Jealous of your partner wining more than you do

[knuckey]

I'm not in support of two partners, maybe a husband and a wife, to be both involved in gambling. I thought I'd seen it all, but this time the woman not only gambles, but she also gets to win more than the man. After winning, she brags about it a lot to the ears of the Man, and unfortunately, he got upset and hit her hard on the chin.

Yeah, this is a true-life story. It happened yesterday. My neighbor got into a serious fight with his wife because she brags about her wins in gambling a lot. I want to know if this is something you can do? Like, when your partner wins more than you do, do you get jealous?

I'm sure it wasn't jealousy. If his wife hadn't bragged about her gambling winnings, there wouldn't have been any violence. After all, gambling is painful, especially when we lose. With his unstable emotional state, the husband couldn't hold back his emotions any longer when he listened to his wife's boasting. I think his wife should know better how to behave towards her husband for her own safety.

Gambling is a game of interest,  if husband and wife is interested in gambling, theirs nothing wrong with that...but, something will be wrong if they fail to understand how use their funds to gamble...but a situation whereby they have a budget, and they lack nothing at home..I think it's cool, because nobody knows among two of them, the one gambling luck will be with...

I thought I'd seen it all, but this time the woman not only gambles, but she also gets to win more than the man. After winning, she brags about it a lot to the ears of the Man, and unfortunately, he got upset and hit her hard on the chin.

Sometimes women do have luck, more than men, but no amounts of brags my wife will brag on presence related to gambling that will make me to injured my wife...gambling is a game of luck and it can happen at anytime...so i dont need to be upset when woman brags wining in gambling than me...

Gambling itself can create enough emotional tension on its own, so when both partners are deeply involved in betting, things can easily become toxic especially when pride, losses and competition enter the relationship but no matter what happened, hitting a partner is completely wrong for real. Anger and jealousy should never get to that level. Situation like this can happen when one partner keeps winning and constantly talk about it while the other person keeps losing money and becoming frustrated. Imagine a man already stressed after losing several bets then his partner keeps teasing him about her own wins or comparing him to herself. That combination of gambling pressure, ego even frustration and emotional tension can quickly turn into serious arguments if there is no maturity and self control.

So I just think if my partner wins more than me, I might feel little jealous naturally because we are humans but it should not cause hatred or violence between us. I also think once gambling starts affecting peace, respect and emotional control In a relationship then it is already becoming dangerous for both people.

Well, it's a weak relationship and they should probably get separated at the earliest, because if you can't support each other in something, especially if you both are doing the same thing, then there is absolutely no point in being together. People who are mostly into the same thing are supposed to have a stronger bond because they will always have things to talk about and discuss, and it should be fun if two partners are into gambling together, or if they play games or whatever they do, but if there is jealousy in between them, then it's clearly not the ideal relationship and they have a lot of issues.

If I gamble and my wife gambles too, I would be extremely happy if she wins even if I'm losing, and if I get frustrated sometimes then my wife or partner should be able to understand that and instead of teasing me, she should be supportive and motivate me so that I don't feel so bad after losing. If we both lose, then we should console each other so that it doesn't affect our relationship in general.

Things can always be handled in the right way, but it's all about the thoughts and emotions that should be under control.

The bond between husband and wife should be very deep, completely in harmony with each other. The husband and wife mentioned here may not have a very good relationship. Due to their not having a very good relationship, they may be spending their free time gambling. When a husband and wife have a very good relationship, I think that husband and wife will spend their free time very well with each other. However, I think that both husband and wife should not gamble, as this creates marital problems and reduces the love between husband and wife.

Or better leave the husband who can't even tolerate it.

Even as a husband he doesn't have the right to hit her or that is what the law says so as a man he should know better, and hitting a woman is a cowardly act that does no good but damages the reputation of his own if ever it came to know about the situation.

Unfortunately, some men think that they can do anything because she is a wife but he won't know the consequences of being such until the woman decided to leave him.

Marriage is all about understanding. I have no problem with both partners being gamblers, as long as they understand each other and are both running their home well. Understanding also includes knowing your partner’s emotional needs and weaknesses.

In this situation, the couple described in the OP lack proper understanding of each other. As a couple, a win for one should be a win for both, but in this situation, the reverse was the case.

I just hope they learn from this fight and decide to respect each other’s feelings during a win or loss, or make a decision that restrains one party from active gambling.

This is not good in a relationship. Obviously, they don't treat gambling as a source of entertainment; they treat it as a way to make money, and by doing so, they will brag about their winnings and earnings. This will eventually strain their relationships, especially if they both lose a large sum of money and are looking for someone to blame. I have seen it happen between best friends, and it's very possible between husband and wife.

Maybe that's part of their love language, lol. If both of them did not meet while competing, who can win more or who has better prediction skills over the other? There is no point for them to be debating who won more and who lost less; if their purpose of gambling is for profit, anyone who won the game, the money still is supposed to come to the family since they are married, but it's a different case here as it landed them in a fight because the husband can't bear it anymore.

[Makus]

Looking at this from another angle I think that she's just bragging about winning even though she didn't win up to such amounts of money, she might have done it to spite her partner to get him more aggravated because it is obvious that they were already In a heated argument or disagreement before it lead to the part where he got jealous but regardless of that I think that he is not really a good partner because he should be able to celebrate his wife's wins and not get jealous, for the fact that it's gambling makes it even more ridiculous.

This is not just something that gambling caused. The entire incident jsut simply showed that the man is a jealous person by nature, and even if it was in a different field, let's say work or other aspects of their life, he still would have been jealous of the wife, so it wasn't entirely because the wife and husband both gambled together. The wife's bragging might just be a way of making fun or just joking with her husband, but the jealousy got too much and clouded the man's heart to the extent that he had to strike the wife's chin. He should apologise and look for ways to work on his jealousy to make sure he doesn't become bitter when others are winning in life.

Its all about understanding and self discipline that they both lack, as a husband the best he could do was to just walk away to avoid such violence and also in situations like this self control is very important.

As a wife that always wins when she gambles, she is not suppose to be proud of it to that extent to her husband because at the they will both spend and enjoy the money.

Caused by gambling, already shaky marriage situation is regularly worsened by intentional provocation. Showing off in order to get the partner to be angry indicates emotional immaturity on both parties. Healthy relationship require that we should be supportive to each other and not be verbal or physical abusive. To live a peaceful life together, there must be honesty and respect.

Right. You got a fair point there.
If someone is willing to hit their wife of over something like winning money on a casino and bragging about it, it means there was something quite wrong with their relationship already, way before they decided to gamble.
Hitting one's wife because of something like that it just means one's relationship with her has devolved to a very bad point and unfortunately it could mean worse things could happen.

When there is domestic violence it is either time to flee that relationship or get to therapy...

Some people within the most religion branches of Christianity and Islam will say the core problem is gambling and was gambling which actually cause them to fight, when it is rather a symptom of a more inrooted problem.

In my opinion, why the man could do something that should not be done (hitting) is because of the effect of the defeat he experienced, because in my opinion losing in this gambling can indeed make emotions unstable and with the woman who won and then boasted about her victory in front of the man, it could trigger the man's emotions to peak.

I don't know who is to blame, but the one who is most at fault in my opinion is the man who cannot maintain his emotions and this even applies if the incident is the opposite, where what the man and woman experience is the opposite.

I have rarely seen women gamble. But the incident you described will create a lot of problems in their married life. However, as a responsible man, I do not think it is right for my wife to gamble. Because girls are a little more emotional. They cannot control their emotions easily. So since gambling can lead to addiction, if two heads of a family become addicted to betting together, then it can be a really dangerous situation for that family. And if we talk about jealousy, then the husband may have hit the wife because she won more, it may not be like that. Maybe the husband did not get the profit he expected, so he was upset. Then this kind of activity of the wife made him more aggressive and he finally lost his temper and hit her.

😂😂 Wow, I feel that's too toxic. I won't necessarily call it jealousy, but rather getting annoyed, not by d wins, but by d mockery. If as u said, this was a true life story, then d woman should've understood that, there is always a sense of annoyance when u loose money in gambling, being a nuisance isn't a good idea at all.

But I don't support laying ur hands on a woman despite d fact. I know, what she did was really annoying, but it is not worth it, anyways, I don't always put too much concern in lovers quarrel, but u shouldn't mock someone because they lost and u won, that is uncalled-for.

If really that was the case then it didn't makes sense in anyway , she shouldn't have mocked her husband but rather encourage and sympathize with him of his lost instead of doing what she did. Gamble losing sometimes can be very annoying so imagining  adding salt into injury, is not fair and if the man isn't discipline or bold enough to hold himself it can result into something else.

It's not advisable for partners to engage in gambling for crying out loud, what will the children be emulating from them and what advice will they give their children when both of them are gambling?, for the fact that they are into gambling it shouldn't be an issue where the wife will be bragging about her winnings to the Man, if the Man is not winning I think he should ask the wife for the strategies she uses that makes her win than engaging in a fight with her.

Bragging and making mockery of the husband is actually bad and she shouldn't have done that, there are people who can't control their temper so the lady should stop doing that as it's not healthy. The wins is not the problem and it's not an act of jealousy but the mockery message that the wife passes. But no matter the anger level no Man should lay his hands on a woman it doesn't speak good of a Man and besides women are weaker vessels.

I can never get jealous in such a situation but I also wont allow my wife (assuming I am the husband) to engage herself in any form of gambling, and if she resists or try refusing me from stopping her gambling claiming that equal right shit women always do, I won't hesitate to divorce her and send her packing out of my house cus my kind of man don't and won't entertain any form of disrespect from a woman especially the one I call my wife.

If anything actually, I really do not mind my partner (wife as the case maybe) earning/making more money than myself cus that's a big advantage, and one of such is they she won't bother me about giving her money for whatever (upkeep and so on) anymore, she can take care of herself and when I want to give her my own money, I know it's something I willed myself to do and not that I am being forced.
Such liberty or opportunity will allow me focus more and pursue my goals, whatever goals I have like buying a property, buying a car, or maybe building a new career or business.

Maybe she is not mocking his husband, perhaps she just want to play with him in a friendly way. But perhaps the husband who is on losing streak doesn't feel good and right about it. That's why it's better if the case that both husband and wife gamble, they should play separate.

I have this case with someone close to me. They both played, but they have this kind of competitive relationship. That's why the decided that when they are going to play, they won't go together as they love to go and play in land base casinos.
