of children who have already had too much ice cream when they push for another scoop when they're pushing for gambling by these peers Regarding the "going with the flow" part, you're dead on. Come on, it's the twenty-first century, don't follow the crowd. Insane peer pressure! Nobody knows where the line ends as they all simply march in a straight line. I've heard that pursuing knowledge and understanding oneself, rather than obediently obeying others, is encouraged in the great wisdom of Buddhism. Therefore, maybe, just maybe, if these people spent some time learning about Buddhism, they might understand the value of self-awareness and give up following the crowd

None of these were actually the reason why I first started gambling. If I remember correctly, my first experience with gambling was when I was fond of a PTC (pay-to-click) site named PaidVerts, and that website had a lot of gambling games where you could play with your points either to win more or lose what you have. I used to play those games, mostly the coin flip game which was basically a game where you choose whether it will be heads or tails and you would win 99% of your bet for the right prediction.
There were a lot of different games that I used to play there, and that is where I first started gambling and then I started using gambling platforms such as Stake when it was launched initially. I also started using Martingale strategy on that PTC website first and I used to lose everything a lot of times, lol.

Teased many times because I've passed on betting on a game for esports. While most of my friends got their own bets and won, I didn't bother but they did teased me and boasted me their profits. I don't really mind at all but it's too annoying when it doesn't look like it's gonna stop soon.
That's how it goes with peers, sometimes it's total fun and sometimes you just don't like it when they go against your boundaries looking that you're comfortable for them when don't. Just know the boundaries and you're still you and gambling with or without them.
You know what you're up to and what do you like when you gamble.

Hmm. I think "peer pressure" is more of a close people kind of thing and not the influencers that appear to ask for something towards you that you are "obliged" to gamble or something.
It's better to know why you are doing it and not because you are "forced" to do it.
My experience with this is not a lot. I'm surrounded by people who are curious about gambling but wouldn't really gamble or influence you to gamble all the time. It's best to know that you are doing it because you really want to and are not forced to.
That's the type of surroundings you should have. I do not have that many people I know closely that gambles a lot or even if they do, they do not tell me about it. There used to be some, but I grew apart of course. So right now, I am filled with people who want me to make the good thing, the right thing and just focus on that instead. I get that it is not going to be easy, and I get that there seems to be something that will bother everyone, but that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with a bad situation, we just need to reach to a point where we need to focus on something that is healthy for us and we need people around us to help us with that instead. That would be the way to grow as a person and be or do better.

Let's talk about the experiences y'all had prior your adoption time ( the time you realized you're supposed to begin gambling and, if possible - take good advantage of the casino itself) ... alright we all know that alot of things could sound so convincing atimes - and that could possibly make anyone go for a highlife or tryout new things beyond Thier capacity - was there a time you read any article about some multi million wins and the person behind was someone of your age group?? Yes, although I don't update myself on lottery result since I am not buying lottery tickets. I often watch on tv some featured article about a person in a certain age winning a lottery jackpot. Although I think it was amazing, but I was not tempted to follow their foot step. "*Or a time you came across an ad on your cellphone where a person of your age was tryna enable you get on a site, with so many proves then that kinda like inspired you?? No, I am one of those skeptical and somehow thinks that the kind of advertisement is made and scripted so that they can lure people in playing on their platform. "*Or a time you got excitingly/awkwardly teased by a close friend for not wagering on the same game as they did, then it cuts?? My circle of friends does not encourage anyone to gamble although some of them are playing in a casino, they don't intervene on the decision of others. There is a self respect among the friends that forbid them in teasing others into doing things they don't comfortable with. "*Or a time you were offered a big tip to bet with(which clearly isn't your own funds?)? There is no time as this.
I agree with the title that most first time gambler are being pressured by their peers and this pressure become a catalyst for these people in starting their gambling journey. Since the human has a need to belong, if a person encountered a circle of friends that is into gambling, there is a huge possibility that this person will eventually join the pack in gambling.

As I often say, that the circle of friends will greatly affect your social life. gambling, was not born out of nowhere since the first time it existed in history. as well as in the current era, in most cases association or friendship influences your patterns and habits. if there is encouragement from peers, whatever it is, it is very common. but you can also just watch a friend do something, then you are interested in doing it too, including in the case of gambling.
There are also other factors, in fact we have reviewed them in several threads. Gene and DNA factors can also influence someone to like something even without any encouragement or pressure from peers. For example, you only see casino advertisements on your smart device, suddenly you have an interest in gambling. it could also be when you are on vacation visiting another city, then you see that there is a land casino, you are interested in visiting it and then getting involved in the game. the point is, there are various factors that can make you interested in gambling even without pressure and encouragement from friends. remember, that something that is fun will always tempt us to try it.

yes, probably friends circle could influence some habits like gambling habits (likewise "lets see an even and bet together, play for xmas card games, or play poker with few friends and many many more examples). but in the same time, I am not sure this approach have a direct relation with addiction or just driving people to gamble alone/compulsive.
