How did you react at people around you when you lose in gambling?

[Gozie51]

However, after we are both done I decided to walk him to his house reaching there one of his son ran to was him to welcome him as usual but I was shock the way he reacted to his son, he just shouted at him and order him to go inside. That was very rude of him so to speak but am pretty sure his actions was as a result of his lost.

Your friend behaved as young as his child's age and it is good you confirmed that his action is rude. I believe that your friend isn't friendly with his household because family is the thing that he would have remembered that will take off whatever pain he has in his heart away. Look at an innocent child that would have made his father happy but the father chose to transfer aggression to him. No, that is not right. Gambling should not be a do or die stuff, it should not have the title of 50 cent album, "get rich or die trying". It is suppose to be done with the tune of game so that you know it is chance and you won't have to gamble with so much that when you lose, you want to also pull the roof down.

I can understand how significant lost in gambling can making one to start reacting rude to people around them, what about you how did you react to people around you when you lost money in gamble?

Transfering aggression when you lose doesn't show maturity of understanding the game of gambling. I don't react that way because I understand that you have to gamble with the amount that you can comfortably forfeit. Gambling is not a get rich thing. Imagine losing such amount of money when you are just a hussler and not a celebrity.

[Agbamoni]

Your friend should not be allowed to gamble anymore if he can't control his emotions. No one forced him to gamble. I understand the responsibility of taking care of a family, at the same time, he wasnt forced to start a family.

One way to know a responsible gambler is through his actions whenever he loses or wins. As for your friend, he should be stopped from participating in gambling activity if now he might do worst if he loses an amount bigger than what he lost today.

Yesterday I was having some time with one of my very good child hood friends so we both had fun together at one joint close to his area after much conversation he was able to disclose some of his betting slips that he lost so much money up to like $800, though he wasn't that happy but as my guy I was just trying to cool him off and to make he see reasons why he should let it slide and shouldn't be disturbed by it.

It's nothing serious honestly,but just expect to be mocked,judged and sometimes pitied by them.Unfortunately,everyone has something to say about you and your life,but just pay attention to useful and honourable feedbacks from everything.Your ability to remain calm/unbothered in such situations keeps you ahead without messing with your emotions.

[Botnake]

Most people turn emotional and get carried easily by anger and deal the people around like its their fault why they are at loss. But is it really helping or just worsen the scenario? Because for me, its not making us feel better or lessen the negative emotions.

This is a reminder to never enter gambling when you tend to get easily controlled by your emotions. You will only lose more because you are attracting negative energy. Instead, learn to accept the losses heartily because that's the nature in gambling.

If you can't deal with gambling losses the right way, then never push thru gambling and cut it off immediately.

How do you stop him when he can gamble anywhere provided there's network. It's hard to tell people how to reach over disappointed. That's why you don't gamble with so much expectation, when you gamble, believe you will not win ,that alone will help you control your emotions in case it comes out negative. It won't weigh you down because you already processed it before it happens.

But when you carry a whole family pressure into gambling, and you lose, it will affect those around you, your behavior will change towards them. We shouldn't allow gambling to distract us to that extent. It's just few of my friends that know I gamble, when I lose you won't even know, same as when I win. I see gambling as a private lifestyle.

[CryptSafe]

In my country, such an amount is a big one when converted, so I see his anger, but nobody forced him to gamble, or does he not know that gambling is all about risk, and one should gamble what they can afford to lose? He went too far, shouting at the innocent child for nothing, and that would put fear in that child, and it is not something that child would easily forget so easily. Sometimes, it is good to stick to what we can afford to lose while gambling so that we do not get emotional if anything goes wrong.
As for me, I gamble what I can afford to lose so I do not allow such to come between me and anyone because I choose to play games, so I should be responsible enough to recieve and accept the outcome of the game without any emotional breakdown.

Anybody can react that way. Sometimes we are tempted to gamble with more than we can afford to lose. When we end up losing big, it would have a negative effect on our emtions. If it happens ones in a while, thats not bad. But it becomes a problem when such an individual reacts to his children everytime he losses. I agree that he should stop gambling if he cannot control his behavoiur since gambling involes losses.

Different gamblers have different ways they react to losses but the worst is when it makes the gambler react physically towards the people around them, especially their love ones. Gambling shouldn’t be that thing that makes us lose our temper or throw a tantrum all over the house, this is in fact the worst position any gambler can find himself and anyone who finds himself here should immediately seek help.

Maybe he's a tough dad to his kids whenever he losses big, and a kind father when the wins comes big, considering the happiness of the child running to the dad in expectation of jumping on his body and getting lifted up to the shoulders of the dad, which turned out void, it shows how great the player is to his home, if not for the sad experience he's had over his lost money, which was to be used to settle financial needs of his wife and kids. The gamer's reaction wasn't nice, but he's not to be blamed, losing so much in one day can be very frustrating.

You should not understand that the effect of something makes people to act rude to others, that is a bad behavior that if you understand you tell them to continue that bad behavior.
If that your friend was not a gambler and he had a bad day at his office or his business did not go through he will react the same way to his child and others.
I don’t let’s my gambling lose make me to be rude to others because they don’t deserve bad reactions from me because of I choose to gamble and lost.

If you are really that expecting that much on gambling and really believe that you can make money out of it then it wouldnt be shocking that once you lost then you will get angry and stressed out on which anyone that might approach you even your own family will definitely be able to hear out or treatment on which it is that absurd or something that shouldnt be doing by someone specially if you are a father. In this case on which that you do know that gambling could lose you money and you dont want that then its better not to gambling at all in the first place. Nothing beats out on having a good relationship specially with your kids while they are still young and not just that with that shouting or being rude to them specially if they greeted you once they you got home. As fathers then this kind of moment is something that you do need to cherish on and not something that you can neglect or trying out to make it worthless. Time comes that you will be able to regret since you had just that missed out or trying out to reject once your kids grown up and leave you alone.

I know of some gamblers that react somehow to those around them, once they noticed being unable to win a bet they thought could have been a winning game, though this does not change anything, instead we have to let go and prepare for some other time experience in playing, there's no reason to transfer losing aggression over those around us as it changes nothing.

[Orpichukwu]

No matter how much I have lost or how fast I lose my bankroll, I only battle it with myself because it was my decision which led to that amount of loss I incurred and not those around me. It will really be unjust for me to transfer the anger which is caused by losing to another person who has done completely nothing wrong to me.

I normally don’t feel so good when I don’t get to win a god number of my bets. When I’ve got such a run that I expected something to keep a good mood and no win comes forth, I feel bad and it extends to those around me. I tend to be passive in discussions and generally wouldn’t be much in a mood for any disturbance. I just wouldn’t take it likely but, we can joke around certainly, that could in a way shift my mood but, that’s about it.
It’s entirely different with me on days that I win or days that I don’t get to bet much, not minding if I loss.

[silpersurfer]

It is natural to have heightened emotional responses in the reality of now. We are living in hard times where every dollar is precious. Such financial strain means that gambling losses are about more than just lost money — they are about growing frustration, fear and anger.
But that is the problem. Gambling losses are frequently inflicted on nearest and dearest, even though they had done nothing wrong. Children, partners or friends are collateral damage to transitory moods. It hurts to lose money, especially with the way the economy is going, but when you let your feelings get the best of you it’s just pouring gasoline onto the fire. In the end, the wallet-busting game of chance can take its toll on relationships too, if you don’t play it smart off the felt.

[Anayochukwu]

With this reaction I think he's not worthy to be a gambler because obviously he might likely do worster than this if it doesn't work out for the second time. So I think is high time you advice him to stop gambling permanently and do another thing if not he might do something that you would regret and by it will be too late for you to even come close to him, just for the sake of his family because this people doesn't have any tangible feelings for their families they just care about the game and at the end they wouldn't accept any outcome.

One of the characteristics of responsible gamblers is that they will not make a big deal out of losing because they accept it as part of the game. They gamble an amount they can afford to lose, the amount varies from gambler to gambler and I don't think we are responsible for the amount other people spend. Losing at gambling will not have a negative impact on responsible gamblers, but losing can have a negative impact on the psychology and behavior of irresponsible gamblers.

As a friend, I was reluctant to give him advice unless asked, of course because I thought it was a sensitive idea that he might not like. If one day he asks me to give him advice, then I will be happy to do so, but for now I will not do so even though there is something wrong with his approach to gambling.

Being aggressive because of losing in gambling doesn't shows maturity and it also means one is suffering emotionally in gambling. In gambling I'm sure we already know ourselves better and know how we will react when gambling doesn't favour us and this is a reason why should gamble with the amount thst can be afford to lose. You dont need to trust your gambling skill or believe gambling will favour you if you gamble with the only money you have with you. You will definitely feel bad when you lose money which you never planned to lose. Gambling is unpredicted and this why gamblers should go for what they can afford.

when someone loses a large amount of money in gambling it is very normal for their behavior to change, at that moment the mind is full of thoughts about the loss, anger frustration and regret work together, in this state a person often does not realize what they are doing or who they are hurting, that is why the anger comes out on close people especially family or children, but this is not right at all. they are not responsible for the loss, blaming others for your own mistake is not fair, in such situations the best thing is to give yourself some time,you need to calm down,if you gamble you must accept mentally that losses will happen, if you cannot do that then quitting gambling is the best decision, family and relationships are more important than any amount of money...

I remember the first time I lost a huge amount in gambling, it left me with such a scar that I have never gambled that much in a whole month let alone in a single session. It has been nearly 15 years, and I am still hurting about it and feeling sad about it as well.

However, that was a good lesson and I think I needed that, and not like my life got ruined because of it or anything. I know myself, if I didn't lose those bitcoins (yes plural) to gambling, then I would have cashed it out as soon as they hit 100 bucks, and would have spent it on some silly game So I think it was a cheap lesson at the time.

[Moreno233]

My gambling is completely private to me, if I win something nice, I will be happy and people will easily see the joy in my face but they will not know what is the source of such joy. On the other hand, when I lose big too, there will be this sadness that will come but it will not last for long since I still gamble according to the rules which state that one should not gamble what he cannot afford to lose.
