The gambler will never bother about anybody they think about themselves because they are addicted to it. Even though they won't bother about their family their main aim is to gamble.

Personally i am not a gambler, but being a gambler is not shameful also because it is a choice, and we have to respect each other’s decision in life. If you become an addicted gambler, you just need time to realize that life needs to be driven wisely. An addict gambler has still the chance to correct his direction in life without feeling shameful.

gambling is a negative thing in the eyes of society. I am embarrassed if anyone knows that I am a gambler. because they must think, why have money not used for investment, or other business, it is used for gambling.

Not all society thinks like that, I live in a society where gambling is not a taboo thing because gambling is like a traditional culture since long time ago. So people around me including me wont be shameful of being a gambler as almost 90% men in my village are used to gamble.

Now that depends from place to place , if we see in general people in societies normally feel gambling as something bad but in recent times there surely has been a change to this mentality in many places, many gamblers don't feel ashamed nowadays

Go guys!
In many cultures and countries is gambling consider as a bad thing which only the poorest and silliest ones do. Many gamblers try to hide that they gamble from their friends and families and feel really shameful for that. Do you consider gambling as a bad thing? Do you feel shameful or proud for being a gambler? If it is shame what you feel what do you about it? How do you hide you're a gambler and who do you hide it from?
Let others know!

Actually im not shameful of being a gambler,because its  my own money i  bet in gambling and i never step down  my  co-brother personal feeling,the only things that can make a gambler shameful is not controlling himself to being lost in gambling and being  penetration of debt.this is the shameful part of being a human that you can lose your dignity because only of gambling.

I don't find it shameful I gamble but I do feel shameful when I can't stop when I'am winning and end up losing it all.
I feel shameful for my lack of self control and not as a gambler.

i am not a gambler, but I think no one is really feeling shameful for being one.
I think that gamblers should fell shameful becouse you are throwing away money for fun and stupidity instead of buying something you need ortome your family needs.

Actually it's nothing there to be proud or shame in gambling. If you won some dollars it will comes to your pocket and if you lose it will be goes from your pocket.So nothing is shame in gambling and nothing is proud in it.Just use it as a game to have some fun in your free time.
Nice assessment mate, since there;s no restriction maybe from where you are and everything is just to have some fun, then this opinion is valid, everything will be balance, winning from gambling will make you enjoy the money that you will got and losing will give you lesson not to repeat
the same mistakes so nothing to be ashamed of if you are just an ordinary gambler that only seeking being entertained by this activity.
But not everywhere, specially in such places where gambling is not consider legal and where people took gambling as a shameful activity or even for such people who do not play gambling in a limit and always lose money, even such people try to sell their precious things their motorcycle, cell phone and some many other things.
I do not know that if gambling is illegal in some places or in a religion, then why people use to play gambling there and violating the rules, I think they should try to invest their money in some other profitable business which is legal not only in their religion but also their state allow them. I think in most of the places people use unfair mean to get access to physical casinos as well as online casinos.
We can see a lot of such activities that are illegal in a state but still people try to exercise such activities, in fact  they think that gambling is a short cut of earning money, and they can make a big amount of money from gambling in a very very short time without any such struggle, but they do not now about the fact, they only understand the fact when they practically enter and then realize the fact. In my country gambling illegal but still people continue playing gambling violating the rules of their state.

It is your life and you chose to gamble. As long as it is not illegal, i think it is ok and don't be ashamed that you gamble. Yes, there are countries that gambling is not a norm in the society but we are on a new generation now and everything is liberal.

That can be shameful if you are not a responsible person and you are making gambling in your first list before your family and duties. And that is making gambling as a bad habit if that is bringing them a very bad result. I'm just hiding that I'm gambling because I wanted to hide it since my family already knew about it.

True. Shame on a person if he will prioritized his gambling more than the needs of his family. There is nothing to be ashamed of being a gambler as long as you know how to set your priorities in life and do not get hooked on gambling or else you are gonna lose everything.

In my country it is also a bad image to be a gambler. If a guy known to be a gambler courts a woman and the woman knows he is a gambler, he is automatically turned down. And if a woman would bring a gambler suitor home and the parents find out he is a gambler, they will warn their daughter to get rid of the man right away.

This is serious issue in your country and better to stay away from gambling as it can effect your and family's personal life too. So it also means that gambling is either prohibited in your country or else should be avoided at all costs.  To an extent it is better as you do not lose money unnecessarily.

It would depend on which country do you live in and what type of people are surrounding you because some people see a gambler is a bad person because they usually see the negative effects or negative side of being a gambler on which they make their life miserable thats why some just like to hide themselves but if you are living on a place on which gambling is everywhere then it feels like a freedom.
I agree with you, it all depends on the country or the environment and most importantly for me to respect each other and adjust the existing environment. If you want to gamble better hidden or not gambling in public places and gambling online is better than gambling in real or general. Do it wisely and still respect each other because it is more noble Wink
People consider gambler as bad people because of their bad image in society, In fact there are a lot of cases which shows that gambler not only ruin their life but also their family life. In fact gambling is not bad but for most of the time the way we play gambling is not good. For most of the time we do not have any limit for playing gambling, we continue playing gambling for everything we have.
