Topic: Do you care about what people say about you gambling? - page 10. (Read 4691 times)

Greetings everyone and happy new year all!

Okay, today I was actually out for a little business and it happens that I almost spent all my time wasted without me even having a smooth deal, but along the line I have few games that I have placed a bet and was wanting to view my games from my phone since gambling is now mobile, what I meant by mobile is that you can access your account at any place provided that you have an internet connectivity you will login to monitor your matches.

So when I logged in, someone close to me easily peep from my left hand side and noticed that I just opened my account monitoring my games, at this point what he said is "ahh you don join dem"? Meaning you have also belong to the groups of people that gambles?

On a lighter note, I just smile and asked him if there is anything wrong while gambling or while monitoring my games and he said nothing but just that few people he knew that are gambling almost turned useless.

This now triggered me to come ask here whether you cares about what people says or sees you as when gambling, I know there are people who don't know you from time or who doesn't believe that you are a gambler and if it happens that you came across such people and their reaction towards you goes other way round would you care about it or you just totally ignore them?

Let's discuss amicably

This is why if you are into gambling and you don't want your family to worry about you, better keep it to yourself but contain your gambling habits. If you are just using your spare money and not resorting to borrowing from anyone else, you won't have any problem. And that means, if you can control yourself, other people won't know your gambling activities.

When one gambles, he gambles entirely at his own risk, which makes it entirely his personal matter. I don't care for it most of the time Who cares about my gambling? Because this is completely my own personal matter. Some use gambling for fun and some use it as a source of income.I support both. But sometimes it's worth caring who says what about your gambling . Because sometimes when you become more addicted to gambling you don't realize its negative aspects.At that time you can find your mistake from other's opinion

It's good that you are not influenced by the opinions of others and you do not borrow money, but I think that any player is treated as a potential person who can ask for money in the future, even under a false pretext. The acquaintances around you think so because you are not like that, but because they have heard different stories from other families and acquaintances about how their brother or son began to borrow money under fictitious pretexts in order to continue playing. Of course, there were stories about how they still have not repaid these debts, that's why people immediately think that those who are into gambling will sooner or later ask for money in debt.

Gambling in my area is legalized but prohibited for an under 18 years person, on this note I don't really care about what people are saying about me gambling, though I used to before but not anymore because am bold and strong enough to take responsibilities for my actions perhaps i only gambling within my risk tolerance level, i gamble with my personal money, i don't borrow to gamble, so there is no way it is affecting the life of those around me, but yeah people are only concerned about what will happen to you if addiction sets in based what they might have seen from an addicted gambler forgetting that there are also those doing it without being addicted.

I don't know how you are social, but I suggest that you don't care too much about what other people say, because there may be people who want to provide input to your gambling so that you are much better in gambling, but this returns to yourself and who people who gave that talk.
The experience that I experienced was, do not too ignore other people about gambling that we do, because sometimes we become selfish with something wrong even though other people want to remind it for us so that we are much better, I hope you remember it.

It's a strange topic to discuss. I am not at all interested in the opinions of outsiders, not only about gambling, but about any aspect of my own life that outsiders undertake to make judgments about. The tendency to gossip and condemn is very common. This is probably the subconscious desire of some people to find flaws in other people in order to justify their own vices. So I don't think you should worry about the opinions of outsiders. But the opinion of your loved ones is a completely different matter. That's what's important.

I don't give a damn about what they say..really.

Passion for strange things makes us become eccentric in the eyes of many people, especially these people become bees, flies, constantly prying and pointing, even causing trouble to our daily habits, instead of saying that the spread of gambling habits is embarrassing, we should admit that this disclosure is more annoying because the outsider's perspective is too different from this passion. Ignoring others can't defeat one's curiosity, a part of habit and privacy should become a secret, even if close, there will be moments of saying the wrong thing and creating more trouble.

In other words, you are interested in whether other gamblers are embarrassed about their passion for gambling, right?

As long as the gambler is lucky and manages to win, he has no reason to worry about the opinion of others about him, on the contrary, others will envy him. But as soon as the streak of luck ends, the opposite effect appears: condemnation, reproach and reproach appear in the eyes of others.

In fact, the gambler should learn to abstract from the surrounding "noise" so that it doesn't interfere with the game process. And the best thing is to gamble alone without unnecessary attention from others and the problem with "what people says or sees you as when gambling" disappears by itself.

I don't give a damn about what they say..really.

Most of the comments I have red so far are mostly saying they don't care about what people do say about their gambling habits and for awhile I feel for some of them it's because they have not really been in a position where they had to face intensed criticism and some important persons in their lives who they really care about is yet to make a comment in that regards, the main question comes after these set of persons express some concerns, let's see if you really wouldn't care.

If you care about what people say as pertaining what you do you'll end up with their own decisions but in the aspects of gambling I would say when people's opinions should matter to you will be when your gambling habits is getting out of hand and then someone had to come in to say hey this way you're going isn't good and profitable so back off, when this is the subject of the day should be when you follow suits, I know of a truth some don't like anyone saying or contributing to anything that pertains them gambling but for me I don't care what people say cause I act responsibly with my gambling habits.
