I feel shameful because it is gambling it is illegal but it makes me happy sometimes if i am on the winning side and i feel sad sometime if i am on the losing side. That is why gambling is not safe so i feel shameful.

It is your choice to gamble, so if you win or lose you should accept your fate. Do not feel sad when you lose, it is part of gambling. There is nothing to be ashamed of if you are gambling for fun. If it illegal, however, don't do it. You might get in trouble for doing it. Or if it is really illegal in your place, do it discreetly. Don't tell everybody you are gambling.

i think we just have to have a definition of what's shameful for us. For me, what's shameful is if what i'm doing is affecting my loved ones are people around me in a negative way. For example, if i borrow money to spend on non important things, i would consider that to be embarassing. If what you're doing is affecting other's make sure that it's in a positive way. Like for gambling, if i win i would treat my friends a drink or two. If my gambling has a negative effect on others, like if i always end up borrowing money, or i lie about my gambling, then that is what i can consider as something shameful

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!

No, I don't feel ashamed of being involved in gambling. I do not need to hide it to my friends, to my family or to anyone who knows me because I know for myself that I do not gamble to commit a crime. As long as I do not use gambling as a way to gain an upper hand to other people I would never hide or feel ashamed about it. I consider card games as gambling but we know, me and the people whom I play with, that this game was just a refreshment for all of us and there is nothing wrong or bad about it.

I am shameful because I am gambler when I want to go out with new girl to tell her that I am gambler because some girls dont like boys which gamble becausw they things only negative about gamblers.

Not all girls really are like that, and the thing is, if you are courting someone and you really like that girl, will you tell her that you are a gambling addict? No, that will really break your heart.
You dont need to tell a girl that you are a gambler, tell her when you know that she loves you so much and trust you so much. My girlfriend dont really mind me gambling, though when she knows that it is being a bad activity to me, I do follow her advises.

Well leta face it, at some places, gambling is placed in such a negative light that yeah people would look differrntly on youbif they know you're a gambler. But i don't think there's any reason to be ashamed here in your case. If you're a respobsible gambler then explain to her that gambling is not that bad if you nuat handle it correctly. If she really doesn't want a gambler, then make a choice, stop gambling or look for a different girl that can accept the things that you like

If you are into dating, why not stop first your gambling habit? You can't do at the same time, you love a girl, then hate gambling, or if you can't then find a girl who loves gambling, there girls who are like that I think. But I am assuring you, if you find a girl who loves a guy who gamble, they love money too, so better have a lot of money if you want a girl who loves a guy who gamble.

You have to know what is more important to you, probably it's the girl that you loved and in that case you have to sacrifice gambling to have the girl. In time once you have the girl you can go back in gambling and explain to here that entertainment you get from it, you have your life as well and that does not stick with your girl only, as long as it will not affect the relationship, there's no problem with that.

I have not really thought of it has shame has I have not done anything wrong or owe somebody some cash , so there is no reason for me to be shameful about gambling or being a punter.

Society doenst try to make you feel shameful?

Society is another factor, when you live in a place that's full of people that has a very bad way of thinking with gambling. That can affect you, your family and friends because we know that when a crowd shouts 'shame to you, gambler' that will make you feel that you don't belong to them and that's force shame.

If that is how they see it, then in the first place you would not be influence and will learn gambling. I don't know if there are really a community that hates gambling because for me it is just s pure game and entertainment. People can play if they want and they are not force to spend their hard earn money.

If you are living in a religious place or you are part of religious family then they hate gambling. Admit it or not there are places are like this and they are making fun for those people who are into gambling. Instead of helping those type of people, they are putting them down with their ego's and that's making them more shameful to gamble.

Maybe gambling is considered a sin that is why they have that reaction every time they caught someone gambling, if I live with that pace, maybe I would have not known gambling in the first place. Fortunately, I live in a country where we have democracy, we are free to do whatever we want and gambling is just considered as an entertainment and the government has no negative actions as long as they have their fair share.

I agree but I don't think anywhere in the world government is the one who has problem with gambling , mostly the reason for this is they can collect huge amount of tax and fees from them.
The main problem is the society they don't like gamblers because they think it's illegal , bad etc but they don't have any sort of problem from the owners of the casinos as they know they are money man and they can use them whenever they want for monry. That's the sad part this is how are world like this nowadays.

There is no doubt the gambling industry moves a lot of money that is why some cities legalize gambling so they can reinvigorate their local economies and most of the time it works, or look at bitcoin and see the gambling industry we have, which grows every year and new improved casinos appear every month.

No way , I can't be ashamed of what I profit from, it's always been a great experience gambling either the fun part or when I do win and make some profits. The bookies are hard to beat so I always jubilate over my wins against them. The more I win the more my friends revere me so the opposite is really the case with me.

Well that's rrally goos for you and bt how you described it, i don't think you're stepping on anyone when you gamble so you're right. If this is the case i don't think there's anything to be ashamed of. Hope you keep to what you're doing bro and good luck

In my girlfriend its a yes because my girlfriend hates me gambling. So everytime i play gambling we have lovers quarrel and sometimes he throw my phone. But my phone is strong eventhough it is android .

Because she dont want you to be addicted or wants you to do important things than being a gambler. in our love ones being a gambler is shameful because its not a good hobby but for others who dont know us i think they didnt mind as long as you are not stealing money to someone to sustain what you do.

That's normal... If your girlfriend is a straight forward, then expect more of that if you lover and she loves you... You are lucky, your girlfriend still cares for you... Others would just leave their boyfriend if they see that the guy is not good and has a gambling habit...

But anyway, If your family, girlfriend, friends, look at your gambling habit as wrong, then I think it would really be shameful to still do it even if it makes you feel happy... You'll really have to choose between gambling and them...

I dont understand why somebody feels shameful if it is gambler when gambler is person who have more money that he needs and he can trow it to wind to risk to get more money and other person with less money cant affort this.

if you live in a religious place you might will know how the feeling.
i personally live in a kind place like that , and showing yourself as a regular gambler is just a big blunder.
people around you have a very bad perspective about gambling and you just did it, then what do you think will happened later?

Of course i don't feel shameful for gambling because it is not a profession, it is just a source of having some fun for me and while having fun if i can earn some money then what is bad in that? Actually no one even knows that i gamble because i do it online and except me no one is aware about what i do online, so obviously no.

I grew up in a community that gambling is a norm. Almost everyone is gambling from small children to very old people. So there is no shame in gambling. In our community, the better you are at it, the more popular you are.

Well, if that's how you could earn in your community, then you should not be shameful about gambling since everyone else is doing the same. It just don't look normal when you went to other place. But I am sure, it looks like when you gamble in your community, it means business.

As long as everyone is doing fine after they gamble, then I think nothing is wrong with it.

Let others know!

I don't have any gambling issues or stories but base on my observation, Gambling is a bad thing to do. It can cause addiction, indebtedness, and etc. Maybe shameful because you know that it's not a good thing.

well gambling may cause addiction yes but i don't think a person can't determine what he knows is right or wrong. a person knows for himself if what he is doing is having a negative effect on himself, his family and other people around him and if that person decides to ignore these things and continue gambling even with the consequences becoming obvious, i think that's when it becomes shameful

i think it is not shameful to become addicted but it is really shameful to lose everything in gambling. as we can see that most of the people who lose money in gambling is because of become addicted and having no control on their emotions but if a person lose everything and even their children school's fee then it is really shameful.

To be addicted, that's something to be taken care of. Maybe you are defining addict as always playing, but being addicted means that you bet everythjng and still finding a way to get money in order to gamble still. That's addiction and you should consult a doctor or psychiatrist.

yeah if you can no longer control yourself and from time being you always finding ways just to play gamble without any reason or no longer thinking if you have some edge its already coming to a big problem called addiction you better need some help from your love ones and focus to some other sort of things that you can use your time to be busy.

I do agree with your statement, you cant control yourself if you are being addicted in gambling and you really find ways to play gambling without any reason. For that circumstances that happened, I think that’s shameful as gambler just for letting yourself get addicted and thinking only for your own goodness. In order to overcome that shame, you should avoid that all situations mentioned to happen so that you will not be ashamed even though you gamble; anyway gambling is for fun and not for addiction.

i am sure that in your area, playing gambling is a normal activities but i don't think that in other area which is other country, gambling is normal activities too because every country or city have the different views about gambling so people is not thinking the same about gambling. but i have see in my city that people which is doing gambling is not being shameful and they don't hiding their activities from other people because they said to me that they don't hurt any other and they only do what they want.
