Can Gambling affect your relationship?

[madnessteat]

It is so sad that average people keep exeggarating gambling as life ending adventure. Obviously I did sports betting since I was 18 and my mum always hated it. She would always tell me to stop it. Most of traditional girls here completely against men that gamble. Its so sad because gambling is very enjoyable part of life. And not all people waste their life through it. I would tell my girlfriend that I use only portion of my income so she doesn't need to worry.

My wife knows I gamble. She knew about it before I got married, because I am a supporter of trusting relationships in the family and disclosed all my hobbies. But I will tell you honestly that even if I spend on gambling a little money from the family budget she does not like it. I found a great way out of this situation - subscription campaign on this forum allows me to communicate on the forum and play gambling without spending money from the family budget. My wife is not annoyed and I am happy that I can afford to play slots or poker.

What kind of relationship are you referring to? Is it our husband's, if there is one? With relatives or friends?Actually, all of that will affect what I mentioned. But gambling also has a good effect when you win a large amount of money from it. And when that happens, of course, your own family and friends will be happy for you.

But when you often lose gambling and your behavior changes because you have an addiction to it, your relationships with your family, relatives, and friends will definitely be affected.

Imho the only way gambling can affect relationship are two cases - when you gamble and lose your second half money, or when you give more attention to gambling than to your second half. Everything else is can be negotiated. Relationship is a work, responsibility, sacrifice and compromises of two. Have an addiction - share it with her/him and find a joint solution. If gambling is fun, share it with her/him. But, gamble only with own money and value her/him over gambling. Or just talk with each other ffs, this solves most of couple problems.

Yes, Gambling addiction has strained a lot of relationships through financial instabilities emotional turmoil, social isolation, and family problems. Gambling which was meant to be a popular kind of entertainment for many and was designed to provide a temporary escape from everyday life and also help one to be more observant mentally task your brain and it is also good for your mental brain. When it becomes an addiction it causes financial strain the strain can manifest in various ways including the loss of shared savings, debt accumulation, and financial secrecy which may lead to strained communication between partners. This communication breakdown can prevent couples, friends, and associates from working together.

Of course it can affect your relationship to anyone since  you became in denial of everything as well it can affect your lifestyle and financial capacity. This is one of the root cause on why there are broken family especially if the affected adult mishandled their fortune. Hopefully we will not go in this situation so new gamblers should see the bad effect of expecting to much on gambling and make it as a full time habit since this could ruin their life.

Agree on that statement mishandling the situation will affect not only you as individual but also those people around you,
with the way you will judge everything it will be more in favor of your gambling activities.

It's the relationship with either your family or your close friends that will be ruined since your focus is more on your gambling participations.

It's tough as you already being dominated by gambling and nothing else that you wanted to do aside from pleasing your gambling activities.

The answer to this question actually varies depending on the person's purpose and addiction because gambling is just entertainment for some people and unfortunately addiction for some people.

First of all, I would like to start by answering yes to the question asked. If an individual addicted to gambling reaches a level where he/she loses all his/her money to gamble and negatively affects his relationship with the people around him due to gambling. His family, valentine and friends relationships will be negatively affected due to this addiction. In other words, someone who is addicted to gambling will have relationship problems with the people around them due to this addiction.

The answer to the question can be given as no for the following reason. If gambling serves only an entertainment purpose for an individual and if this person gambles only for entertainment purposes without reaching the level of addiction, his/her relationships with the people around him/her will not be negatively affected in any way due to gambling.

If there is only one answer to this question, the person should ask himself/herself the question "Am I addicted to gambling?" and learn the answer based on the answer he/she can give to this question. So, the answer to the question completely varies from individual to individual.

Gambling can have both positive and negative effects on individuals. However, if you are an irresponsible gambler, it can significantly impact your life in a negative way, particularly by endangering your financial stability and potentially leading to bankruptcy. This is why gambling operators always emphasize the importance of gambling responsibly, recognizing the addictive nature of gambling. Those who lack discipline are at a high risk of developing gambling addictions.

Conversely, if you are consistently winning in gambling, life can become financially easier, as the process of making money through gambling can be quite instantaneous.

Your wife knew a lot about you before and after the marriage, so your relationship is intact even though you are a gambler in the present day. But in my case the opposite happened to you because before marriage I could participate in gambling freely but now after marriage my wife forbids me to participate in gambling all the time. My wife is pious and religious ,my wife knows gambling as an abominable act so my wife always asks me to refrain from gambling. But most of the time I refrain myself from gambling because I value relationships because gambling can never be bigger than valuable relationships.

Gambling, extremely gambling that is compulsive has adverse consequences on the gambler and everything in and around him. The gambler doesn't immediately notices the damage that their compulsive gambling is causing until it is almost too late to be able to salvage the situation. Do not gamble with what you cannot afford to lose. Set aside at least 1%, at most 2% of your monthly income for gambling each month. That way, you would be able to meet your other financial responsibilities without failing and keep your relationship too. When these and other things are not adhered to it leaves a crack in the relationship and could destroy it.

What the OP mentions here really affects all relationships.  Like boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands, wives, friends and family, parents, brothers and sisters can all become addicted to gambling. Gambling is a game that can cause rifts in all relationships.

Yes you are definitely right as long as a man can make money from gambling everyone will be fine. And whenever someone keeps losing from the gambling platform, it becomes bad for everyone. So there is money as long as there are people. Again there is money as long as you have respect. So earn money in honest way and live happily and peacefully with family.

Without realizing it, gambling can affect good relationships into bad ones. The reason is due to jealousy and emotions that arise when playing with friends on many occasions. The first thing that came to mind was that he was really happy that he could get a lot of money because he always won, whereas I had spent a lot of money but never felt a win. This is called envy.
Meanwhile, in the case of emotions, we ask for something that is not given. It doesn't have to be when you are in a gambling situation. As a result of something that is not given, that is the cause of a relationship starting to break down and become tension by not saying hello to each other.

[makishart]

 That will happen once you spent whole of your money on gambling only without even cared if you do need to fulfill another need for yourself. Let's say that if you were lying to your girlfriend or your family about used, all of your money for gambling but you lost. it would be destroying yourself.
Im sure your close people will be keep distance from you. The different thing when you were only spending small amounts of money for gambling purpose and you use it as entertaining purpose only. I think that your close person will have no problem with it.
One of the most significant outcomes of extreme gambling addiction is that the individual may end up losing not only their close relationships, but also their standing within their community.

Obviously we’ve all heard stories of someone spending their family’s life savings on gambling over and over again until their family leaves them. I’ve even seen this first hand with one of my personal friends growing up. It’s a weird problem to have a family member constantly losing their money gambling, but it’s a common one. Some people just shouldn’t gamble.

That is why gambling should not be for everyone. Although we all have freedom to gamble and be entertained, but some gamblers have hard time controlling their emotions and urges to gamble and eventually found theirselves into gambling addiction. And when it happens, they all lost control of their hard-earned money and spend everything until they end up being homeless. This is the reason why gambling becomes the top reason why families become broken because instead of budgeting and saving their money, gambling steal that chance and end up in a very regretting situation.

[Sanugarid]

I think yes gambling really affects the relationship. I remember when I was in high school, my mom and dad used to fight because of gambling. that my mom was also really addicted to gambling at that time and then my dad found out that we were not given money for school so dad got angry with mom but they stopped fighting because mom stopped gambling

Gambling has a really big impact on a relationship, especially if you hide it from your partner. You can gamble as long as you control yourself and have self-discipline. In gambling, if you make a wrong bet, it can happen again, in a relationship, if you make a wrong decision, it can affect or destroy the relationship.

A gambler shouldn't be trusted with any public funds or hands over public offices as he may compromised the office. Usually a gambler is someone who is mentally unstable and unhealthy also unlikely to think wisely rather than profits making in every single bets that they places which is another problems we are all facing today. Whom ever that can control their gambling exercise can actually be reasonable although do not quotes me wrongly as their are responsible and educated gamblers who gambles either ones in a blue moon.

I don't know if some would disagree but I actually agree with you, gambler when they have the money on their hands, they have the mindset of using it in gambling which is really unhealthy, all of the money on them, there isn't a time that they would not to bet it in gambling. They really focused on winning and doesn't care if they lose everything on their hands like properties, relationships, family, unhealthy lifestyle and etc. Even if they won they would just come back for more which still results to losses. Gambler who managed and control themselves is really reasonable as they are not willingly to sacrifice everything they have just to bet it at gambling.

The problems of Man is Greed do you know that is Greed that triggers addiction?
Yes okay look lemme explain if you go gamble and it happens that you lose what is next for you to do, is it not to go home and focused other aspect of your life or go back to work place or your duty to start working?
Yes look were greed comes, if you gamble with at least $10 or $20 and it happens you lost the best the greedy ones will say lemme try to see if i could recover my $20 or $10 lost by so doing you gradually cultivate Greed into your minds and do you know the words "Cultivation"? To me this means to grow something or acquiring something and when that which you cultivated grows in your it would be very difficult to weed it out or cut it off. That is why today we finds many people calling themselves gamble addicts, to me is an intentional acts.

Gambling addiction is one of the grounds for divorce if you married someone who intentionally hid his addiction and then you discovered that he is a compulsive gambler and he's been rehabilitated and still coming back to gamble you can file a divorce for betrayal of trust.
Gambling addiction is one of the major causes of family disputes and contributes to a loss of the family's wealth, so if you're thinking of raising a family be honest with your future partner and ask her to help you cure your addiction, if she turns away at least you found out her feeling is not really true to you.

Gambling should always be for entertainment purposes, if it becomes an addiction while using it for entertainment then it will definitely have harmful side be it relationship or anything else. I myself have many relatives and circle of friends who were more addicted to it, some people are now in the situation of being on the street. And if you explore a little on the internet, you will see that many people are committing su*icide after being mentally devastated by not being able to pay the gambling debt.
And if we talk about  gambling effect on relationship,  there is many incidents that friend  ki*lls his friend  for not getting the gambling money. Every thing has bad effects of addiction same in this case. So I think it should be taken only for entertainment purpose not in addiction. Here Self control is the  main fact.

Yes, gambling can affect relationships. It can put a strain and permanent damage to your relationship with your loved ones whether it is your mother, father, siblings, spouse, friends, and other relatives. As a matter of fact, gambling is one of the leading causes why people drift apart from each other. This is mostly because of bad gambling habits that lead to influencing your connection with others negatively such as when you become addicted, you tend to spend so much time gambling that you might forget the time already. You can missed out special occasions such as family events, anniversary, birthdays, and the likes. And the moment you forget those, some people might felt betrayed and disappointed because you don't pay attention and you don't took note of those matters that weighs heavy for them.

Additionally, if you overspend in gambling, you can find yourself in trouble for having no savings or even being buried with debts that could lead to arguments from your immediate family members and especially with your spouse or partner in life. It can affect so many relationships if you will not do it right. It could ruin what you treasure and cherish the most if you won't gamble responsibly.

Can Gambling affect your relationship?

I have seen many cases of my closest friends where their relationships with their families had a bad and messy impact, the biggest influence being on their wives, For this reason, the experience that my friend once had made me think a thousand times when gambling.

In my opinion, the influence of gambling is quite big on the family, if we don't do it carefully, that's why I really oppose gambling at home, the influence that gambling has on the social side is quite dangerous, Even though there is a lot of online gambling nowadays, we still have to be able to control ourselves from our environment and family so that it doesn't have a bad influence on our own family.

Gambling is fine, as long as you are smart about maintaining your playground and have full control over your environment and family, so that it doesn't have a bad influence in the future.

I actually don't have a problem if my partner gambles, but as long as he can control it and can control himself. But what I'm afraid of here is that many of my friends also gamble but can't control it so they spend a lot of money just to gamble. and what I don't like the most is when I see my partner gambling secretly without my knowledge because if he's like that I automatically can't control his spending.
Gambling is indeed entertainment, but my aim here is not to prohibit it, I just want to control it so that it doesn't exceed the limits.
