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.

It's the reason why I never do it. I've done it once with a friend and observed him go from a great mood to like hate towards anyone that tried to advise him. He won some money and then lost it all and we were telling him to leave it as it is and go home with a clean sheet, but he thought that after a losing streak there has to come another winning streak. It never came and we went home without him. Never again.

I have experience this many times as a land based casino player. I already made a few decent win and sometimes my friends doesn't want to leave before they are trying to recover what they have lost so I become bored that I'm forced to play again and lost my winnings. I hate that feeling. Just this weekends, I have to wait again, but this time since I already won, I went home instead. I don't want to wait a little longer because I know I can't control myself which may resulted in another not good experienced. Good thing I did that. Wake up very happy with money on my wallet.

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.
I think it has its advantage and disadvantage. However, it both are too into gambling, there will be a time that the relationship will suffer because of money problems. Unless one of  them is really rich and can afford to gambling along with his wife or husband. Personally, its bad if both are massive gamblers. What will turn out to their children? Gamblers also? Its gonna be weird and a lot of issues a long the way resulting in a divorce or separation.

one thing I can really understand in gambling is that if we are in a scope where most people think gambling is a very bad place then it is certain that if you do, the main thing you will feel is the unhealthy words heard. In addition it is certain you will be ostracized by everyone or be a joke material. Gambling is beneficial, but if we do not understand gambling properly then it is definitely a loss we will always get.

Yes it is same as the fact that when you are successful in your life anyone from your relatives o friends would feel proud to stand by your side but tears and losses are to be handled alone. Gambling is luck based game and so one should put some limits for himself before deciding for the amount to be bet because if you lose, the loss is quite bearable and be able to be compensated via other earning methods most probably a job or business.

My best friend is a gambling addict unfortunately , and he's the one who introduced me at 1st to gambling through websties . We enjoy talking about football and arguing what will happen in certain games all the time and some sort of competition was set between us for who's bet will win . I eventually stopped or kinda kept a slow rhythm of gambling , but he did gamble every day all the day and is actually ruined and got kicked out of his house for unpaid  rents . He stood in my flat for a while then went back to live with his parents in order to cut some of his expenses . I'm looking forward of him giving up gambling because it really ruined his life .
Yeah. Gambling really affect every relationship if its already out of control or seems sound like gambling addiction. Because one thing that makes relationship stronger is when you have time between each other, so if time comes that you often lose time to your partner because you already addicted to gambling then what happens next is that you already making gap to each other  and continually making this situation happen will makes  your partner seek attention to others. That is why many relationship broke because you have no more time for each other.

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.

I think to those who have already family or friends like that they are already immune in that situation maybe in first they are so uncomfortable about it but since it is become their amily or friends routine it is already common for them.

You are right, It's too hard to find a soulmate in gambling games, I mean in online gambling games, but when you do gambling in real casinos, so then you can make friends and meet new people and discuss there and maybe you make a good relationship.

I prefer to gamble alone, that is my time and I don't like to be distracted while I gambling. Doing that with friends or in couple is not so interesting for me, I tried and its just fun for a short time. I can spend hours in gambling, playing poker or dices or slots, roulette is also good, and the best for me is to be alone in that, I have free time and wife doesn't bother me for that, I'm home I don't get out and come back late, I spent what I earn here and that doesn't inflict my house budget.
You can harmonise life, relationship with gambling, its not hard you just need a bit of control.
Everyone has their own likes or dislikes, I like to gamble with other people, I can gamble alone but I find that everything is always more fun if you have good company, it is similar to playing video games, playing a video game alone is fun but when you are playing against a friend things get a lot more fun.

My brother used to gamble a lot and it made him frustrated whenever he lost large amounts of money . I tried to talk him out each time but it kept getting worse until my father once had a very long talk with him and made him understand that he makes good money out of his job and he doesn't even need to gamble and that whatever enjoyment he seeks through gambling can be reachable via other budget-emotional-friendly activities and he did indeed quit gambling .

It really sucks when you and your partner are addicted to gambling,you might end up loosing a large chunk of money and end up in debt,i do not want any partner who is into gambling,but gambling once in a while is fun but not the other way round.
That's true it is hard that you and your partner are both addicted in gambling we can lose double of our bet because you are both playing and still depend on your bet and you both don't know when to win both of you.

Anyone who has ever been or are in a committed relationship or marriage where both people gamble?
This wouldn't be the perfect match for people to be married because this I would consider as a high risk marriage but what can i say love conquers all.

What does that look like for you? Your experience needs to be heard.
I have only made friends from gambling, nothing more!

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.
 
 
Yes exactly addiction to gambling is very much dangerous, not only for the couple themselves but for their off springs. They may not concentrate on the education and training of their kids. Addicted parents are always a problem for the children. If parents are addicted to gambling or to drugs or anything else due to which the parents don't give a proper time and don't work upon a proper kids schedule, their kids are the one who suffers the most from it. There are many examples of such parents in the society whose kids are gone to a darkened future just because of the addicted parents.

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.

Agree with you mate, no one can tell their bad habbits, addiction in gambling is no good to one family specially if the couple are regular gambler they will lost their assets in the future because gambling is not profitable and not good method to earn income it is just for fun by some rich people whose having huge money for capital to sustain their enjoyment.

Me and my partner gamble but moderation we only gamble for fun and we really try not to get hook with gambling. In our relationship I am the one who easily get tempted with gambling and sometimes lose big money.
