Can Gambling affect your relationship?

[Negotiation]

Gambling has to remain as a secondary hobby activity in someone's schedules. It can't be the priority in anyways. The priority has to be the person's mental and physical health, integrity plus welfare in first place, then in second place the marriage and its commitments, only after hobbies, where gambling is included, take place. When the individual puts gambling above everything, of course there will be negative consequences for him/her, especially the total discontent of his/her partner and children.

First of all, everything should be open, no secrets, in this case, if someone becomes very interested in gambling, the spouse will be able to point out this problem in time. If this hobby is kept secret from your partner, then it can ultimately bring much more problems. Everything secret becomes clear, which means that it can affect trust in the family and can lead to big problems, if there is no one who could stop it in advance.

Gambling risks are so high that concealing information from one's family becomes a more serious problem. The affected person then tries to hide the gambling behavior instead of controlling the urge to gamble. They use all kinds of tricks to hide the matter. It is not right to hide anything from one's wife because once gambling becomes an addiction the person loses control then not only the relationship but also the society creates a negative attitude.

It is true that someone should also be informed about gambling. Because when a gambler becomes addicted, he cannot redeem himself. If his wife or a friend knows about his gambling addiction, he can help him. Many times a gambler wants to escape from his addiction but no one gives him proper advice because he does not tell anyone. Gambling gives people temporary pleasure, addiction does the opposite. It is hard to celebrate the joy of an addicted gambler. Due to his addiction, there will be a big mistrust in the society or family which will have a big negative impact on his real life. I think the only appropriate solution is to be free from addiction.

The main key may be mutual openness, because when our partner finds out about our gambling habits, there are two possibilities: firstly, he will accept it well, and secondly, someone may object to the gambling habit, because it is clear that gambling can harm them, and when everyone already knows There must be someone who gives in to the gambling habit, either the partner who gives in so they can accept the habit that has been carried out, or we who give in to reduce or even abandon the habit of gambling, because if at times like this we still prioritize each other's egos then the winner is separation.

In my opinion, gambling can indeed affect family relationships or relationships with a partner, especially if someone is addicted to gambling, they tend to experience changes that make them a more stubborn person, and tend not to want to give in. so if they already have a partner and they are addicted to gambling, I think gambling could affect their relationship, triggering a separation.

I'm inclined to think that if your partner finds out about your gambling addiction, it will always have a negative impact on your attitude. Luckily, I didn’t have to go through this, but my friend found out that her husband had a serious gambling addiction, and as a result, it had a very serious impact on their family budget, because he lost a very impressive amount.

In establishing a relationship, whether it is between a husband and wife or someone and their partner, it must be done openly. If one of them often gambles, they should honestly tell their partner so that there are no misunderstandings between them because this often happens to couples who don't want to say openly that they gamble. If they don't say it, one day, it could cause a commotion that could affect their relationship. If that happens, maybe they will separate just because of a misunderstanding or one person is always violent because he often gambles, loses, and takes it out on his partner. This is beyond the limit and people who gamble must immediately realize this and end their gambling activities by looking for other, safer activities. He cannot sacrifice his relationship with his partner, especially if they have lived together for a long time, because their relationship is more important than just gambling.

I say that everything should be open, not just like that, but because my husband (erlier my boyfriend) was active in gambling. I found out about this by chance, but he didn’t hide it and didn’t talk about it.

I just wondered what he was doing and he simply gave me access to all his accounts. I didn’t ask for this, but I was allowed, then of course I wanted to see the history of his account.

I will say this, I was lucky that my man is good at gambling, he systematically withdraws profits, and this was the only time I looked at the history of his bets, after that I never looked at his accounts.

[the rise]

actually yes. you could say I'm not a gambling addict. If I gamble I always do it in my free time like holidays and also when I have extra money for entertainment. but if my partner knows it will definitely damage my relationship, I can only gamble behind his back. I understand what it means so that I don't become an addict, but for me this is entertainment that as long as I can control it, I won't be addicted here.

Maybe gambling affected the relationship between your aunt and uncle so much because he was addicted to gambling. If he was just a casual gambler betting loose cash solely on weekends it wouldn't have been a big issue inside their marriage. The problem starts when people neglect other activities and duties of their daily lives in order to gamble. Then the wife or husband will surely get made on their partners, because they will feel like all responsabilities are under their shoulders, while the other person is living irresponsibly a life of ephemeral egoistical pleasures.

The gambler can able to loss or win based on their ability to win using their involvement to the game.The gambler may loss the money in the gambling,but it won’t affect him,but the gambler may get some extra depression from the loss.So if the gambler show the loss depression to their family,it mostly leads to the divorce for the relationship.If you are in the relationship with the girlfriend,it’s better to not speak with the girlfriend on the loss day.The gambler also try to skip the time giving for the life partner because gambler was busy with doing the game and to achieve the big winning from the gambling site.But the fact is gambler also skip to give money to their family members.Finally this leads to the partition of the relationship by the gambling some times.

So many people have discussed in this thread since last year and when you check the thread they are discussing the same thing in gambling or in this thread  concerning relationship and gambling, so I will advice that is high time for the op of the thread to locks the thread because people are spamming and also repeating what they said concerning relationship and gambling, so I find out from my suggestion that its a weak man can be distracted from gambling to the marital life, so many people have suggested well.

Expect that when pages created in between 5-10 then it would be considered megathread on which it is really that understandable that the opinions and feedbacks or comments
are already that repeated all over again and again so its not really that shocking anymore. So better get used to it.  
Going back into the topic on gambling could affect relationship? Of course it will and if you do find yourself that not that responsible on the actions that you are making
towards gambling then sooner or later you would really be able to experience the worst and this is something that you must avoid in the first place.
You should not make yourself that going into this kind in point of life because of bad decisions and mistakes that you have done.

For people asking if gambling can affect ones relationship, I think the simple answer to question is yes. I've seen people's partners (especially ladies) who doesn't buy the idea of gambling and would never want to see their spouse gamble so when you meet such people, it's either you accept to quit gambling and continue to be with them or totally shun gambling so that it doesn't affect your relationship with them.

I think marriage isn't only for adults but for people with matured mind who are ready to sacrifice many things to make their marriage work and that's why if as a man, you can't sacrifice some of the things you used to engage yourself in to before marriage, then it's not good for you

I applaud your partner for being open about various things including gambling, even though generally all couples hide their gambling activities because they assume their partner will strictly prohibit gambling, even though you are given access to monitor the history of their gambling activities and I hope you never experience budget problems with your husband. If you are experiencing budget constraints then you should check again the use of betting funds on your husband's gambling account because gambling is not a machine for making profits, but sometimes we experience high losses due to the influence of emotions that cannot be controlled in gambling.

Lying will alter your relationship mostly, being a man with faults with hobbies even if not always positive I dont see as bad; this is normal everyday occurrence and should not be the biggest thing.  The easiest way to dissolve a relationship is to lie as it puts distance between the people and they are lost in their common ground even if you disagree with someone you should at least know the nature and basis of differences between yourselves.    Plenty men get drunk on a regular basis whether their partner likes that or not, its part of what they look forward to when working etc.   Thats a disagreement and I place alcohol as a greater threat in terms of vices then gambling for most people, either way the most destructive thing of either disagreement or difference would to be not open on your differences because then you dont know where you are.

[legendbtc]

Gambling not only causes economic and health damage but is also one of the important causes leading to broken family happiness. There are many cases where families are separated and broken up because gambling addiction cannot be overcome well. What I find most serious is that families with children addicted to gambling often cannot maintain long-term harmony and happiness. At the same time, they cannot raise their children in a healthy, positive way or even increase the risk of gambling addiction in children.
If a person has a severe gambling addiction, it can affect relationships with friends and the community, leading to emotional loss, separation, and difficulty maintaining relationships. People around them may also gradually stay away from them because they do not want to get involved with a gambling addict.

[Iroh]

Gambling is still perceived as a thing of irresponsibility in my area, it has been a great deal over here. Once people around here notice that you are a gambler they start looking at you as someone who is not trustworthy to deal with. Despite the stories of people winning gambling has not really been accepted fully in my neighborhood.

It would be quite difficult to change the perception people in your locale have embraced over time. You wouldn’t fault them either as there are numerous cases abound of gamblers(most likely gambling addicts) displaying extreme reckless and blatant irresponsibility. As irresponsibility in an individual is clearly visible to all, people have for far too long seen and heard stories of gamblers and the problems that arose from being irresponsible.

It’s a long shot but you could try and with your actions and those of your responsible friends, start to change the mindset of people in your community that gamblers can also be responsible.

[n0ne]

For sure, it affects the relationship. In my understanding, most of the gamblers here were of the middle class and wanted to have a better financial life. To this end, different people choose different paths, and most prefer gambling as it is an easy way of making money when we see it from the outside. The reality is different, and many won't understand it. This is where the problem arises, after losing a good sum, the mind won't rest to stop gambling. They want to recover and end gambling, which isn't possible, and when he keeps trying, his or her loss will surely have an impact on his or her personal life.

Our lives can either be good or bad depending on the decisions we take. Our partner cared so much for us and they would want us to bounce back to a life of regrets and lose because gambling do collects every penny when one is an addict in gambling, the whole matter become worsen. Gambling is not everyone but the wise gamblers can actually be indulging in this activity and not also give up on their relationship, having a smooth end. Sometimes I wonder how these set of people are able to do it because things are going a little bit messy down here.

You are truly lucky to have a husband who can be responsible for gambling and can still control himself. Many husbands lose control of themselves when gambling or after they have finished gambling, so it will only cause problems for them and their wives.

Your husband must really maintain control of himself because there is no guarantee that he will still be able to do so, especially if he gambles more often. And you, as his wife, must pay attention to him by inviting him to do more activities so that he doesn't just spend his time gambling. Otherwise, he could be dragged into gambling even deeper.

It's lucky her spouse can control his gambling, but caution is needed. Gambling is unpredictable, so even the most regulated people can get into riskier habits. Not only is he gaming responsibly now, but his future gambling frequency and intensity may increase. With habits and addiction, the human mind is fascinatingly complex. Even with his responsible gaming, he risks developing a problem as he gambles more. She must stay involved in his gambling to develop open communication and understanding. Encourage him to do other things to promote healthy habits and interests, not just divert him. She can assist him keep gambling as a hobby by broadening his focus and time. Keeping gambling a choice, not a need

Yes they love us and they always ready to forgive ore every mistake and every wrong work we have done. But one we addected with gambling at the moment we forget everything that who is yours who wants you who is stand with you etc. That mostly effect on a gamble mr relationship. Everyone want to stay with their parents but at the moment they thik they don't give time that create distance between them. That's the reason usually relationship break. There is an other things happen you are facing losses but you still addected with gambling at the end you have nothing for that reason your partner lives you because you didn't care about him or her. That's the reason a relationship effect becose of gambling.

[Accardo]

If a gambler realizes that his gambling activities can make his relationship with other family members experience undesirable things, he should try to reduce his gambling activities. He needs to get closer to the other members of his family so that their relationship can be restored to normal. He also doesn't need to gamble to get pleasure, but he can do activities together with his family members, which can also provide pleasure. This will benefit him and other family members more because they can become closer in their family relationships and provide comfort in their household. But they can continue gambling, and as long as they can take good care of themselves, their household relationships will not be disturbed because they can differentiate between their gambling activities and their household.

Creating fun activities with his family would help him a long way in regaining his attitudes back and love his home once again. Gamblers visit casinos out of boredom and money. While some doesn't care about the money, they need fun at all time to stay happy. A man who runs a healthy family shouldn't bother about being addicted in gambling. He could be gambling once a while and it won't cost his home any much trouble. The main problem is gambling every day. It's not advisable because things could get out of hand some day. He could spend the money meant for gambling on other activities like visiting the zoo with his family. Those memories can help reconstruct his brain and make him think accurately. Nothing is wrong with developing a habit. What is problematic is failing to moderate one self and acting in a way that people close to us now suffer because of our gambling habit.

Gambling can affect relationship in so many ways especially if the gambler is an addict. Imagine someone I know planning to place bet using all is salary for a month believing the single game he wants to play is a sure game. He was later advice to use half of the salary instead of all. The funny thing is that the game went losing. What will have happened to him and his relatives if he has used all his salary. This will definitely affect his relatives financially.

Luckily, I didn’t have to go through this, but my friend found out that her husband had a serious gambling addiction, and as a result, it had a very serious impact on their family budget, because he lost a very impressive amount.

Yes, that's big, because gambling often has a negative point of view, so it's very likely that our partner will also have a negative point of view. It's not strange if our partner has a negative point of view on gambling,  because that's a normal thing. If I were married, I would prefer to stop gambling even though it is difficult or even impossible to do, but I will still try because I don't want to have financial problems because I still like gambling. because it is for the good of myself and my family that if I win I can stop gambling.

It is clear that if they are married and one of them is addicted to gambling, it is likely that they will have problems with their finances which can spread to other things which can also trigger arguments  and even fatal separation. I don't know what would happen if a couple had the same habits or were both addicted to gambling, maybe their lives would be filled with negative things, maybe that's because I can't guess clearly.
