I think a couple gamblers are more vulnerable to addiction. Why? Because none of them reminded to stop. If the gambler couple is addicted then it is very dangerous. But if both can control themselves and not addicted, it would be more fun.
Yeah couple are prone to being addicted specially if both of them are having fun when they gamble. I've seen a lot of couple who got addicted with poker both enjoying the game and also their other vices.

I don't mind going to the casino with someone for a drink and a few games of whatever, but I really hate it when I'm ready to go home, but the other person needs a few more hours of play because they're chasing their losses or believe that their luck will come soon.
Having some few drinks will make your gambling experience better. I just want someone to gamble with me that gives me positive vibes. I don't want if there's a relative that wants to hang out and gamble with me. I don't want to be blamed by our other relatives if something wrong happens to his money. This is the family that I'm with, if you did something wrong they'll keep on blaming you.
I don't think its weird although I am not in favor of gambling but if that's what they want like a family member or even close friend of mine is addicted to gambling of course I will advice them to not really get into that kind of hobby. I do have a friend who was close to being addicted to gambling but he decided not to go through that phase because he realized he lost a lot from gambling and have to save a lot of money for his family of 5.
Nothing wrong with that kind situation , unless if you live at the environment where noone gamble and consider it as a very bad thing.Gamble together along with your family member , brothers, sisters and friends at some places is a common thing.
There is a reason why mostly consider gambling as a bad habit , and that because most of the times gambling always ends so bad no matter what.
Right. And between family members, you don't really lose anything. Whoever wins would likely share their winnings with all other participants. And if they're into serious gambling, they can share strategies and look after each other so its actually good.

As long as you can keep both things distinctive from each other and give the required time to your family and friends and to gambling the time you have calculate for it should bring you no problems. Problems start to happen when you don't know how to distinguish anymore what is more important for you and when you become gambling addicted and gambling is a god to you. That is when problems start.
Relationship doesn't have lot to do with gambling. One thing given importance being into gambling is making self decision. At times users go with the decision of friends or people surrounding them. This when ends in loss, tolerance level decreases. For this reason it's good to go with own decision and get the best.

My ex boyfriend and his friends will always have this friday session in playing poker. His friends used to bring their gf and my ex also was bringing me with him alrhough i dont play poker at all. Some of my ex bf friends gf play with them. I think there is nothing wrong with it. Because they can relate with each other. On the other hand since i dont know how to play poker i got bored in waiting. I even slept while waiting..
My girlfriend (of nearly 10 years) & I both gamble & it doesn’t affect us negatively in any way. We both gamble on football (soccer). She likes horse racing too.
You both are gambling and don’t lose? It is really strange. I am just astonished why it is not affecting you negatively. There is not a single person that is not affected badly with this. Some are affected physically, financially or psychologically. But it definitely affect you as it is harmful. I call it as parasite that resides in you and harm you while showing of such beautiful offers. It is happy being in a relationship, especially when you both know that you really love each other but I guess if your relationship will destroy of gambling then that is already not good sign for both of you. If both of you and your gf/bf are both gamblers then I think that is just fine but also limit yourselves so you don't lose much money that you can't afford to lose. If you can both avoid gambling then much better for both of you.
That is bad for the relationship, never allow gambling to control your because once you fall in love with gambling you'll never gonna have time with others anymore. Blame your weakness when you destroyed your relationship because it's not really because of gambling but because of your lack of discipline.

Well, the example that you have right there is a very weird relationship but this by every means is possible. I have a neighbor where both of them (couple with 3 kids) are gamblers and they are in a very unusual situation. They know that both of them are gamblers but they see to it that they are always in a different location when they gamble. They said that it is bad luck. Every now and then, they appear to be very normal but rumors go around in our community that both of them are in huge debt and the ones that are being affected by it are their children.
i have not heard or seen any women gambling they sometimes do support there love because he might feel she is his good luck otherwise there hasn't been many people in a relationship who are both gamblers if thats the case i cant imagine what their children might be
Women are actually more smarter than men and they know the real benefits of money unlike men, They will not gamble away money that could be used to do something very important no matte how small it is. It's a bit weird though when your relatives or friends is giving you a piece of advice about gambling. I mean, i guess it is weird though when you were both on to gambling and during in a gambling you both enjoyed the game. Playing gambling is more fun to be specially with your friends or relatives as long as both of you doesn't get addicted to gambling because this is a very hard to adjust for both of you.
Gambling shouldn't be mixed with relationships especially family relationships because when things don't go well with you i bet there wuill be family problems especially monitory aspects and you are liable to be called irresponsible.

It's difficult for me to find a friend at gambling environment.
This is a place where money matters so expect it that finding a true friend in this environment is like finding a grain of rice in the corn field.So finding my soulmate become the most rare chance that I'm ever meet.
Why would you find your soulmate in a gambling place, they can even be found on dating sites.
I think it's because of online gambling become difficult to meet face to face and the story will be different if you're doing live gambling.
Not really like that, people on gambling sites are focused on making money not only to chitchat and look for a real love.
All the ladies found in gambling houses are just there for money or prostitution and so they can easily qualify as hustlers and so if you want to find love i don't think any of those ladies are decent enough to be married to.
Not totally "all" the ladies on gambling houses are for money and prostitution. Other ladies are just looking for some entertainment and they think that gambling is the answer for that crave of satisfaction. As for the people that are looking for relationships in those places, you'll having difficulties of finding one.
I think it's hassle if you are going to play gambling with someone. Sometimes it is uncomfortable especially when you are playing and thinking of him that was unfocused for me. And this seems destroyed my game and leading into losses. Sometimes it's better to be alone.
