Gambling at the same table with a close friend may not be a problem for me as long as my friend able to keep the secret regarding my habit. But if I have  to gamble with relatives, this for sure will bring another problem when I came home and I won't allow it to happen.

Well i think there's something wrong there already if you're keeping your gambling a secret. If you're not really that hooked into gambling, i don't see anything wrong with even your relatives knowing your hobby. For me it's pretty much the same if you gamble with your close friends and relatives

It all comes to our lifestyles outside gambling and that is the reason why many feel shameful and don't want close associates to know because they might think they are wasting money on gambling whereas they keep telling their family and the p[eople around them that they do not have money

You reflect the mind voice of most gamblers including myself. Even friends also fall into the category of relationships, we may go believing them for keeping up our secrets whereas other relations are known for creating unnecessary quarrels within our family members. This may sound wired for many other people here as their family system follows different cultures but this is how I am into a family system.

I never want my relations to know my gambling activities hence gambling with them is not at all my way of gambling. Even if any of them get chances to know about my gambling, I may go for making them believe like I am making big money from it or I play only for entertainment for free of cost.

Anyone who has ever been or are in a committed relationship or marriage where both people gamble? Or in a relationship with a gambler with a friend, best friend, family related etc...  Knowing you are in it together is weird comforting and gives me some sort of undefined explanation.

What does that look like for you? Your experience needs to be heard.

You have a good point but there are some instances specially a partners who came from rich family their bonding is gambling with friends to entertain them but the fact that they will be addicted and lost controlling themselves that is not good from they family. Bonding with gambling is not need to make it daily if you and your partner's know how to gamble, it is good if they do that occasionally like my cousin and his husband did they invite their friend they play offline gambling while drinking beer but it is once in a quarter or once every 6 months.

I have no experience in this matter and I think gambling is not related to the relationship and it's only about the games. and if we play the games with our friends, we need to tell them that what we have to get in the end will not disturb our friendship and it's only to have some fun with them. I guess if we can explain to them that we are playing gambling is to get fun in the games and not chase the money, I think they will understand.

Gambling and relationship is very important, just thinking ourselves and not thinking about other people that we love might affect our relationship to them. Look, if you are paying too much attention in gambling, and only spending your little time that you have to your family, you might come to a point where you are completely into gambling, the feelings of your love ones is not important to you anymore because of your addiction.

It must be 80:20, 80% time for you family, and just 20% time for playing gambling.
Relationship is really very important as far as my knowledge is concerned but gambling is also important; this thing for the first time I am hearing from you my friend. No doubt if you would become so mean that you only start thinking about yourself and no one else, definitely your relationship with others will be disturbed whether you are very much close to them or not.
Well,  maybe all of us has different point of view regarding this matter but as for me gambling is not important if compared to relationship because I can leave life at ease without gambling but I cannot really live a life without my love ones. Compromising a relationship is usually the negative impact of a long run gambling, so beware while gambling to avoid such consequences.

I really don't know if you can specifically divide your time like that when you are in gambling. Well, I know that is doable, because I'm doing it, but I don't know if I have that kind of percentage. I just play with every bills every month is settled or if I have save enough for rainy days. But If ever I won, it just a bonus for me.

I have been in worst situation, but I still have my family as my priority and even if I gamble up to this day, our relationship is still solid and the only problem we had before is when I suddenly lost my job. But its all good now and I can still play and gamble and have my family at my side.

You've shared a nice experience here on how to gamble responsibly and congrats on getting a job back! I too think that gambling will not necessarily ruin a relationship. You can even play sometimes together with your spouse making your relationship stronger. But for those who feel that gambling can be a problem for their relationship it's better to restrain from it until they can see how it can make a positive impact.

Thank you mate, yes I was able to get a job back and our relationship has been stronger than ever. We always play together, (well 90% of the time), and we only play money that we can afford to lose. And I would agree that for those who partner doesn't want you to gamble anymore then you really need to stop or control yourself because it can really ruin your relationship and even break marriage. Its your choice.

It hurts. Really we have so many stories of different gamblers who have lost their relationships. Not only with their girlfriends but with the families they were coming off. Their parents had cut out with them just because they were not listening to them and leaving that harmful game. So better is to leave this before your relations start leaving you and keeping you at arm’s distance.
Families are more important than girlfriends and if someone is left alone due to his gambling addiction, he should never put the blame on his close ones because he forced them to take such hard steps. No parents in this world want to kick out their children from their lives but sometimes, there is only one solution. Even if the decision is a bitter one, it has to be made for the safety of others.
Well if the kid needs to learn his lessons then parents needs to be strict and firm with their decisions if that's the only way they know their kid will realize his mistake then they should do it. And when things goes in the right place again parents will always willing to open their doors for their children.

No that is shameful act. You can’t see yourself losing in front of your spouse for so many different reasons. Here I have found a thread where people say they can’t gamble in front of their families because they found that guilty. And that is right. How can you allow your parents and family see you losing in such a bad manner that you are totally nothing at that very time.

If you'll analyze the question, it's not about the games but it's about if you hopped in to a relationship with a partner who's also a gambler.
and if we play the games with our friends, we need to tell them that what we have to get in the end will not disturb our friendship and it's only to have some fun with them.
Friendship over if you cheated on any of them. At this matter there are friendships that are starting to become weird after gambling his/her friend friend's money without any consent.

If you gamble with money that isn't yours and you didn't get any consent its like you stole the money. Why would you cheat your friends, when I gamble with friends, close friends, we never play in some big money, its something like for fun. I get your point, but maybe you exaggerated this situation.
I think op is thinking about gambling and relationship with a woman's, like marriage, or just a girlfriend. That isn't a problem if your gambling is in borders, if you don't spend more time on that then in anything else, on here to be accurate, same us for money, you can't spend more money on gambling then on her and house, than you aren't normal, and girlfriend or wife will leave you. I would advice any woman to leave her husband who spent more money in casino then in house! That person can sell house for gambling, leave that person before its not too late.
But there are many normal gamblers, we have some money and we choose to spent it on gambling, not on other girls, on cars or I don't know what, we like what we do.
I agree that why would you ever use somebody else's money. Even if you're the greatest poker player or the most profitable player in any casino game, you shouldn't use it unless you have a way to pay them back in the first place. Thinking ahead would definitely benefit every one of us and especially who are powerful enough to know their own limits to gambling and even their own selves.
I think this can become a biggest source of stupid where one plays with someone else’s money. How can we become so ignorant and blind to the reality? Why we don’t see the actual game these casinos are playing with us? Why we are so much greedy that no one can understand the right aspect of life and don’t see this blind and dark side of gambling? We have to think about it.

@iv4n that's what OP intends to ask but as the discussion goes on ideas comes out with every single situation that we can think of.
@crwth it's a situation that is happening and not only with gambling but also in other types of activity such as lending, as long as there's money involved even you are in an intimate relationship.

It is odd no? I cant imagine a couple gambling together. May it be husband and wife or girlfriend and boyfriend. I am foreseeing already what will happen if one of them decide something and then lost and the other will blame them at the end. I think it will lead to misunderstanding and fighting.

None of relationships can be broken if you play smart and know the right point to stop. Moreover if you play against humans (who are in the same boat, u risk less to be fooled). Try to play here to feel that gambling can be safe. Just a friendly suggestion.
