Some time I do care about what others say because I cant deny that what they say can be like a reminder for me to have better self control. On some other time, I dont care about what others say especially when it comes from those who do not even know how I do gamble but they say like that they know everything. I'm sure most people have similar response like me when there is a time when we care about others say and when there is a time when we ignore them completely.

Responsible gambling is not just maintaining a good bankroll or sticking to your gambling budgets but also as staying respective with your gambling life to the public.
There had been gamblers whom had already tarnished and abused the potentials of gambling with their ways of irresponsible gambling addictions that has ruined lot of lives in the case of chasing after profits so, those who doesn't gamble would always see the others that gambles being irresponsible without undermining that there are responsible gamblers.

And for these fact that I as a gambler already understood these whole sceneros so I will definitely be emotionally touched if outsider who is off from gambling talks against gambling at the virtue of catching me up in the he gambling board because there is no way you would explain to them at that moment that they would understand because they are not Into the gambling system.

It is a disease of our society that when we are connected with something, we will say something bad to people from behind. I don't really care if they keep talking about it. Yes, sometimes when I lose your self -control, maybe two things say one thing. But that does not mean that I care about their words very much.

each person has a different response. we may be indifferent to what other people say about our gambling. but if we live in a pretty bad environment with several people who often talk about us. maybe we will say something harsh to those who comment too much.
It would be better to avoid conflict because of things like that. but we will not be free from problems if our environment cannot be friendly to what we do.
So, as much as possible, don't publish what we do. including our gambling.

The thing there is we should not accept their opinion if we think that it doesn't give any sense nor contribute something on our well being. If they just criticize us for what we are doing without knowing more deeper about it then I guess much better to ignore those people and settle up yourself or those people give more valuable advices.

We surely know how to deal with our hobbies and if we make them understand that we are fine and just gamble for fun for sure there's no toxicity or conflict will happen. Also don't flaunt all your activities online or even everywhere so that we cannot catch those unwanted attentions. If we think our environment is not doing good for us then maybe its time for us to leave that and find another thing that can give us peace since mental health is important.

I will care if the person who has an opinion on gambling is someone who is in a position to offer help to me, because if the person has a bad or wrong opinion of all gamblers, it can affect whatever plan they have to help me, and make them change their mind.

If it is an opinion from people who do not matter, to h*ll with their opinions.

Yes, I agree with you, if that person will give advice and have a positive impact, of course that's not a bad thing because it could be good input and we will definitely consider it because it's a good thing, therefore it won't be a problem if someone There's nothing wrong with making good comments about gambling, let alone having an impact that if we do it can have a positive impact, because even though gamblers can't receive advice or input from other people about gambling, at least it's a positive thing.

different from the other side, because there are people who comment badly about gambling, especially if they comment badly on the gambling we do, I mean they make fun of the gambling we do, even though with the impacts and risks we ourselves accept it, sometimes It's true that other people like to interfere in our affairs where they shouldn't, and there are also people who think it's not important who only interfere with what we do. If their opinion really isn't important, it's better for me to ignore it, because there's no benefit either.

Judging from the method alone, it is wrong that it disturbs your privacy by peeking at you playing on your cell phone and logging into your gambling account. After all, if you are comfortable enough to gamble for yourself without bothering other people and are responsible then why listen to what other people say when they doesn't help anything at all in our lives, indeed sometimes people are too busy taking care of other people's lives rather than their own.

If I were in your position, I would also just smile without having to say any words because in response to their actions and behavior which disturbs your privacy, you should just smile and you can close your cellphone and account again until you can actually open your account at home without there are other people, gambling when you are alone is more comfortable.  Wink

As long as its my money and I still have self-control, then I guess they have no right to interfere with my activities and I don’t listen to any comments about my gambling activities especially if its not helping me and all they want is just to give a none sense comments. If you’re having fun with it then there’s no need to listen to them, just stay focus and be more responsible, people will always have to say regardless of what you are doing and that is a human nature.

Exactly! Dont mind those people who dont have significant say in your life. Not everyone's input is worth considering when it comes to personal choices. What’s surprising is the idea that those people who say that your gambling habits is wrong are the same people who come asking for their share of the winnings haha

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
Yeah, I care about what people say about my gambling activity. This is why my gambling activity is not exposed to some set of persons. The kind of job I do is a sensitive one because I deal with young children. They see me as a role model and are not old enough to gamble, that is why I care about what people say about me. Most people in my area don't have a positive view of gambling, so it is common to see them criticising teachers who gamble.

Another reason why I care about what people say is because of my religious beliefs. My religion doesn't forbid gambling but many people see it as immoral. To avoid confrontations with some of these overzealous religious people, I prefer to keep my gambling activity secret because I care about what people will say.

Besides all these points, I don't care what people think about me because I am a responsible gambler and gambling is not affecting any part of my life negatively. Whatever they say or think about me is irrelevant.

Personally I don't care what someone who is not feeding me thinks about me or my gambling habit. Moreover I am adult and I have the right to decide what I do with my life. You can't live your life and mine at the same time. Gambling is not a crime so I don't have to hide while gambling. People are free to think whatever they want.

As long as you have self confidence on you and you are an adult, no one could stop you from gambling. Yes, people may advise you to limit your gambling activities or do not to gamble too much so that we might become addicted. If someone tells us in this sense, meaning he is caring for us, then for sure we can listen to him and do not mind thinking he is interfering in our lives.

Sometimes people may make fun of us that we are gambling or might call us with bad names, in such cases, we have the right to ignore them or give them a strong message. Again, it depends on which intention the other person is guiding us.

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?

No one has ever said that to my face, though it might be said in my absence. When you started gambling, no one told you to do so because you are an adult and understand the risks involved. Therefore, no one has the right to speak to you in that manner because you gamble with your own money, they haven't see you going to someone else and begging for money to gamble. If someone ever sees me playing the game and decides to shout that I have join gambling group too, you need to state it clear that you are not those he know that gambling and almost turn useless because you know your limit of gambling.

Despite the fact that I don't usually check my phone while I'm in public, if you don't reveal your gambling activities to others or use an mobile app, no one will be able to know that you are into gambling.

Many people have that negative thinking about gambler that whosoever that gambles, is useless or have no future.
Comparing them to those gambling addict who can play to the extent of using there cloth to gamble. And due to this mentality has made many not to play gamble offline by choosing to play online in the comfort of there zone. Most people who chose to play online has been seen as good people over the ones that play offline because they don't know what they do. but always bringing money and confuse them that they into online business not knowing that most of them are gambling addict in disguise of bitcoin investor.
If gambling with intention to get rich, build up a fortune, I am sorry but it is unrealistic. People don't like gamblers who want to bet all money, all life with hope to become billionaires because this bet style will lead to broken finance at the end, not only for gamblers but also for their families.

If gambling with intention to entertain, get fun, refresh minds and enjoy won money if you are lucky enough, it is nothing harmful. Gambling responsible is what recommended to all gamblers but they must know who they are and can they control themselves before joining gambling.

If in other activities in life, they are kind of uncontrollable people, touching gambling will be nightmare for them and their finance.

He's not lying, we have more individuals losing than those making profits from gambling therefore there's going to be more individuals getting useless from gambling. Gambling is destroying more individuals than it's making them financially sound. Gambling shouldn't be the only thing we depend on if we want to make money as it'll disappoint us always. The society sees gambling as a waste of time and they're not wrong but we can also enjoy gambling by been disciplined.

Before gambling, we should have a budget and always make sure we're using that budget to monitor how far we have gone in gambling. I don't care about what the society thinks about me as a gambler but I won't open myself to the society for judgement so I'm always careful to not let anyone that's not my family or friends to know that I'm a gambler. I'm just avoiding to be stereotyped so I can enjoy life like everyone.

I've heard a lot of negatives comments from people around me and even from my relatives, but I don't care that much since its my own money and I've earned my money through my hard work so I deserve to spend it the way I wanted it.

You'll me more happy if you think less about the negative comments of other people around you, just stay focused and stay responsible. Though some comments and suggestions are valid, you can just take it positively and use it for your own advantage, gambling is not that bad if you are a responsible gambler.

Since gambling is an unspoken taboo in our society, those involved in gambling are generally looked down upon. I belong to a Muslim family so religiously gambling is against religion in my society. Moreover, my family members do not support gambling and according to family law, participating in this activity must be punished by the family. This is exactly what my family picture is like in all other families What happens is not my topic of discussion. In our society, the socially educated class does not socialize with those who participate in gambling, but we live socially by keeping all kinds of distance from them. Therefore, those who participate in gambling are socially criticized and socially penalized.

I have my life to live, and regardless of what you do in life, people will always talk, firstly I will consider my benefits before what other people would talk about me as gambler, am I gambling for fun or to earn money? These are two things I'm very much concerned.
lastly the way some/most gamblers behave when they're into gambling has made the society to look at them in such a way, in the sense that they end up achieving nothing and because they don't apply moderation, many gamblers don't control the way they gamble, some get addicted, while some borrow money or go extent to steal money to gamble. We should gamble for fun and not with the aim of becoming rich, so you don't get screwed as the society sees gamblers.

Assuming I'm a gambler, If there should be any questionings and cautionings, it should be backed with extra funds to be able to wager on the said principle - if not, then it's invalid.... It's even more stupid to be telling anyone how to spend their money - so personally, I don't think anyone's opinion should matter to you as a gambler.
NOTE: This doesn't affirm the fact that I support gambling.

At the same time, there could be restrictions - it depends on your marital status at the time... Why? The closest people to be affected by your uncontrollable urge would be your family ( wife and children)

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

Exactly, like some persons are just somewhat very stupid to tell others how to live their life as if they themselves are living a perfect life when if you check their life you will find out that they do worst things than you do, okay let's assume if the person that's condemning what you're doing is a womanizer that spends money on random women isn't such a person worst than a gambler? Because most time womanizers spends so much money on women just to woo them and can possibly get infected by these women and might transfer these infections to their wife so in so a scenario wouldn't you choose a gambler rather than such a person?

I don't also encourage gambling but if one must gamble let it be that you gamble responsibly and also make sure that your basic activities like providing for yourself and your family is not affected and you shouldn't be an addictive gambler as you can just gamble occasionally without making it a habit.

Not really. I don't care what they say. Let them talk about what they want to talk about because it's not going to affect you or your lifestyle. If you want, you can talk back and tell him that those who gossip are also useless. Cheesy I bet that will trigger him too.
Society is different now in my opinion. People don't really care about what others do and they are more concerned about how they will fix their own lives. I mean, that's what I noticed with most of my friends and neighbors. Gambling is just a sport now, it's everywhere. Social media bloggers are advertising it now, articles are filled with gambling advertisements, and even popular sports are also letting gambling platforms be advertised while the game is running. If there are people who will say they are "useless" then perhaps they should look at how much tax is being received by a government through gambling.
Don't be triggered by it, it's not worth discussing it with people who cannot open their minds to how entertainment is being provided in this era. And if you know to yourself that you are a responsible gambler then I don't think you should worry about that.

I think majority of us gamblers have that kind of attitude, again, in the first place, our money, our decision. They can give advise, but I wouldn't take it seriously, I mean how can someone gave advise to us if they themselves haven't went into that kind of experience?

Sure, others might argue that you are just wasting your money on gambling, but each of us here are very different, there could be real gamblers here who put bet on sports or play in casinos. But there are still haven't even place a single bet in their lives and yet giving us advises.
