I have personally have had my best friends leave me when my gambling habits have gotten to be excessive and have gone too far.
I have skipped work to go to the local land based casino and spent an entire paycheck in just one day.
It can ruin your relation with your wife, sister, brother, mother, father and children.
At this stage the person who is so enthralled in this addictive behavior should seek counseling before it totally engulfs your life and hurt the people that you care for most.
Cause after you are left with no one and not one cent to your name!
It is extremely difficult to come back from that.

Tbh yes! Gambling can alienate us from our relatives and our close friends if we do gambling beyond the reasonable limits. Don't let us get into a situation like that, because of course it will be very painful.

Maybe if the person already come to the situation that he will always longing for gambling and make priorities over than his love one's then I believe that its a sign of unhealthy situation and negativity that leads to relationship destruction, because we, as a human being needs time from the people we love and love us, therefore if we lost that ability of giving time to the person of whom we love then there is a big possibility that in the end the relationship will ruin.

I don't think you will get a gambling partner as a wife ,because they won't like to gamble the entire earning money in gambling. Because they won't have money to spend for their make up.Lol
It will happen to the big shot only.If they are millionaire or billionaire, they will get this chance. Grin

There are many couples in Thailand goes to gambling night on Saturday night. I do not think it is big problem between the couples who invest on gambling all the time.
There are billinares in the world who made their life with the gambling alone.
If you able to keep on invest on gambling, it is the right platform buddy.

Yes in some places there may be the customs for the couple to visit a casino and play gambling there together. In my country it is even not consider a good activity to visit a market by the girls, they cannot think about to visit a casino, Only men use to visit a casino and play gambling there. May be few girls are there who like to play gambling online.

Yes cultural differences can prohibit a couple from visiting a casino together but must we go together at all in the first place? I don't think it has any significant impact on the games we play if we go to a casino with a family but many have sought to superstitiously explain that and i disagree.

You can't gamble freely when you go with your family it becomes hard for you to concentrate if i ever go to a casino i would go without my family
But there is also a advantage your family might tell you to stop and make you think about your future and you might not get a high loss like you would normally get

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.

Will in reality i never experienced in my life that both my wife and i go into casino for gambling together, because my wife is a religious person.actually i inherit this kind of behavior to my parents especially my father who been always gambling a poker and cockfighting.actualy during my childhood my father always bring me in cockfight arena and casino to gambling a poker cards and slot machine thats why when i grow up i know how to play this kind of games and for me being a father and son together in gambling is so weid,thats why when im also become a father i quits in gambling ,to become a good example of my children.

My father is heavy gambler. Not in a casino but in cockpit and card in some group of friends who bet big amount. It is very hard to have a gambler in the family especially if its your father because finances is uncertain. Our financial status is unstable and my parents always fight because of it. Its really hard.

Well my father is also a gambler, but I don't consider him a addicted one. But I'm sure that I inherited it from it. On the contrary, I didn't experience what you have gone through. Yes, we struggle financially but it not because of my father's gambling habits.

So I can say that it really depends, my mother is not a gambler, and I'm sure that she didn't condone my father's gambling habit but it didn't destroy their relationship. Maybe they understand what their priorities was at that time and my father just gamble (horse racing), just to have some fun and he knows his limit that why my mother is OK with that, I guess.

For me its very unappropriate to see a woman in a casino but I looking in the bright side seeing a woman at the back of her man is kinda sweet.A man having a partner like that is really nice, if she is just there to support him but not to play also.

In our country it is very unnecessary to see a woman gambling in casino, because man is the one who always went there.I know some people who are heavy gambler not in casino but in cockpit. They always have entry in every derby near in their place, but even they are like that their wife are still supporting them. Its part of their business because when they won the bigger the chance they become popular in the field of cockpit.Through that they can sold a lot of rooster for cockpit.

I think bringing girl in casino and expecting from her that she will stay beside her boy or husband to watch him or cheer him would be an insane thing because girls also have the same mind and heart. However, they are not much clever to think about the consequences of anything. They just stick to it without knowing a single thing about it and that girl would also do the same thing which is to adopt gambling.

The one thing that becomes the worst thing if we have a relationship with gamblers, when both are addicted, none of them will help. If we have a relationship with gamblers, we should not gamble too often, gamble at least once a week so that when gambling, there is a pleasant impression that is very pleasurable, if too often will also feel normal.

I don't think if someone in a relationship stays out of gambling it can help the other one who are addicted to it. On the contrary, a gambler can hear an advice only from another gambler because they speak the same language, so to say. I enjoy playing online poker together with my wife, and when she says to stop, I normally stop, because I know she's not a stranger to the game. But I agree with you on the "once a week " approach because the less we gamble the better and, yeah, gambling should be treated more like a holiday rather than like a routine.

Well this is natural. Like we are, if someone from some other family is advising us to do this and that, it feels so bad to us because why he is allowed to advise me? Why he is thinking bad about me that I am dull and inferior them him that he is telling me how to do things? Definitely not. Same is the case with gamblers. They never listen other people because they think this might low their self-esteem.

For me gambling will affect relation especially when we are about to lose often. Our relationship to our family will affect because we might have no time for them just seeking for capital again to gamble.

I guess this kind fo stuff depends on the culture of a country. In mine, it is not a big deal seeing female in a casino. My experience in visitinga casino, I found more women playing than men. It is so because my country allowed people to play in a casino as long as he is 18 years old at least. Even if some country does not encourage females to visit a casino, I think it is cool to have your family playing along side with you in a casino.

Making relationship with a gambler is not a bad thing in my opinion as far as my knowledge is concerned. I wouldn’t talk about all the people because every person has his own nature and point of view as well so nothing can be done with that; it’s natural. Picking the habits of gambler like gambling is a bad thing because if one person is committing suicide, you should stop him rather than to commit suicide too.

I think it's a bad relationship. how will it be if you will fight your partner in gambling? then if you lose and all the money runs out is not that a big problem?

Gambling and relationships can create an impact, either it will good or bad which only depends the way we handle the possible situation. Different friends in gambling can create bonding as what many says "Tell me your friends and I will tell you who you are" definitely that's true but somehow it will depends on the lifestyles you want. Gambling in your family also can create relationships but it also depends on the situation as long as it will be good for many with no money is involved like, playing pair of cards and the one will lose will do house chores. Gambling doesn't mean always money involved but it can create bonding which depends the way you use it.

May be in some places it is possible to visit a casino with your family or your family may know about your gambling activity, but in my area i do not think that one can even think about that, we always play gambling without knowing any of our family member, because they will never allow us to continue our gambling activity, even we do not like our neighbors to know about our gambling, therefore i think in current time online gambling is the best option for them to play, where they can continue playing gambling anonymously.

Well if you and your partner are both into gambling, then i don't think there's going to be any problem with going to casinos together. Who cares what your neighbors think and say. Though once you decide to start a family, both should mature and responsible enough to know that their hobby should take a backseat.

Agree! As long as you both enjoy what you are doing then there is no problem with that and you don’t borrow money just to sustain your gambling habit.

If you are still on this case then it isnt really a problem but playing too much gambling could really lead up into this kind of plausible problem since we know on the chances on losing simultaneously on gambling.Even how much money you do have if you do lose on constant basis then you will really end up on borrowing money and i am really sure with that because i have relatives that do become like that. Hes rich but after a long time on playing gambling,thing do turn upside down.

This signifies that you are already into an addiction where you are already making foolish decisions because of it.You might say it on earlier stage but if you do really continue this behavior then expect the unexpected consequences if you let yourself fall into it.If you dont like for your loved ones to hate you then better to play alone and dont let them know that you are playing gambling just be sure that you are just spending on the amounts that you can afford to lose.
