Since gambling has some kind of a negative reputation built with years, then people will also talk negatively about me gambling. I and nobody likes to hear anything negative about them. That is why I would avoid such conversations or try to stop them early. I dont want to hear how «bad» I am. I wont care about what people say, because I would not hear or listen to this conversation, or will never know that they talk about me gambling.

I didn't care when I was young,didn't have my own family and used to go in landline casinos back at that time.People kept talking the worse about anyone who gambled at that time,it kept coming at me unless online gambling come to the rescue so I changed although not for real,I started going to church in on Sundays until people changed opinion about me as I could not get married otherwise,so I only started to gamble online and now I still do,I never go to a landline casino because people can start again,while I have my own family now and living happily with them,my wife knows about my online gambling and is the only one.I don't care much about people opinion but once it gets repeated so often it becomes a burden which is better to throw away.

Even though our neighbors know about our gambling activities, we don't need to think about it, especially if we can maintain good discipline. We also don't need to listen to what they say about what we do. They will never know that we can use gambling as entertainment.


Sorry but I think it's not something easy to do. You can ignore your neighbors who know about your gambling activities, but you cannot ignore the negative impacts that result. Your neighbors will keep telling bad things about you. Even though you only gamble for fun, your neighbors will see that you are a gambling addict who is wasting your family's money. I personally care a lot about what people say about my gambling if they actually know the facts. This is different from those who just guess you are a gambler. I wouldn't care even if he told the truth about me.

It has always been a key part of our entertainment scene and will never go away. Not everyone gets it. They consider gambling as a vice, which is archaic and sad. Thats our role. Winners know that gambling is pleasant when done well. Fun and possibly large wins are the goals. Its rewarding when done responsibly, with discipline and a cool head. Show everyone how to accomplish this. We must demonstrate that gambling is fun and not scary. We must educate those who dont see it. We need open, honest discussions about responsible gambling.
I agree with your thoughts. they are still stuck in old-fashioned thinking and only hear bad things about gambling. they cannot understand that gambling is just entertainment.
their views are still too rigid and negative about gambling.
but I don't think it's necessary to show them how enjoyable gambling can be if done wisely. because basically their thinking is deadlocked and they don't want to hear anything about gambling at all. so it's better to avoid and not say anything about gambling. Keep playing gambling well and as long as you don't disturb them. although sometimes our ears tickle listening to those who ridicule us as gamblers.

One of the reasons why gambling always sounds bad in the eyes of society is because they only see in terms of the bad effects that have been experienced by previous people who have experienced the bad effects of gambling due to being in the addiction phase, but they cannot see that there is a little positive side in gambling, namely that it can entertain ourselves when we are bored in the middle of free time. But on the other hand, I can't blame society's point of view because after all, it is true that gambling can have a very negative impact if gamblers do it in the wrong way.

In the end, the bad point of view along with some criticism that comes to you I think it can be used as a reminder for you so that you can always remember that gambling does have a significant possibility of bad impact. But in the end there is nothing wrong with hiding our gambling activities if you want to be free from criticism that might disturb your peace of mind.

I used to take seriously the friendly warnings and harsh criticisms that people in my inner circle would give me. But at some point, I realized that I shouldn't care what they think and say about me. I live my life to fulfill myself. I shape my life with my own choices. If I'm obsessed with what others say, I can't shape my life and I can't fulfill my life. I still pretend to listen to them. But in the end, I follow my own truth. It can be rude to ignore them. But when they are too insistent, I ignore them.

Yes, that's right because however criticism is something that we will always find because this is one part of life, whether we like it or not, the fact is that there will always be some people who don't really like us where sometimes they like to find our mistakes. True, our job is only to find out about which ones are indeed a fact where we can make the criticism as a lesson to be better, the fact is that changes for the better will always be caused by the absurd things we have done, therefore as I said earlier that it never hurts to filter out some incoming comments with the aim that we can find out about what our mistakes are that we have to fix for the good of ourselves.



I know that we don't have enough money to please some people, but I think that if some people criticize us it is because they have a lot of free time to dedicate to us, which I see as a waste of time, what do I gain by criticizing someone? nothing, but I don't know what the person who makes them feel bad for their comments gains, if I do what I like I do it and that's it, I don't hurt anyone, so for me it's enough. The truth is that I don't start to think that they are talking about me , if someone comes directly to me then if I face it, in fact I do not like problems and much less that they look for me in real life, because the truth is that they will not do well at all, I have always party of something , "He who is still, must be left still", so you should not pay attention to their comments that they say about us unless they say it directly to you, then yes, you have to defend yourself.

Yeah, you nailed it! It's a drag when people are stuck in the past, especially about something that can be totally chill and fun if you're smart about it. But whatever floats their boat, right?  There's no reason to waste energy , time trying to convince those who are unwilling to consider alternative viewpoints. We'll continue to enjoy our fun activity, knowing our limits so we're acting responsibly and within our means. In the end, their disapproval reflects more on them than it does on us. Just my 2 cents.

Gambling depends entirely on the individual and everyone likes to play freely. As far as I'm concerned if you can keep yourself disciplined while gambling then you don't need to worry about what people say about gambling. Those who cannot maintain self discipline and gamble irresponsibly will be adversely affected by gambling. If you keep yourself under control no one will know about gambling.
If you keep a secret as well as you can, you will definitely find out. Your neighbor is even smarter than just a detective. even the slightest bad thing will definitely be known, especially neighbors who don't like you.
so just let what they say as long as it doesn't affect their lives. Do what you usually do, in this case gamble, so keep gambling with your own money. They also won't know what good gambling is like. they can only ridicule and look bad at gamblers
Even though our neighbors know about our gambling activities, we don't need to think about it, especially if we can maintain good discipline. We also don't need to listen to what they say about what we do. They will never know that we can use gambling as entertainment.

The important thing is that we don't interfere with their lives and don't talk about them. We can do what we want and don't have to listen to what they say. Maybe what we do can seem unpleasant to them, so they can say various things about us.

Therefore, we should just let those who are still talking about us. We also don't need to be bothered by what they say. The important thing is that we can still take good care of ourselves while gambling and not gamble excessively.

This is one reason why most people prefer to stay indoors or gamble in private cause most persons view gambling as irresponsible or as a habit of some useless person, but what do I care, i know I'm not useless or irresponsible and I gamble with what you can afford to lose, some persons could decide to use their spare cash on drinking lots of alcohol and others smoking but I use mine to game what's the deal there.

Fuck what anybody thinks, as long as they are not the source of income fuck them with their thoughts. If you're still interested in knowing what other think about you, you may one day displease yourself just to get a good reputation. As long as you are not addicted what is to be ashamed of what other think about you. There are several persons out there who have made good wins, I mean the type that has changed their life settings, and due to their story of how they managed to gamble with small stake to make great win, other are also motivated to test gamble. Such persons can be seen as irresponsible in the eyes of other.

We do need to look at the environmental situation first in talking, who is talking, the intention and other things that might have a negative or positive impact on us, if we can already see it we can take a stand on what to do in this kind of conversation, because after all talking about gambling is a sensitive thing, so only certain people can be listened to the rest we can deflect the conversation.

sometimes if there are people who want to explore ourselves and have other goals, we are better off if we are given advice or asked, basically humans will accept advice delivered well and go into our logic.
Apart from speaking, of course we also have to be able to adapt in our actions, if we really like gambling and do gambling in an environment that is not happy with gambling, maybe it could bring about conflict, looking at the environmental conditions is important, don't let us take actions that could give rise to conflict with each other. . like by speaking what you said, of course we also have to be able to adjust to that. Not everyone likes gambling, so it's possible that there are people who don't want to discuss or hear gambling talk. But if you both like gambling then the conversation can continue.
Of course giving advice is not a bad thing, because in my opinion everyone needs advice from other people, even with suggestions. However, if we advise other people, it is not certain that our advice will be accepted by them, but that is not a problem, because at least some advice has been given.
Yes, we should be more first before knowing who really gambles in our environment, silence is better in environmental situations such as the case we are talking about because not everyone likes gambling or supports gambling, we need to be careful in the environment otherwise we will be talked about and everyone thinks badly of us for doing gambling if we are in such an environment.

Yes you are right, it's just like people's advice to us, some we can listen to and some we need to ignore, because not all advice can be accepted by us or others, basically everyone has different experiences and everyone has a different point of view, but the point is not to force our opinions to be accepted by others, or oppose other people's opinions, just shut up and do what we need to do.

I have a question to those who care a lot about what people think or say about your gambling hobby - what do you do about it? Do they force you to stop gambling? Or force you to gamble more hiddenly or privately? Does their opinion on your hobby make you sad or feel uncomfortable?

The reason why I am asking it, because like I dont care what they say about me gambling (I suppose they do it behind my back), they dont care what I will say about their passion or what they do in free time. I dont want to change anything in my life because someone says something.
Although it's not about me, I believe most people who care about this are afraid that those people would talk badly on their back in front of other people and that will compromise their reputation within the society they live in. It doesn't affect people who have free minds and don't give heed to such useless things but those who are sensitive and easily get affected by such things tend to become sad or worried if they hear people saying negative things about them.

This is probably also the reason why so many people try to hide their gambling activities because they don't want anyone to know that they gamble because they don't want to look bad in their eyes or want them to say negative things about them in the society and make them ashamed.

On the other hand, I admit that hearing criticism from other people is really unpleasant, especially if their comments are not in accordance with the facts, but I think there is nothing wrong with listening to their comments, criticism or suggestions occasionally because they might give something that does lead to our own good, such as suggesting to apply a lot of restrictions, reminding not to gamble too often or other things. and I also do this with the aim of filtering some of the comments that come in for consideration, or that means if there are some comments that contain a sense of concern for ourselves then usually I will consider it and then think and finally follow it, And I also do this in order to filter out some of the comments that come in for consideration, or I mean if for example there are some comments that contain a sense of concern for us then usually I will consider it and then think and ultimately follow what they suggest, but if for example their comments only contain ridicule or even insults then usually I just let it go.
Criticism is a part of life, whether you like it or not. Its how we learn, how we get better. I've been in the game a long time, and some feedback is gold, some is garbage. Your job is to figure out which is which. If someone's hitting you with facts, pointing out areas where you can actually improve, thats the good stuff. Take a hard look at it, even if it stings. Could be the key to unlocking a whole new level for yourself. Thats the growth mindset, thats how you level up.

But some people just wanna tear you down. Its not about helping, its about their own insecurities. Dont get sucked into that vortex. Recognize it for what it is – negativity thats got nothing to do with you. You focus on your game, your path. Their opinions dont build your future. Remember, your mental space is sacred. Protect it. Dont let useless criticism take root and drag you down. If it doesnt help you, its gotta go. Focus on the things that matter, the things that make you stronger. Thats where your energy belongs.

Yes, that's right because however criticism is something that we will always find because this is one part of life, whether we like it or not, the fact is that there will always be some people who don't really like us where sometimes they like to find our mistakes. True, our job is only to find out about which ones are indeed a fact where we can make the criticism as a lesson to be better, the fact is that changes for the better will always be caused by the absurd things we have done, therefore as I said earlier that it never hurts to filter out some incoming comments with the aim that we can find out about what our mistakes are that we have to fix for the good of ourselves.

On the other hand yes I understand that most people always want to put each other down, but that's natural because as you said above that it's a part of life, that maybe there are some people who try to trap with some criticism and suggestions as it looks "tempting", but I think it can be prevented if we are able to think rationally, and I think this is enough.

Well, I honest have never, and neither will I ever give a damn about what anyone think or say about me gambling, people are very different but some people fail to see and or understand this, who ever became useless through gambling became it because he or she choose to, and or allowed him or herself to become so.
I have a friend here who is a gambler and doing extremely well for himself, and his family, and the good thing is, it was through gambling that he became what he is today..

He had being gambling for years, and one day, he ended up winning over a hundred thousand dollars while he was playing Slot game, this was the beginning of what changed his entire life for good, this is a lot of money, he withdrew the money, invested the most part of it in assets he was sure to make mouth watering gains from, he then started a very good business for himself, bought a land and bult his house, bought a car and is now a big man, a boss of himself, gambling have changed alot of lives, regardless of many who gamble and become useless in the process.

Yes, as long as we play safely and in control, we don't need to worry about what people say to us, unless we play carelessly, it's important to listen to advice from other people because it can help us introspect so we can play more in control, I'm sure what what people say about us gambling is definitely advice and attention to us not to gamble beyond the limits, but as long as it is under good control everything will definitely be safe, I am also often talked about by other people that I am a bad gambler.

But I never pay attention to them because so far I have played well controlled gambling and even limited the budget that I have prepared every weekend. Luckily I don't gamble all the time so I only gamble on weekends so I don't get into the habit of gambling like a gambling addict who gambles. all the time I'm just obsessed with winning and while I only gamble for entertainment, gambling requires responsibility. All risks must be borne by yourself, so as long as it's still our responsibility, don't listen to what other people say. As long as it doesn't affect your gambling, just ignore it.

If we take care of ourselves to gamble, we won't need to see what people are thinking. There are some gamblers who become so crazy about gambling that they are ready to do anything to gamble they are not aware of anything people say a lot about these gamblers. That's why gamblers don't have to worry about what people say if they are aware of gambling and not reckless.
correct as long as you are not disturbing nor hurting anyone people will never care about what you
are doing and of course as long as people are not seeing anything bad for themselves as well because
sometimes come to show concern because we are human of course not counting those stupid karen or
those who only cares for what they can find wrong to others.
Lol...well, it's your life, it's your money and your right as well. Those are my rules in this life even as I live my private life that is not even warranting anyone to poke their nose in my affairs. But at the same time, it is good that we listen to and care about some of them, especially if what they are telling you is the right thing, to say the least. This could be in many cases/forms, especially when the gambling activity is not positive for the life of the gambler and makes him irresponsible. The earlier you care about what people say for your own good, the better for you. But those gamblers who could be proud are those who are not gambling badly and are responsible in doing it.

Even if they do not win often, they are not such that gambling has turned their lives miserably. They have a lot to be proud of, but not the dirty gamblers who are only addicts. Such has caused the attention and interference of people to themselves, so what do you expect? This is why the "cared and uncared attitudes" of a thing are subjective and we should treat them based on the personality of the persons in question.

It's not always about being headstrong, it can't always vindicate us.

Not all criticism are bad, some can actually be constructive

That might be the only reason I would pay little attention to what people say about me gambling. Doubt that I will accept any suggestion from them, as I never asked for that. But I will simply collect the information they give to make a conclusion how to avoid such talks in future. To find that one point in our conversation, that has moved it into talking about my gambling experience. To know where and when to navigate conversation in future from gambling topic to something else.
You should only listen to them if they have made a valid point. Although what i can tell you is that no one is a perfect being and if someone approaches you to advice you based on your gambling addict you need to pay attention to the tone and manners he use to tell you that. Some people act like they are so perfect and whatever they feel they tell you is totally correct. My instincts are not wrong on those kind of persons, i can tell you that if you look closely into their lifestyle you will observe that they have so many bad habits and they still do some certain things which they preach to people that it is wrong. If such person comes to confront me i will tell you my mind.
