Topic: Have You At Any Point In Time Blame Who Taught Or Led You To Gambling? - page 4. (Read 1056 times)

Definitely,at some point in time,I have blamed my friend who showed me how to gamble,and think about how I started when I've lost so much money and cannot go back  or cannot quit any more.Gambling is not something someone should even try atall.There are some that are good to play,and I don't blame myself for gambling on those ones,while there are some that that sucks you and drains energy out of you,due to the way they are demanding,and due to the way they frustrate people's effort.However,now I am used to the fact that losing is part of winning because it is losing that gives you the experience that catapults you to the next level someother times that you may try.

Yeah, it will depend on each person because there may be people who will blame other people for introducing them to gambling so that they are now gambling. But actually, if they realize it, they have the strength not to gamble, especially after they get to know that gambling can cause them to lose a lot of money. They also realize that they don't have good self-control, so their chances of losing a lot of money will be wide open, and they don't want that to happen. We can decide to gamble or not to gamble not because someone introduced gambling to us. But that is something we have to decide based on what we experience.

We are the same, my friend and I are like this. Why would you blame the person who introduced you to gambling, you have your own mind if you want to play it or not. It's up to the person how they handle it, how they play it. It is not the fault of the person who introduced you to gambling because he did not force you to gamble.

Yeah.. People get destroyed by what they expected. They know what gambling is, but they don't realize gambling is a game of chance, and the odds are always in favor of the house. This means that over time, gamblers are more likely to lose money than win it. it's baffling me to see many people continue to gamble because they have unrealistic expectations about what gambling is and how it works. it's baffling me more to see a few people keep on betting when they actually have make up for their previous losses.

Some people believe that they can outsmart the casino and beat the odds. and I have met other people who believe that they are simply unlucky and that their luck will eventually change. Still others believe that gambling is a way to get rich quickly and easily. These unrealistic expectations can lead to serious problems, such as gambling addiction, financial hardship, and relationship problems. If you are struggling with gambling, it is important to seek help from a qualified professional.

The expectations those people have out of gambling are so out of line that it does not surprise me they end up experiencing huge problems to leave it behind and blame others for their mistakes, and I say this because anyone expecting to win their bets all the time has no idea how gambling works, since not even casinos which have the odds on their favor can guarantee they will win all the time, as there have been many cases in which casinos have lost a lot of money as well.

It is right to blame the person who introduced you to this mess and even right to be mad at the person too but blame yourself the more, maybe it will help you to make a change. This is why it's good to be careful of the companies we keep, and you should know that bad company corrupts good manners, and since what your friend introduced you to is not positive but negative in your life, then that friend is not a good one, at least in this context. Your life would have been better without this and the money you lost would have been prevented.

Even at that, you need to work on letting go of anything that is not good for you, and the more you grow and not stop it, the more you should rather be mad at yourself and not the person who introduced you to it because it shows you are weak in the mind. Even the person who introduced you to it could have stopped doing it entirely or not allowed himself to be pushed by it and thereby not lose money foolishly like you who let it control you in the name of fun. If it's fun you pursue, do it with the amount that is little and that does not have any bad impact on your life, it's fine, but when it has turned to wasting big money over and over again like your school fees, then it's worrisome. Still, blame yourself more and not your friend because he is not the one who actually forced you to senselessly use the money meant for other purposes for gambling even if he introduced you to the game.

More often than not we get to see people with various blame-game lifestyle  wanting to transfer responsibility on someone else when they fully consented to gambling without any form of coercion. It is considered a childhood approach to living from my perspective.

Gamblers should be fully aware of the fact that gambling is 80% luck and 20% skills, no matter how skillful you are, it is not enough guarantee that you must win or constantly enjoy winning else the gambling world wouldn't even exist.

Don't blame no one when you loose in gambling and if you feel like that after your loss then it might be an indication that you are not yet supposed to be in the gambling space.

Theirs is one place I went to in my areas they place is called okehi, so I went there to play gambles then and I told someone who is standing beside me to teach me how to predict game in soccer for our betting centre, he responded to me that I should check the board by myself and predict it by myself, that nobody teaches people how to gamble because when it turn to the negative side of of it that we will blame him if the game cut, that I use my experience and learn through how other people are writing the code in a paper, so after the man left I asked another person and the response was as same as the first person that responded to me, so I decided to learn by myself without asking anyone how they write down the odd for Home and Away predict, so even though someone teach me and it goes wrong I will not blame the person because its what I'm desperate to know.

I take full responsibility for my decision to gamble. Nobody else is to blame for leading me into it. We always have the power to choose whether or not to gamble, and it was my decision to place a bet. When we gamble, we must understand and accept the potential risks involved. Unless your friend has promised to refund your money if you lose if not they are not responsible for any of your gambling losses.

It could surprise you but there are many people like that, they are the kind of people that cannot deal with things not going their way, and since gambling is a hobby in which we will lose the majority of the time those people do not want to admit that maybe they should have chosen a different hobby, but then they question themselves about how to deal with the fact that they cannot control the results they get from gambling and the perfect self-image they have about themselves? And they do this by blaming someone else, that is how.

I agree, that's definitely an important thing not to blame those people. I sort of started smoking just exactly as you mentioned, I had a friend who smokes all the time, and I didn't smoke at the time, and I was very young, like 17-18 when I started, and he was smoking and I was in a very terrible situation, life sometimes throws a terrible news at you, like death of a loved one, and I picked up a smoke from him to smoke in order to maybe relax, that was my mistake, not his, he didn't do anything, it was my own request and that was the mistake that lead to me smoking all my life. That is not something I can blame him to, and that was a bigger deal than what you think you could do.

I still smoke to this day and I do not blame him for it, he didn't do anything wrong, he didn't offered me or pressured me to smoke neither, if that was the case then maybe he would be to blame, but it was me and I picked one up, didn't even ask if I could take one, just took one, and smoking ever since.

Fortunately, no one induced me to start gambling, this was a form of entertainment that I ended up discovering on my own because of cryptocurrencies, so I can never blame anyone for entering this world.

However, I also have nothing to complain about... there was a time when I was "losing myself" in my addiction, but before it consumed me I managed to master the situation and today I play responsibly, betting only a small percentage of that that I earn exclusively from subscription campaigns.

I confess that it's not enough to have full fun, but I consider it to be a safe margin that prevents me from becoming addicted to the games.

I don't blame anyone because I gambled because of my own desires, because I saw and judged that it seemed fun.
And the first time I played it, it turned out to be fun and that's what made me keep gambling. However, I already know in advance the consequences of being involved in gambling, so I limit my gambling activities and when playing I only use sufficient capital.
And to this day the person who taught me to gamble is still on good terms with me and meets often, and when I often accept defeat I never blame him and in fact that is the topic of conversation when we meet. And I also consider gambling to be just entertainment in my spare time after being busy working and so on, I am even grateful to my friend who taught me to gamble, because it has become a new entertainment that I still do to this day, although rarely.

No, I never blamed people who thought or led me to gambling.  First, that person never forced me to play.  Second, it was my decision to continue gambling despite the fact that I am losing.  Third, it would be childish to blame someone for our own doing.  Lastly, be a man and take responsibility for our actions.  No one forced us to gamble or continue our gambling activity why blame it on someone who happened to influence us to partake in gambling many years ago?

at some point, you will also thank yourself for experiencing those kind of thrills, and fun and entertainment. life is too short not to enjoy little things in life. if you are in gambling not because you are aiming for stable income, i guess, you will appreciate more about this game. but if you got addicted and would have a lot of financial troubles, i believe, that's when you will blame whoever brought you to this part of your life.
but if you are just enjoying the games from time to time, or bet your favourite sports and be happy about it, then, there's no reason for you to blame anyone. because this is your life, and you have your total control of your life.

No, but I did think a lot back then about what if I hadn't learned how to gamble or if I was never exposed to gambling, I wondered what life would be like. blaming the people who exposed me to gambling never really came to my mind, gambling at a young age brings a lot of good memories for me, bingo and card games are pretty popular in my country and it is what me and relatives usually play if there is an occasion and a lot of relatives are in one place. though gambling is dangerous, gambling is not always bad, a lot of families bond over it and create good memories around gambling.

Those who understand that argument will not blame anyone for their actions, though people have different points of view and we can't avoid smeone who loves blaming games, when making mistakes instead of accepting it and moving forward they will find someone to blame and most of the time, they are pointing fingers to people who show them how to play the game.

Bad habit that we can't deny that exist, gambler who's blaming someone about their gambling participation is just using it as a scape goat, just don't wanna be blamed for how they became after gaming.

I don't really put a blame on anyone because even though they taught me how to gamble, I still had the chance to decide if I will continue or I will drop it and definitely not continue with it but then I enjoyed the fun I got from it and since then I have continued knowing what it entails.

I was first introduced to gambling by  a friend and after, he first taught me offline but I taught my self how to do it online when the demand for convinience became important. I had to learn for my self to do it online without having to visit the casino often to be able to place bets, so recently my profit and loss is something I will not associate with the person who taught me.

Friends can actually lead one into doing some things that they may not want to do, but those friends don't force you to do what you don't want to do. There's a saying that "you can take a hose to the river, but you can't force it to drink." Friends can convince you to do what you may not want to, but the decision is absolutely left for you to decide if you want to do that particular thing or not, and even if you don't want to, your friends will not force you at gunpoint. If you gamble once and you don't like it because you lost, then it's still your decision to quit. If I am regretting anything, I regret the fact that I did that thing. I don't blame anyone but myself.

It would be foolish of us to blame someone from whom we have learned something. Education given by our school teachers or college teachers, the same education has been well received by some and the same education has not been well received by anyone. The one who received education well will praise the teacher but the one who says that education is well received will not slander that teacher at all because the teacher sees everyone equally and the teacher taught everyone equally. Some had interest and some had no interest. I learned about gambling from him but he didn't come and force me to learn gambling but he taught me because we showed interest and he definitely deserves thanks. As you said after I learned he can't force me to gamble I won't gamble if I want to. I don't think those who do understand this will ever blame the person from whom they first learned about gambling.
