Can Gambling affect your relationship?

[Wiwo]

It wont be a problem if controlled by time or a fixed budget simple time allocation would be good like anything, any hobby could be declared as destructive if completely unrestrained.  Its upto the person to recognize they need to trim down or completely stop something if its become an overwhelming occupation.  Gambling or any large interest could be excluding other people outside of that interest if they arent involved to the point you can discuss it with them then its almost as if you are not with them, make that hours a day and certainly it could be viewed that way.  Dont be too obsessive, it wont be lucky for gambling imo.

I don't seems to have any problem with my wife as regards to my gambling activities,  as a matter of fact my gambling activities goes unnoticed to her since I gamble at a minimum level,  she doesn't know I gamble,  and the only gambling object she knows around me is stake and that is because she know I am promoting a casino call stake.

Aside from that,  she doesn't care to know how much I earn from gambling and what amount I gamble with since I placed everything in moderation and also place priority on my family.

A straight answer to this question would be a YES especially if it as gotten to the level where addiction has set in, gambling in moderation is the best way to make your gambling habit negligible or probably go unnoticed to your spouse or partner, if you spend more on gambling than you do on yourself and your partner or family as the case maybe it's definitely going to be a problem to your relationship.

It will also interest you to know that the relationship dose not only have to do with your spouse but that with your friends, employer and maybe relatives as the case maybe, so much addiction to the casino can take away so much time from you that you may not have time to relate properly with the above mentioned people especially when you're suffering a loosing streek, your productivity at work may be affected as your mind may not be in check.

As always advised gamble responsibly so as to prevent it getting to this point where you will have to suffer all these mentioned in the above paragraph, regulating how frequently you visit the casino will help you and also the amount you spend on gambling so you don't suffer losses enough to make you go broke and probably depression might set in as a result.

Gambling is one of the key problem relationships face. 

How exactly is gambling a key problem? Gambling can only affect a personal relationship when addiction falls in place. When we speck of addiction, some how to me it's when someone who consistently loose to the house keeps playing to the extend of stealing or loaning funds to gamble. This way he is becoming stress over something he isn't certain to have a possible result which might leave him somany bills and dept to pay. From this, I will say such person is becoming irresponsible and this might end up damaging his relationship not only with a spouse but also to his local area. On the other hand for someone who sometimes wins and losses, understand his limits and when to stop, I will call this a responsible gambler. And such person can maintain a health relationship.

I totally agree with you about that. I don't think that gambling can interfere with a relationship as long as the gambler has some discipline and gambles within their limits. Your spouse should never have a problem with it as long as you are providing everything and using only the spare money for your gambling activities, because you are already fulfilling all the requirements and completing your responsibilities, so she doesn't really have to be worried about it.

But, as you said, if someone is so into gambling that they spend most of their money and time on gambling and are always taking loans and debts are piling up, that is when the relationships start shattering and they might see them breaking very soon if they don't do something about their gambling addiction.

Even i would say that trust in between your wife or spouse is a must but im not really that confident on telling my wife that i do gamble because shes really that too serious on saving up money and spending is really that something that would be put up in something more useful and worth and gambling isnt included into that list. Therefore, whenever i do decide on dealing with some gambling game then i do hide myself in my own pc and make those rolls without getting caught. Its true that there would really be no problems as long you do really set out those rules and limits on which it would really be just that normal that there are really times that we are really that seeking for leisure and wont really be that bad to make some involvement or engagement with gambling because on the time that you would really be finding yourself getting addicted and you had already spending the money which arent supposed to be spend then it is really that indicating that you are already addicted to it.On the time that you wife notices out on those finance shortage then this is where questioning would happen. Then what you would gonna tell? This would surely bring a disaster once she would would be able to find out.

If you let it affect your relationship, yes.

The thing is that this type of discussion only comes up when you either took it out of the line and gambled against your partner's wishes, or you're falling into gambling addiction and it's starting to take a toll on your relationship. Either way you recognize that there's a problem, and you pretty much know what the solution is. I don't go against partners that are not happy with their husbands/wives gambling. For one, it's true that there are other ways for you to find catharsis and relaxation if the only thing you're looking for is entertainment and thrill anyway, another would be the fact that gambling shouldn't even warrant a serious discussion between you two. If it comes to that point you're pretty much fucked and you either have to choose between keeping up with your addiction, or staying within the relationship.

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.

It is very possible that when a person becomes too addicted to gambling, he often neglects his obligations and responsibilities. So that the gambling activities carried out can not only take up the money he has, but his time can also be taken up by gambling. Meanwhile, partners and their families need both of these things, because if we talk about providing, it's not just material, but it has to be physically and mentally. So it is natural that gambling addiction can cause the breakdown of a relationship. Because harmony in the relationship is no longer created.

It is true that things are very decisive when it comes to how and how they can affect a person's life when they are quite addicted to a game, so in this order of ideas things can be very affecting someone so that they can take it their way, there are people that when they are addicted they leave everything behind, family commitments, if they have a partner they simply don't have much time for their partners, they just want to be in the casino, but of course this is a bad thing, I say that everything in excess is bad, the activity This caisno is for people who want to have a different time, something like going to the stadium and watching a good soccer game, forget about the daily things, the life that doesn't surround us, work, stress, everything that is considered as a mandatory thing to do and that we don't like very much, the casino is the best space to do it, but it is a game for adults, because it has a lot of sense of responsibility in it, a person cannot be 'losing control because first it is only their fault. Of course, in a casino they don't force anyone to be there or make a very high bet, much less do they tell them that they have to leave their family commitments, with a partner or whatever work, just to be there, no, that's why It is a game that only allows adults to play, it seems very appropriate to me because an adult person is only to blame for their actions and must answer for that.

A person who is always looking for opportunities to invest and falls here and cannot control it, will obviously lose money, time, and many other things if he does not have the self-control to know how to manage his life, because the game is excellent, because one has fun and you can even earn money by having fun, but personally it is something that must be taken with great responsibility, first of all not to go overboard with money and spend more , and certainly not prefer the casino over your family, relationship, or whatever, Because the casino is always there, many times people or loved ones are not, so you have to take advantage of the most important thing.

[Nrcewker]

Not only gambling addiction, but any other sort of addiction also affects the relationship between the addicted person and his relationships. The person himself should be responsible on how he should not get affected or addicted to such things. In case of gambling addiction, if you gamble in limit by setting a goal or limit, then definitely you will get time to spend time with your loved ones. Gambling addiction do affect the relationships and the mental health of the person.

What I do know is that every addiction we have can have an impact on our relationship; in other words, it does not only pertain to gambling. And the presence of an effect is determined by the outcome because there are both positive and negative effects. Even if you have an addiction to gambling, keeping it hidden will have no negative consequences.

However, if you are good at keeping your secret, you don't want to jeopardize your relationships with your family, partner, friends, and so on. Because, of course, once they find out, the impact on what I mentioned will be negative.

It can only be valid if aside from keeping your secret you also maintain your finances, if it's not affecting you in terms of financial aspect
maybe you can keep that and not being notice.

But most of those addicted gamblers already exceed from the usual, and by that, they are also being noticed as most of the time the money
that supposedly for something important is being used just to continue their gambling activities.

I agree with that. that the casino never forces someone to play there and they just offer it. And in my opinion, gambling is not for adults, because there are still many people who join in gambling who are mature enough but still childish in their thinking. Where they always do silly and reckless things when gambling which ultimately leads to big losses and gambling addiction which causes a domino effect, namely relationship disharmony. So when we want to gamble, it's not just a matter of being old enough, but we also have to be mature in our thinking. Because when a person is mature enough in terms of thinking, he will always behave wisely and with a sense of responsibility when doing everything, including when gambling.

If gambling has damaged finances it will have quite serious consequences for the gambler's relationship with the people around him. The impact is not only for the gamblers themselves, but also those around them such as family, colleagues, and even people they don't know very well.
There are several types of gamblers who may be open about their gambling activities, but there are also those who are closed and tend to hide their gambling activities from other people.
those who are closed off from other people, which I think will have quite a bad impact if they experience financial problems. he can borrow from other people for various reasons without other people knowing that his money is being used for gambling. and it will be very bad when the addict cannot return the money.

Yes you are right that mate that there's an impact once one of a family member get addicted.  And first of that is keeping a secret to your love ones cause we all know that once you are becoming an addict then all you need is to keep it on your own cause once you've been caught then it's a big problem cause your family will getting mad at you. And if that will happen then you will realize that addiction. Is not a good habit.

[Mame89]

Of course, it is very influential if you cannot control yourself when gambling so that you become addicted. Actually, if you gamble just for entertainment, I don't think it will ever be a problem. However, in reality, many gambling players find it difficult to control themselves, which ultimately affects your relationships and even your life.

Because many gambling addicts, if we look at the news, they lose their cars because of their gambling problem and they lose their houses, they lose their savings, but what's worse than all that is they lose their friends and almost lose their marriages because of their gambling addiction. So be wise when gambling.

Hiding your bad habits (gambling addiction) is not a good thing to do. Because no matter how neatly you hide it, you will still eventually be found out, which is like the saying "no matter how neatly you hide a carcass, the smell will still be there."

By hiding bad things, this will only make things worse later, because a lie that is hidden is like a time bomb that will eventually explode. How long do we want to hide and run from existing problems (gambling addiction), so the best thing to do is to face these problems with courage and full responsibility and don't forget to always tell the truth to your partner, because we will never know What will the results be if we never talk about it and who knows, when you tell the truth, your partner may accept this and work together to find a solution.

And you have to remember bro.. That "Maintaining a relationship in the name of lies is more painful than a separation."

[DaNNy001]

Your gambling habit can definitely affect your relationship especially if you can't and don't know how to control your habits because when their is lack of control lose of finance is definitely bound to happen and in most cases addiction or that loss of fund can make you very aggressive to the point of even getting to the point of abusing your spouse because I have seen many cases of such scenario happening over here and most times the police even gets involved.

[Onyeeze]

I don't know for any other person gambling can affect your relationship when your participation in gambling is not well controlled, in gambling if you are gambling addictive and you are not given your attention to your relationship but you only concentrate in gambling , with such attention you are given gambling instead of your relationship it might lead to separation in relationship, but some people who is a gamblers will not know that gambling can caused crashed of relationship, what I believe and wanted us to understand in a relationship is that, when attention of both parties is being reduced it can cause bridge of relationship, because sometimes gambling will make you to forget about your family because you are only being willing to win gambling

Or simply say that "IF THERE"S SMOKE, THEN THERE'S FIRE" kind of line on which keeping up secrets would definitely be putting you in harm on the time that your wife or your family would be finding out that you

are involved with some gambling activities but reactions would really be something that would be depending because if you have just done your role well as a family man or being father without making them
suffer in terms of living then they wont really be making out such reaction but if you are really that making out some significant impact then expect pointing out fingers and blaming time would really be next in line.
This is why its never been that good to consider on keeping up secrets because you would really be finding yourself on possible trouble if you cant really be able to make those reasoning.
This is what i dont really like on keeping secrets specially into my wife because sooner or later you would really be caught no matter what, plus im not really that kind of person who do really love on hiding
things from my wife and its really just that risky to do so.

[jeha2015]

This directly affects your relationship with your partner if you are addicted to gambling. This is why many husbands and wives divorce because their partners are addicted to gambling.

A woman will definitely leave her partner even though he is kind, patient, understanding and has a number of other virtues, but if he cannot control himself when gambling then he will leave because the woman will think we are wasting his time. and money. A woman will think about how she can be responsible for her future when she cannot even control her lust for gambling even though it is clearly detrimental.

So, in my opinion, if you gamble, it's much better to hide your activities in front of your partner. Because it would be a huge loss if you quarreled with your partner just because of gambling. Gambling requires you to be able to manage your finances so that you can control yourself when gambling.

There are different types of people in gambling, each of whom has a different purpose. Some people use gambling only to have a good time while others try to gain financially. But if the gambler's gambling habit turns into an addiction, then its effects will be everywhere. Be it a family member friend or relative. Gambling will have no effect if you engage in gambling with an attitude that there is a high chance of losing. But most of the time gamblers have different opinions. An addicted gambler is always an untrustworthy person in the eyes of others.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

The thing is that this time around, gamblers see gambling differently, as not just entertainment but as a means of getting money abruptly. That's why you will even see some people gambling with money that isn't there, and imagine someone you trust using your hard-earned money to gamble against your will and In your absence. it's definitely going to cause an issue between you and the person, and you will end up losing trust in the person. In such a situation, the gambling habits of that person have just interfered with the relationship between you and that person. That's how it is with some people and their parents, some men with their wives, some fathers with their children, and other scenarios.
