Do you regret also for ever knowing about gambling?

[swogerino]

I don't regret it as I never felt bad gambling except the few times that I overdid it.I know it is my responsibility to behave correctly,to know when to quit and not go deep down to lose money I cannot afford to lose as that would only bring negative consequences.Based on this I think that it depends on people character,the ones with a weak one most probably regret it a lot while the people with strong character are the ones who don't care what happens to them as they are strong enough to overcome any situation no matter how bad it can be.

Someone introducing us to gambling may be unintentional, But there are still many cases where they are taking advantage of us. They introduce us to gambling so that they can get referral bonuses. This is deplorable.
But in the end, the fault is still ours. Our money and the right to decide still belong to us. If we are addicted, it is because we cannot control ourselves. What we need to do now is to find a way to escape addiction. Asking the closest person to help us is a perfect way because people with an addiction will not be able to escape their gambling addiction on their own.

We should have known if they wanted to take advantage of us because we have been friends for a long time and already know their character. If we already know, it depends on how we respond to gambling, and if we see that it doesn't provide any benefit to us, instead of just giving us a lot of losses, we should not gamble too often or even not gamble at all. It will be safer and more profitable for us because we don't have to feel any defeat from them. But usually, we end up getting deeper into gambling and experiencing a lot of problems, so we end up becoming addicted to gambling and start blaming other people, especially the people who introduced us to gambling. And yes, if we are addicted to gambling, we can ask for help from the people around us to help heal us so that we don't have a gambling addiction for long.

Yeah you read the question correctly.

I got this taught while involved in discussion with some of my friend today, it was round of friends and we were practically catching up after some old memories in high school so discussion led to discussion and the issue of regretting to ever knowing how to gamble came up and believe me it was a very serious issue as one of my friend was practically blaming the other for the whole problem is currently going through right now as he constantly gambles his money away and at what avail? was the question being asked to the friend who actually inviting him to a gambling house during highschool. The matter looks childish  at first because the whole table of friends there were all gamblers including myself but we all never reached the height of complaining or blaming someone for our gambling ethics.

So I was wondering if some folks here too feel the same way or it was just a matter of grudge and hatred for the particular fellow to stir up such arguement.

Sometimes I feel regret when I have large losing streak and this may be common condition experienced by other gamblers, but regret doesn't always appear like that, it just when I spend too much money betting.
But I never blame anyone except myself for why I did this, even though I often give positive advice to other people but actually do bad things like this and sometimes I also have the desire to stop without gambling but in fact it very difficult because gambling is like a place to give I'm a pleasure.

Yes, your gambling perspective is insightful. Not everyone has this nuanced insight. You know, most people struggle with responsible gambling and often go too far. You're right - its about self-knowledge. "strong" people have an edge. They can withstand pressure and storms. But remember that even the strongest can fail. It's about being ready for anything, not not caring. We must watch the fine line between confidence and overconfidence. Strike a balance in gambling, as in life. Recognizing one's fallibility, even in strength, may be the greatest wisdom. Your self-awareness and accountability are admirable.

[Wiwo]

I count every step with joy and I have zero regret for gambling in fact I have become better with gambling and I have been able to learn a couple of thing from gambling that is reflected in my life today such as financial management,  discipline and not to be greedy.

All this I have learned through my mistakes and losses from gambling because most times,  we tend to overdo things some time and that has had a resultant effect on us which we turn to lessons and we are now better off with those lessons,  so for sure,  I have no regret of any form for gambling.

Op your friend was just being emotional about the whole thing and he let his emotions get in the way of his speech . Just because someone Introduced you to gambling doesn't mean they also have a role or a major as to how you later chose to go about it. From all indications he just looking for whom to take the blame for his irresponsible character and his doing that through emotional blackmailing of your other guy.  I didn't get introduced into gambling by anyone and even if I was introduced I wouldn't go blaming that person for whatever happens to me based on how I approached the activity.

Anyone whose intention is to gamble be it for fun/entertainment or as a source of alternative income which is not encouraged should spend more time planning, scaling, setting limits, researching, and executing in Small Amounts. And Loosing first time lots of money is a good lesson. Loosing at first will leave you with a lasting impression and lesson about gambling that winning at first. Do not ever keep gambling without a strategy put in place.

Well we are only human, so obvious we try to find something or someone to blame other than ourselves in bad and emotional moments. Losing a lot of money in gambling is one of the triggers of such emotional moments.

The best thing to do is realize that becoming rich or making an income with gambling is nearly impossible. When they realize that, gambling starts seeming like an form of entertainment only. Figure out how much that entertainment is worth to you, in terms of money.

I would never gamble more than a very small amount of money/day. You really don't need to chase the adrenaline kick of that large bets when you can feel it with smaller amounts.

We would really be loving on pointing out fingers and it is really just that a very common human being behavior on having like this on which we are really putting up all the blame to someone on who would really be able to be on spot on.  There would be no regret scenarios or situations if you are really just that mindful about your actions because if you dont then you would really be ending up on getting addicted on which this is something that we must avoid on the first place. Gambling is really just that for fun but if you are that someone whose really that playing for making
income then it would really be giving out that kind of desperation kind of emotion on which it would really be pushing you to play even further and this is something that
wont be new in gambling field.

This is the common action of newbies since they want to point out to someone their mistake made. Since they want to validate that they are not doing something wrong if there's no one teaching them this activity or disturbing them while they are in game. If they could just accept the fact that the mistake done its because they are gambling to much or over expecting something without doing any discipline for sure they can get over. But for sure if this people will gain a lot of experience from gambling for sure they will never blame anyone next time nor regret why they continue to gamble and lose but rather enjoy each moment they gamble in moderation.

Do not ever keep gambling without a strategy put in place.

While it depends on different categories of people, we need to understand the type of gamblers who fall for these mistakes of regretting the act of gambling. The lonely players tend to regret gambling, newbies without strategies also regret failing too many times in gambling, and those with a lack of self-control. Many other people can regret gambling, but we can interlink them according to their behaviors and childhood neighborhoods or even family rules. Some kids who grew up around gamblers, even without research, would think gambling is quite a good money-making method. If the player doesn't win enough money or loses his money he'll feel a rush of regret on his brain. Some might end up crying or feeling deep remorse for spending their money with no caution. Hence, I'd say that those with strong character, are responsible gamblers who play to enjoy the process. And doesn't care whether they'd win or lose. This means that such a player already budgeted some money for gambling and it won't affect his financial responsibility. While those who regret gambling, may be close to problem gambling, they still need some gambling orientation like putting a strategy in place, before gambling.

Moreover, a gambler with a strong character can still regret his action, if he's faced with some problems, which led him to gamble irresponsibly. It's rare to maintain our self-control in all situations or conditions in life. Many people who never gambled for the first time, spent money in gambling because of a piece of sad news or depression. And the gambler with a strong character isn't exempted. As gamblers, we can't detect for sure, when we'll make a mistake or have a problem gambling. And when that happens, we have to regret our actions. The major problem is having to regret every single time we gamble. Which isn't great, but sometimes every gambler will regret making a gambling mistake. Hence, my advice would be for gamblers to control their actions or decisions, not to repeat a mistake over and over again.

[Vaskiy]

Many times I've felt bad/regret of getting into gambling. I never blame anyone, because myself got into gambling. I could've been free from debts, if I hadn't gambled/known about gambling. Now things have changed and I wasn't unable to end a day without gambling. Considering the past days now I've changed alot and never try to gamble beyond my ability. The debt caused out of gambling is big and the same keeps me running to have my life on the track.

[klidex]

No, I have never regretted getting to know gambling, even though it was initially my friend who introduced gambling to me, but the decision to gamble was my own which had full control.
In fact, my friends have been able to use gambling responsibly up to now and I can also control myself well, so even though I gambled and lost a lot of money, it was my own fault because the one who bet was me and my friends only told me because of my decision when it comes to gambling, it's in my own hands, they only introduce and don't force me to gamble, it's just that my friend likes to tell me about his daily activities, including his gambling activities.

talking about your friend I understand why he is like that, maybe because he finds it difficult to stop his addiction and then blames other people for introducing gambling, but he shouldn't behave in a way that creates hostility because it is his own fault.
Even though he shouldn't blame other people for the gambling he's been doing all this time and he should understand the impact and the risk of gambling that he should blame himself for being tempted to gamble if it ends up being addictive and difficult to stop.

I have already reviewed more than 20 interviews with gamblers who had serious gambling problems, and the interviewer always asks them at the end: Have you ever regretted what you had to go through?
Of course, he means that such gamblers have a bitter experience, and no longer approach gambling games, but at the same time they lost the trust of loved ones and also spent a lot of money.
And of course everyone says they are very sorry. And it's not even about the huge sums lost, but the trust that is already very difficult to regain. After all, it takes a lot of time and effort to restore trust.

[mamesso]

He should not blame others for a gambling habit that is difficult to break. In my opinion, this type of person cannot be a friend, he is too selfish and always thinks other people are wrong when he cannot control himself over something he often does. He must think positively to deal with the problem he is facing, whether his friend was in the wrong for taking him to a gambling place during high school or whether he was in the wrong because he was unable to control his emotions and desire to continue gambling.

Blaming people will only add to new problems, he must correct himself for all his behavior which makes it difficult to stop gambling. Because things like this will happen, it is really necessary to control your emotions to be a responsible gambler.

When I was still struggling to change my life from addiction ? yeah I started to regret my decision of being a gambler but that does not stay that forever.

Because eventually as Now I am addiction free and can manage to stand from table every time I wanted and needed?
I must  say that I I am thankful of being learn and entered gambling because this gives me more understanding in life , makes us(me and Wifey) to become more stronger in trials in life.
and makes me more closer to my family and friends and also find out whom I can rely  and trust because of  my darkest day in the past.

[lienfaye]

So I was wondering if some folks here too feel the same way or it was just a matter of grudge and hatred for the particular fellow to stir up such arguement.

It's not right to blame the person who introduced gambling to you because in the first place it's your own decision to play and you have an option to stop at anytime. If you became out of control it's because of your own action, for not not having discipline despite of the risk. In my case, I don't regret to know about gambling. I started playing card games when I was young with my grandma. It became our bonding when she was still here with us.

Nevertheless, Gambling has a positive and negative effect (and I am guilty for experiencing its negative effect when I became out of control before). But it depends on the gambler itself how he/she treated gambling because that's how you'll know if it is a good influence or much better to just stop since you can't play with a main desire of having fun.

[Justbillywitt]

I don't regret gambling. Any day I feel like am tired of gambling I just stop it. Why would I blame the person who introduced me to gambling. There is no reason enough to justify that, so I honestly think it's childish to blame someone for something that you can stop or say no to. Yes he/she might have invited you to the gambling house but it was your choice to go and your choice to gamble because if you say no he won't force you.

Feeling regrets for ever knowing how to gamble? Gambling is easy. I think that most of the adult people around the world know the basic rules of the simplest gambling games, like slots, roulette, dice, etc. Not knowing how to gamble would probably mean that you have low IQ points.
Blaming someone else for your own mistakes is totally childish, but unfortunately, most people always try to blame someone else for their own mistakes.

[bbigtart]

So I was wondering if some folks here too feel the same way or it was just a matter of grudge and hatred for the particular fellow to stir up such arguement.

I have experienced defeat in gambling games but this does not make me regret learning about gambling, because in my opinion gambling games are like that, there are times when you lose, there are times when you win and I know the risks I will take. face in gambling games. That's what makes me feel that until now I don't have any feelings of resentment or even hatred because of gambling, in fact for me gambling is entertainment when I'm lonely.

I'm sure those who regret it because they have experienced losses that ultimately had an impact on their lives. They should realize that this is not because of gambling but their own fault for not having a strategy for gambling and not having basic knowledge about gambling games.
