Most gamblers who are beginners in the world of gambling will definitely experience times when a position is excessive and has fatal consequences, as I said. will be uncontrollable, but gamblers who have had this experience do not want to repeat it. because the key basis for gambling is just for entertainment, not the main point of making money
That is why we must be able to control our spending in gambling places. Nobody forbids us from gambling, but the most important thing is that we must be able to control our emotions and the money we spend on gambling. Don't ever be tempted to always spend money on just one day, we can still try it tomorrow and there is a possibility of winning. Because I believe there are days when we lose and there are also days when we win and make a lot of profit.

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

Nope, I don't care what anyone thinks or says about my gambling, as I've earned all the money I put into this form of entertainment so nobody has a right to judge that. I think this is a fair response, at least if you are responsible with your money and do not lose it all, then go begging or getting more devious about how to raise more funds because you've lost so much. If you expect to lose all your money in a session at the casino, but occasionally walk away up a bunch of money, then that is the right mindset to be in. Very few people are able to win at a casino consistently and they will be skilled experts who have practiced a game they can win - like poker - over time.
Exactly, when you consider what some people are saying about you, I doubt you will do well. Many people see gambling as a waste of time because you can't do better things with your money, it's very hard to see someone that is watching football is not betting on football matches, it's just for you to maintain how you bet because many people are addicted to bet and they can't do without it, and that's why some people will be saying things about gambling because you're already addicted to it and it'll be very difficult for you to get something reasonable, because all your thinking will be in game you will bet next day. and when you don't have money and you are already addicted to it in will definitely be huge issue to you and he can make you started collecting debt that you can't afford to pay back, Because you don't have a source of money, others will perceive you as wasting your time and having no idea what you're doing. Anyone enjoys winning, therefore even those who complain that you are wasting time when you win they won't tell you the truth, because they will receive a piece of your cashout if you tell them you won the bet.

If we look at it from a gambler's perspective, we as players will definitely still hear advice from our friends or family about gambling. It's as if we are being chased by the thought of wanting to return the losses due to past defeats by continuing to play. because that's where I lost, so that's where it also has to come back from.
It's not wise like that, but that's the fact. and I'm sure everyone has experienced thoughts like that.
Some gamblers will not easily listen the suggestion from other people, especially for people who often playing gambling. They will still playing gambling and will not thinks about their lost money in gambling before. They just forget about the feeling of lose that they already gets in gambling and wants to recover their lose money. But if they can act wise in gambling, they will not do like that instead will trying to listen to other people suggestion because that suggestion is good for them. They will starts to thinks to reduce their gambling activity because they already see what happens to them and they don't wants to gets the same experienced again. They will not trying to recover their lose money but will trying to change their activity in gambling with the other things. It's not wise like that, but that's the fact. and I'm sure everyone has experienced thoughts like that.
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.

~snip~
I don't care about what other people say about me because I am gambling. This is because I gamble responsible and I don't use my gambling activities to disturb anyone's peace. One thing that I have noticed is that whatever you do in life, people must always talk. If you watch out, sometimes the people that are saying all these because you are gambling, are people that you are better than. This is why I just keep on wondering why would you think I will become useless because I am gambling. Indeed, in life, whatever we do, we are always gossiped about by people, even if we do good things, it seems like what we remember is our bad things. So we really need to be careful in doing whatever we do if we don't want to hear about their conversations which might be hurtful. We live in a society so it's natural that it becomes a conversation even about gambling, especially if gambling is illegal in your country, there will always be bad talk but don't pay attention to it.

Basically it's true as you said above that this is life where there are always people who don't really like us and they may always find fault with us, but as I said above because we are talking about the context of gambling then I don't think everyone will really blaspheme you, There is a possibility that some of them care about your safety because after all gambling always has the possibility of bad effects that can occur at any time, so I think there is nothing wrong with filtering the ideas they throw at you by identifying their criticism, if for example the criticism contains concern then I think there is nothing wrong with being reconsidered.
You are right, bro. Nothing is really wrong with filtering some criticism thrown at someone (a gambler). Some people criticize out of the care that they have for their friends or relatives who are taking their gambling lifestyles to the edge, but on the contrary, some people just hate gambling, and they therefore hate anybody who gambles. So, what I actually means is that, the fact that someone doesn't like gambling should not make him or her talk ill of others what love gambling and are participating in gambling activities.
You know that there are some people who just believe that gambling is very bad because it makes people lose money, so their belief is that anyone who gambles is not responsible for wasting their money.

This is not a question to ask because in this life,if you are somebody that is always been scared of what people say about you,I don't think you can ever do anything your mind says you should do.Therefore,I know people see gamblers as people who won't become anything,and people who are wasting money,but I don't have to look at that because those same people that were insulting you for gambling are the same people that will celebrate you for winning big if you should eventually win big through gambling.It very good that we keep on trying because nobody knows where the luck will come from.
I think we all deserve some level of privacy with the things that we do, just because you gamble doesn't mean everyone must know that you gamble for real. Most youth today spent their time to gamble when they are bored and for other reasons but because youth gamble shouldn't give you the assumption that all youth gamble, so I don't know where people are going to know if you actually gamble in real unless you say it to them yourself.
The only place I will think people should care about gambling is if their doctrine doesn't support gambling, if you're a person with faith and you value it very well, then that's another case differently but this doesn't mean anyone has the right to tell you what you do, what you do is entirely up to you and what your mind tells you about gambling. I know Islam is one of the doctrine that disallowed gambling and makes people see you as person who is defile the teaching of prophet.
and control because there are ones who cant really be able to do such thing and instead there would really be those conflicts with other people. This is why they would really be opting out to choose on hiding on what are theyre doing not only just on playing gambling but also in other things as well. Its that just that so common that people would be hiding all the things that they are dealing with and they cant really just that make themselves show up on the things that they are dealing with. For me i wont really be putting up any care about other peoples sentiments but doesnt mean that i would really be showing up on the activity that i've been dealing. People has always something to say against you on which its not that a shocking truth.

Honestly i don't have to care about what other people say regarding why am gambling as long as i know am not gambling irresponsibly, we don't have to go by the voice of the crowd sometimes because they are nothing than nuisance in some cases, whereas when we are only doing something that is not right, should then be when we have to consider the advise from other people concerning what we are doing, everyone have his freedom to say whatever thing they feels about us or gambling.
Exactly mate, if a gambler knows that he's not gambling in a bad way then there is no need for the gambler to care about what other people are saying about him. And I know that it's only those that's not a gambler that will say bad things and things that will hurt you because they don't like gambling. The only way a gambler will bad things to his fellow gambler is when they know that the other gambler is gambling irresponsibly and they have tried their best to advise the other gambler to gamble safe but he didn't listen, but outside that, I don't think a gambler can say negative things towards his fellow family.

In any case, each player has close people who can influence the player’s desire when playing gambling. For example, a player can be furious and make inappropriate bets compared to his wallet, but he will be afraid of his wife if she finds out about this, but still walk on the edge of the blade. And as soon as she finds out about this, he will be afraid of her and she will yell at him, threatening him with divorce and children. I think that this would definitely make me stop, because if I lose my family, then why win in gambling or I don’t understand the moments.
It will hurt you a lot when important family members or your own people discuss your bad habits and blame you. However, it is foolish to care if an outsider or a stranger discusses your gambling issue because it is completely your personal matter to spend your money and time on gambling. Gambling is not always a bad thing. Sometimes gambling becomes a good medium to give us a lot of happiness even in our worst moments when only you can understand the feelings of gambling. So I don't think it's logical to care if anyone other than your family members discuss your gambling.

I hope that's not your experience. sometimes the role of the family is also important in making control of such decisions. the most important thing is to keep you in good condition. You can imagine if you just play alone and become addicted. it can be without control from you and also without control from other people as an alarm.
But in other cases, we often feel the influence of other people, such as friends who accompany us when gambling, on the betting decisions we make. Of course, you have received suggestions from friends who came to see our game. and without realizing it we follow directions from our friends because maybe we think they are more experienced.
Well OP so far as you're taking responsibility for your actions and inactions, you put food on your table, clothes yourself and your family, provide a home of your own I don't really think it is necessary to listen to people's opinion about how you choose to live your life. In other words, the person is indirectly telling you to gamble responsibly because he has seen some persons that became wayward as a result of playing gamble though some persons see gambling as a game for wayward people but it's really because of people that don't gamble responsibly that made it looked as if gambling is bad if not Inasmuch as you can be able to meet up your daily obligations despite being a gambler I think no body will see you as part of the wayward gamblers. However, anybody's opinion doesn't really matter on how you choose to live your life, but let it be that you live a life that you will not be measured together with people that can't add value to their own lives.
A good opinion you have here, in everything we do our individual decision surpass everything, but it must matter to people that are concerned about you how you go about your life, it is normal for people to give us advise but what's matters is how authentic and helpful such advise is, it is known by many that gambling is addictive and it has the power to change people from their normal self, even though people opinion doesn't count in your life, you should also be concerned about what you do that triggers advise from extra body.
As for me if I am gambling irresponsibly I will definitely care about what people say about my gambling habit, there is a saying that mad people doesn't have shame but their relatives do, apart from gambling if I do something that doesn't portray good about me despite they money I make through such, I will have to rethink about it.
Point of corrections, gambling doesn't have a negative side because it is a game of chances of which you can be lucky to make it through gambling except if you become addicted and deprive yourself of some other important things you should do in life and spend more of your time gambling. Have you ever seen someone that has been very responsible in gambling and wins sometimes then someone starts criticizing their gambling habits? The reason why people think that gambling have a negative side is when they come across an irresponsible gambler that gambles with all his money and become addicted which can lead to living some kind of awful lifestyle. It is not good to keep one's gambling habits completely secretive you can still confide with someone you trust so that in a situation whereby you are going a stray they will check up on you and give you advices that will make you regain your senses.
