GOD is TRUE
Well not really I think there is nothing to be a shame of for being a gambler,
It was your choice and it was your money you played maybe you should be shameful if it was not your money.

Alot of people are actually ashamed when people know that they are gambling. Perhaps it is more of social condition where someone live. Depends on your country as well. When it comes to a country that is legal then it is not a problem if you are gambling however if it is not then it might be a problem for you
As long as you are not addicted and gambling is not influencing your life in a negative way there is nothing to worry about.
In some parts of our world there are places where women are told that exposing their hair will shame them, and is is cardinal sin.
So yeah, don't let others manipulate your feelings after all this world is a pretty fucked up place.

no matter if you live in a modern apartment housing or a big city.
all people tend to not socialize in this case, I don't feel there is a bad word from my neighbor, if there is, I wouldn't care about their lives, it is important to me to keep going forward, and also what I did was not a crime.

DONATION SENPAI PLEASE <3 <3
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!

     Yes many countries around the world consider gambling a sin or a bad thing. Other people even discriminate you for gambling but gambling is not a sin its a short way of entertainment like playing games. You should not be ashamed of playing gambling that's because gambling is just a game that costs you money and people should not care about what other people do. Like any other games gambling can also be addictive so be careful and control on gambling but for me I'm not ashamed in gambling I don't hide the fact that I gamble, I even invite my mom sometimes to come with me in casino. Its just short of entertainment and just trying your luck if you win you win, and if you lose you lose. Just set amount on how much you gonna spend so you won't over spend.  Wink

I'm still not reaching the point where I'm being shameful as a gambler. I gamble just for fun and excitement and hoping that this is my lucky day. But I think one day if immgoing to be shameful on myself in gambling, it will be when I forgot the important things in my life and gambling is my number one priority and sacrifice all of the things that I've founded just to have something to bet. There's nothing more shameful for me when I lose my love ones just because of gambling.
It would really be a shameful thing where comes to a point on which theres nothing left on you specially your loved ones and for me i wont really let this thing would happen to me and same as yours i dont feel shameful as of now becuase i dont compromise anything that is important and i would really maintain on this way.
i think op talking about how the culture difference makes each person have different way to treat gambling , some people don't give a shit no matter what people doing include gamble and there's no shame at all , gambling have been something legal and nothing wrong , when some people in some places can't show their real activity as a gambler due various reasons like people around are so religious and yeah prohibit gambling then you would be feel shameful.
Gambling is not wrong, but in some countries there religious will not entertain this gambling. So that kind of people do hidden gambling, and they don't like to show this habit with others, If any close people know that they are playing gambling they feel bad about this. I also not share this information with my family members. But I will share with friends is I won my bet.
It all depends on how you look at gambling, how you treat gambling, and where you live and how religious you are in the faith. If you do not think gambling is wrong, maybe you would not be ashamed of being a gambler. But you can also feel embarrassed if become more miserable because of gambling. You can also embarrassed even if you include people who are successful if you stay where gambling is illegal, if your religion forbids gambling. You also can not be embarrassed if you do not care.

gambling should be a diversion when you are stressed and fed up. it should not be a vice. i believe nothing to be ashamed of if its only for fun and unwinding.

One quick advice, dont play when you are stress or such. When you lose, the aftereffect will be much harder. Although it might have no direct impact to the result however we do know that we might lose ( well it is just a precautions anyway ). Another thing that you need to understand is that, there are no people that gamble purely for fun

I don't feel shame at all for gambling, i think people that feel shame for gambling ar ones that are addicted to gambling, as everyone that aren't addicted to gambling never feel shame because they understand that gambling is nothing more than avtivity, which lets you earn some money. I don't think that gambling is different from playing games or reading books, so i don't feel shame while gambling.
I don't think that everyone that feels ashamed for gambling has a problem, sometimes it's just social pressure that makes you feel ashamed of gambling.
If people in your environment don't approve of gambling, you're going to be ashamed if you do it, it's as simple as that imo.

Sometimes it is, but i think that people that are afraid of this pressure don't tell anybody that they like gambling or are addicted to it.  But you are right, usually people think that gambling is terrible thing and that gamblers are bad people, it is because many people lost everything thanks to gambling, so that what makes people to feel ashamed because they gamble.

I am also not ashamed. I am not a slave of the game. I only play to have fun and never lose and don't win a lot of money.
That case is with every person who gamble for fun. If you will not be addicted and will gamble only for fun. And will care for your family and will fulfill their needs then you do not need to be shameful in your community.

No, definitely not. People that are shameful of being a gambling are those who are addicted to it and I'm not one of them. Those people only feel that after losing everything. Their money, house, car, and even their family. But there's a few people that I know that are addicted to gambling that are not shameful with it because they made gambling their everyday life and I pity them.

I think they also feel that shameful feeling while betting. They are aware that their actions are not approved by their loved ones and when they found out that all of their money was just gone from gambling, he's going to be ashamed of it. Simply thinking about that idea gives him the same amount of stress and the same shameful feeling. But since he's in the casino, he can feel all that shameful feeling but other people would understand since they feel it too. In a way, that makes the gamblers feel comfortable since they are surrounded by people feeling the same way.

A shared feeling of shamefulness makes it less disturbing and easier to bear.

I know that feeling and it's better if you are going to fight with that feeling because it will totally lead you to shame.

It's a shame if the money you use to gamble came from your hard work, you will really feel sorry and shameful about it.

Of course every of our bankroll that will be use come from our hard work, thats so obvious. You should be ashamed when you actually use fund that was stolen from someone else. I dont think anyone would risk the stolen money to gamble, one thing for sure you are stealing because you need money for something else and it is not to gamble

No,i'm not ashamed to them because i interested to this kind of investment,I think it is not bad if just not abuse it.It just a fun and passion to some other who is willing gain more profit.If i have a chance to become succeed and lucky to this,then i will proud of being a gambler.

Me too I'm not ashamed of being a gambler but being a gambling investor is far for being a real gambler.

They are totally different but whatever it takes I'm not going to feel ashamed about it.

I know what I'm doing and I'm already grown up.

I just feel ashamed when I say that I lost X amount of money. I feel ashamed for myself not really because of what others will say about it. Maybe this is coupled with regret when you suddenly realize what that money could have done for you than losing it in gambling. Well, that's part of gambling really. You lose and you win.

I know that feeling and it's better if you are going to fight with that feeling because it will totally lead you to shame.

It's a shame if the money you use to gamble came from your hard work, you will really feel sorry and shameful about it.

I guess, sometimes embarrassing if I say that I am a gambler, but I also feel that gamblers have a higher income than a person who works in an office. well, so I guess I was so embarrassed, or can be, I do not feel anything, because I consider that gambling also is work.

It's sometimes embarrassing if you are losing while being witnessed by a lot of live audience, I just hate that feeling and it will make me feel ashamed if that will happen to me again. And when it comes to "income" it shouldn't be said as income instead winnings is the right term for it as gambling isn't a real job.

Well, mostly i see all gambling's owner they do good job, and earn from gambling very well. But about the gamblers, i really don't see too much that they are earning very well from gambling. May be that reason, being a gambler we feel embarrassing but being a owner we feel proud from gambling.   

It's a pleasure to be a gambling site owner and if your site is earning too good on a daily basis there's nothing that you should be ashamed of. But if you're an owner and you don't know how to run a business and instead of earning you are like those gamblers that doesn't know how the system works, then you should be ashamed of yourself.

In a way yes, because it is great to earn big amount of money if you own a gambling site, but, there is still a reason why we should be ashamed of being a gambler, no matter what excuses we are going to make, or ask to others opinion, and I know that most of the gamblers will say that there is nothing to be ashamed of, but the truth is there is. Gambling is a sin, and we all know that, we are just ignoring this fact and convincing ourselves that it is not since we are earning good amount of money in gambling.

And I think that is something that we should be ashamed of. According to the Holy Bible, gambling is a Sin which we must not do, but since most of the people love money, and want to earn money in an easy way, that is why they are still continuing on gambling, so, I think it depends on a person if he is going to be ashamed by gambling, or I'd rather say that he is ashamed of himself but he is just hiding it, and still act that he is not.

Putting up a shame and declaring that gambling is a sin, there's no argument about it and we do have our very own opinion for this matter. Since you had mentioned the Holy Bible, no gambling is a sin but the effects of gambling will make you commit sin and that is by loving money which is the root of all evil.

That's too much of a bad result, it's like you are losing your life in that matter. Well, I do not have a car and a house yet and only my job is my treasure now, so if I lose this because of my gambling addiction, I also loss my family which I cannot even imagine. I would not say I'm proud to be a gambler but I'm happy doing it with my skills to control myself.
