Can Gambling affect your relationship?

[famososMuertos]

Eventually anything that involves not having an adequate schedule is going to end in a harmful effect, just in another thread of this type that is trending at the moment, I mentioned football both in person and for those who stay at home, being the matches of football mainly on weekends, staying at home doesn't help much if you want to spend the entire afternoon just watching football and not talking if you go out to the stadium.

 The point is as always, gambling is not the only source of ruining lives or relationships.

If you let yourself fall on gambling addiction, surely it will bring some negative effects on your spouse and most especially on your children. Your quality time that you reserved for your family will be steal by your gambling habit, leaving your family feeling not prioritized. Thus, if it will continue to happen, eventually you end up ruining the relationship with your children and break your marital promise with your spouse.

of course, I'm sure many of our partners would never agree to it, not only that. Usually gambling places are also decorated with beautiful women who make our partners jealous. it's a waste of our money, our partner wants us to buy useful things rather than to gamble. but some relationships are not that easy to end, usually strong relationships can always think about how to improve each other.

Gambling does not matter if the partner or family allows it and despite of being a gambler we are able to meet our responsibilities.  It only affect our relationship if we start failing to meet our financial responsibility to the family, the family has negative view about gambling and if we are too hooked on gambling putting all our attention and times on it disregarding the needs of our family.

Failing to meet the responsibilities due to gambling is one of the major reasons why there is a broken family, misunderstanding within the family members, and friendship being ruin because of failure to pay debts.  If we think about it, there are lots of factors being affected by irresponsible gambling.

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.

Honestly, yes, it really does matter.
If they are professional gamblers and they get a lot of income from gambling activities (whether as a bookie or a player), then this will make their relationship close, especially if they feel helped by this extraordinary income. Because money, yes money.

But unfortunately, there are more addicted gamblers who fail to do all of that, in fact there are many addicted gamblers whose relationships with their family, loved ones, neighbors, society and other communities actually end badly due to not being able to control themselves. This results in really bad addicted gambling, which encourages them to commit crimes. In my country, there are many criminal cases due to gambling addiction, domestic violence and ending in divorce. Moreover, slot gambling is currently booming, which is very easy for various parties to access online. This really depends on the individual because not all gamblers are like that. but there are many like that.

once there is an element of addiction especially when you make it a source of income,  then its going to affect your relationship because you will need to make ends meet and ensure you fulfill all responsibilities but once you cant do this as a result of not making enough money as expected. relationships are highly important and valuable which means you dont want anything that can spoil it in any form. this means you will gamble responsibly and also follow the money management rules.

If a gambling addict is most likely not getting money from a gambling site but rather a gambling site as a place to throw money away. A gambling addict will feel anxious if he has money and wants to always gamble. The more often he plays, the greater the possibility of losing. Addicts can spend their monthly salary in just one night. This condition will definitely interfere with relationships with anyone, debt is a habit of gambling addicts.

Honestly, I see a lot of problems that will occur if we become a gambling addict, damaged relationships, bankruptcy, stress, and maybe doing things that violate the law for money. I hope everyone can protect themselves from gambling addiction

Whether we are in a relationship or not as a gambler, we need to know what we are doing and able to plan ourselves so that our gambling addiction or activities if in case we don't have a gambling addiction to be able to differentiate the two from our relationship. We should allow our quest to make more money to affect our family or relationship.

We need to be able to work on our individual self so that we don't do something that is going to hurt us at the end after we have made a wrong decisions that might have crumbled our relationship with friends and family. We need to know our boundaries as a gambler so that we don't end up like other gamblers which there wives and families left them from there irresponsible attitude and gambling interest alone.

[irhact]

few relationships will be damaged by gambling. Yes, this is because one of the two really loves their partner. I'm sure the partner will think "maybe he will change, maybe he will stop soon" in the end he will accompany his partner, unless it is really detrimental to his partner and also him. it makes perfect sense for the relationship to end, because it would have been a bad relationship if it continued.

Lack of trust will be the reason for most relationship to end from a results of gambling because one of the spouse will think he can't trust the partner with money and will divorce him. If you're a gambler and you want to get into a relationship, don't hide your gambling activities and if you have an addiction, exposed it to your partner so the both of you can work towards putting an end to the addiction or you stop gambling so you don't misuse money kept for other things.

An individual that's addicted will also be spending more time at the casino gambling instead of spending time with his player and the player might misunderstand this behavior as she's not been wanted by her partner and they both begin to grow apart which can lead to the relationship ending.

Yes, certainly if one develops gambling addiction it will negatively affect your relationship towards your family, friends, and colleagues. Simply, if you have an addiction, you tend to manifest unhealthy behaviors that might harm yourself and others. Most gambling addicts isolate themselves and doesn't want any social interactions. In which can clearly affect your relationship to others, because interaction and communication are key factors in building healthy relationships with others. Addiction can also badly affect your relationship with your partner and children. Because one of the impacts of having an addiction is financial burden, there are cases where their couple cannot endure this kind of behavior which leads them to separation. This is sad to think but is happening in real life. So, I think it's much better that we know how to monitor ourselves, if we think that we are slowly developing an addiction, it's better to stop it immediately before everything gets too bad.

And we also need to understand the meaning of maturity, because many people understand this only in broad terms, which can be called an adult when they are 18+ or married, but the measure of maturity is not just age and status. . However, the measure of a person's maturity is more about maturity in thinking and acting.

Moreover, when we are married, where we cannot carry out gambling activities, this becomes our priority activity, because there are things that are more important than that.

Apart from that, before someone actually decides to gamble or enter into a relationship, in my opinion the measure is not only about maturity but it also includes whether or not we are able to do that.

Some people are still young but can think maturely because I have met them several times. They are still under 18, but their thoughts and actions are mature, so people mistakenly think they are over 18. So if they can act maturely and treat everything well, they will not exceed their limits, especially if it is gambling. However, some people are over 40 but still think like children and want everything to be obeyed. If they were gambling, I can't imagine what would happen to them because they would go berserk if they lost.

And it will affect their relationships with the people around them because they use their emotions without thinking first. We have to be aware of this so that we are not like them and can think about what is good for us. And that is also to avoid any bad influences on our relationships with other people.

Yes, Gambling addiction has strained a lot of relationships through financial instabilities emotional turmoil, social isolation, and family problems.

Any activity that you do that interferes with your relationship with your family or those closest to you is included in the category of addiction, so in fact it is not only gambling addiction that can damage relationships but also other addictions.
If you can still control yourself well then it will not be possible for gambling to damage your relationship, because everything is done with good control, when to play, how long to spend playing, including the money spent on gambling. However, if you talk about self-control, it's just a theory, but it can be done even though it's difficult.

Relationships fail when there is an abuse on a certain course of action. Regardless if it’s gambling or not, as long as you lost your self-control and discipline towards it, your relationship will always be put at risk. Most especially when it comes to gambling addiction, wherein the husband crosses his limits in gambling to the extent of spending even their life savings or selling their properties, then it’s expected that the spouse will develop hatred towards his husband and leave him because of that. When that happens, we can conclude that gambling addiction is certainly a big threat when it comes to marital relationships.

Most of the time, when a certain limits already being exceeded understanding is being breakout as well, I think if you still have that
self-control the chance still good.

But once you are out of control, things change up and the more you push yourself into this kind of situation, the more it will get worse, I guess
relationship is being tested as gambler needs to work out if how they value their partners.

If respect and value still have that weight, gambling problem can be solved or can be avoided, just for my personal take though.

It's true, too much of anything can make things bad.
Emotions that make the relationship with your partner strained can also occur.
but some couples want to understand and understand their partner's condition, they may remind them to reduce things slowly, rather than scolding them or fighting with their partner, and I think this is quite effective to do.

If I look at my life and my friends' lives, I say yes, some of us who gamble might lie to our partners to avoid an argument or cover it up.
so I think it's true that gambling can disrupt relationships.
but if some couples are willing to discuss it and find a way out of this addiction maybe they will be fine.
The key to a relationship is communication.

Yes, there are, but we very rarely see them and they are not the ones who are great because they are able to act and think maturely even though they are still relatively young. And I say once again they are not the great ones.! However, it is the parents who are great because they are able to provide and develop their children so that they can behave and tthink like that and that is where the role of parents is very necessary to ensure that their children's growth and development goes well.

However, some people are over 40 but still think like children and want everything to be obeyed. If they were gambling, I can't imagine what would happen to them because they would go berserk if they lost.

People who are mature enough, especially those who have dependents, namely family, should be able to think more clearly when gambling because if we talk about experience, of course they are already more experienced in the world of gambling because gambling is not something new but has been around for some time. a hundred years ago

And it will affect their relationships with the people around them because they use their emotions without thinking first. We have to be aware of this so that we are not like them and can think about what is good for us. And that is also to avoid any bad influences on our relationships with other people.

Of course, every time we gamble, we have to involve our emotions in it because if not, the gambling game we play will feel empty. However, despite this, it is true that we have to control these emotions to prevent big losses in gambling.

Gambling should never be that big a part of your life that it starts to over spill into things like your relationship with other people. If someone else perceives you have a problem, then it's possible you've taken things too far and may be facing a state of denial. At that point, even if you don't believe it to be true, then maybe it is fair to cut out gambling for a month and see how it mentally affects you. If you're able to cut it off and not give it a second thought during that time, then you should be ok. If you find yourself drawn back into it immediately, they probably have a point. You should then start to evaluate if you want to continue on the route of gambling or whether your relationship is more valuable, because eventually they will get fed up and leave.

And what the OP said in his thread is, gambling affects our relationships as gamblers. he explains the impacts and complaints of the negative side of gambling, which can damage a relationship with a partner. whether it causes financial tension, loss of joint savings, accumulation of debt and so on. I think there are quite a few people who experience gambling problems which have an impact on their relationship as a couple. In fact, quite a few end in separation.
Honestly, I will not close my eyes to the impacts caused by irresponsible gambling. that in fact, such phenomena often occur in the wider community.

Refers to what you say, if as a couple you love each other. Maybe, there is an urge that makes the gambler change. The point is, so as not to become dependent on excessive activity which ultimately leads to addiction. I won't deny some of the points you said, there are many people who change because of their partner. and that actually happens a lot.  and therefore also, someone who loves gambling activities like me. really need knowledge, knowledge in everything. whether it's understanding, self-control, discipline and responsibility.

Indeed, they are not great, but if we compare them with their peers, they are already great because they have more ideas than other friends. And parents indeed teach their children ways to develop their children's understanding and thinking skills. They can teach what their children need and ensure their children's growth and development are good.

If they gamble without responsibility, they will not be able to think about their family because all they want is to chase wins. They should not get involved in gambling because it will not give them daily wins. Those who can think more clearly will try to leave gambling for the sake of their family because it could impact their relationship with their family.

It's okay to gamble with emotions involved, but we have to really be able to control those emotions. Most gamblers will lose control of their emotions when they gamble, which will be indicated by whatever results they get. Whether they win or lose, their emotions will increase, and if they lose control, they will become even more eager to win. But there was only more loss.

There are several things that excessive gambling could result in and this could happen when you have taken gambling to the level of addiction, where you have more of your time and attention put into things about gambling than the attention you pay to your relationship and even to the notice of your partner. This does not only happen with gambling but also with traders who spend more of their time analyzing the chart and trading the market and at the end of the day without spending quality time with loved ones, mostly the day- traders.

Any addiction would affect relationship.
All sorts of addiction would consume your time, attention and money so of course it would greatly affect your relationship.
Even if those who are addicted would explain it there are some who wouldn't even understand it.

That is a nice experiment to run to see how dependent a person has become on gambling, however this is rarely done by those that needed it the most, and this is because they are in denial they have a problem and they always think of themselves as being in control of the situation and being able to quit whenever they want, but they never really put their supposed ability to quit whenever they want to test, as deep down they know they are lying and they do not want to accept the truth.
