Topic: Have You At Any Point In Time Blame Who Taught Or Led You To Gambling? - page 9. (Read 1051 times)

That's not "in a fun way" if you have feelings for the following

• Guilt
• Regret
• Hate

That's not "entertainment" or "fun" in any aspect. You are just tricking yourself into making yourself feel that it's okay. Since you know that you are somewhat attracted to it, I think that's the start of acceptance and you really need to push as much as possible that you can overcome that urge to gamble in the color game.

It is common for young minds to blame someone for their failure or problems. That is why gambling is not for children but for adults. The gambling age in my country is 18+ and at this age, everyone is responsible for his or her actions. I have blamed a relative for introducing me to a habit that affected my health but at a point, I discovered that he didn't force me to continue which entails that I chose my path. I was introduced to gambling by a co-worker but I have never blamed him for my losses because I enjoy gambling. Gambling gives me a level of entertainment that I don't get from any other games. If you blame someone for your losses, will you also thank or praise him when you win? Maturity is one you take full responsibility for the outcome of your life.

In my case, it happened indirectly. in our society, there are habits that seem to have become culture at that time. If there is a wedding event, local people will come together to help run the wedding the next day. While waiting for morning, the adults who stayed up late will do a kind of mini casino. however, in group play. If anyone is in my country, they will definitely understand things like this. In short, there will be many groups divided into gambling, there are those who play rummy, dominoes, capsah, which are basically dominated by card games. There are those who bet using real money, there are also those who just have fun without risking anything.
The point is, without being taught or on purpose, I understood for myself what they were doing. and in the end, I got to know gambling.

Well, it's different from soccer betting and all that. of course, someone will teach or give tips. over time, gambling became familiar to me. If we talk about losing and winning, both traditional gambling, land-based casinos and online casinos, I think it's a common problem. if only, if I pulled back or repeated the past. and I wasn't interested at first, maybe I wouldn't have known about gambling until now and that doesn't rule out the possibility. but in fact, we are already involved so far.  So what else should we look for besides fun. if I want money, then work. If I want to have fun by spending just a few dollars, that's fine. most importantly, consistency and responsibility.

This is familiar to me because I do the same thing during fiesta. I know we are on the same country because of similarites of events. If we are on the same country, there is no way for us to be innocent in gambling. 😅 As we are influenced by foreigners during old days. I cannot blame myself on that because I am having fun as well. When I was a kid I was so lucky to bring home some of my winnings from the "perya".

Nobody deserves to be blame for anyone going into gambling. I know that we cannot downplay the role of peer pressure here but then we should be pressured into doing something that we are not comfortable with doing because we want to fit in. On so many occasions, I have turned down invitations to join friends to the casino because at that point in time I knew that I should be gambling. Maturity demands that we hold ourselves accountable for our actions. On the other hand we only blame when there is a loss. I don't think we praise or commend those who led us to gambling if any whenever we are having a winning streak.

Nobody introduced me to gambling, it was a trend, and I decided to follow it. I was blessed with a huge winning when I Started gambling and I see that as a welcoming winning, since then I have not had any major wins like that again but I will not blame myself for getting into gambling because I have deployed a strategy that guides me not to be addicted to it.

The only person or people that we have to blame when it comes to gambling habits or gambling losses is OURSELVES.  I have never blamed anyone before because I pretty much taught myself how to play all the different games I play as well as how to bet on sports, which is what I gamble on most.  So no, I could never see myself putting the blame on anyone other than myself.

No, because I started gambling voluntarily and I have never gambled addicted to it except for my addiction which didn't have a serious impact on me when I first started. Since my gambling addiction only occurred while I was a high school student and I didn't have much money during the periods I mentioned, I didn't lose any serious money. For this reason, I didn't experience any regret or feeling of blaming anyone during the time I was addicted to gambling. Nowadays, I don't have any regrets or any hatred, resentment or similar feelings towards anyone for getting me used to gambling because I gamble only for fun. I think this will continue in the coming years because I haven't had a gambling addiction for a very long time and I don't think I will based on my current playing pattern.

It's wrong to blame others for your own actions/mistakes... nobody forced you to gamble, and for sure you didn't think about it while you were playing and having fun. We have all made mistakes during our lives, some less and some more, that's for sure... but we certainly shouldn't blame others for our own mistakes.

I like to gamble, and I don't regret losing money on gambling and spending time on gambling... money/time is always spent on something, one way or another. Maybe I could have used them for something better, but that's not so important, I do what I like and I know that every hobby costs.

I never blame anyone for playing gambling because this is of their own accord while the environment is familiar with this so it would be natural if they tried to play at first but after playing once or up to three times then it was addictive but not the invitation of a friend but the sensation of gambling is always hot when the money runs out always wants to deposit again.

So don't blame anyone, when you are contemplating maybe yourself is to blame because at the beginning you only try and then become addicted, but when you are still in control why blame because it is not hot money that is used to make extra money but I don't know about others, this is just myself with it.

So when there is a bigger loss then I myself am responsible.

Blaming people on out losses in gambling shows that we don't accept our fault and we will end up not learning on how to manage out losses. I learnt gambling from a friend but he hasn't for once told me to go and gamble or to keep chasing my losses. These are things that we do on our own will and not that we were compelled to do it.

What if it happens that the person that you are blaming for your losses because he introduced you to gambling have quit from gambling, will you also quit on that reason. This is why we are to be blamed on every actions that we carry out in gambling because, we have the right and choice to gamble or not. Some people run at loss due to greed, who will you blame for your greedy nature.

Well, first of all, no one introduced me to gambling—friends or family—nah, its just me who likes to explore new things and can eventually learn to do gambling. Well, even if someone introduced gambling to me, they are not to blame. Because it's up to you if you will follow them or adapt to what they do. You have your own thinking and life, so I guess you should know what to think for yourself. Let's say yes, they are wrong for pushing other people they know into something that they should know is risky and dangerous, but what will be the result of their persuasion, whether good or bad, for the person they persuade? It's not their fault as the one who does destiny and happenings in our lives is ourselves also, so yeah, no one would be blamed, not even the one who introduced gambling to us. Maybe they were just wrong in some point, but it's not entirely their fault if anything happens to us.

This is interesting, and I think it all really depends on whether you gamble because of the encouragement of your friends or you want it yourself because you are tempted when you see them gambling and winning, if indeed you come because of the encouragement of some of your friends who promote gambling to you by not telling everything especially about what risks will befall you later then I think it's natural to blame them in the end, But I wouldn't completely say that's right because of course you should also have thought from the beginning if there is a chance to win then you should also be suspicious about what impact will be able to befall you, I think the defeat suffered by gamblers is quite common, and with that means you also at least already know that gambling is not always about winning but there is a risk of losing which in fact can be greater.

So the point is you also can't completely blame them because you should also consciously at least have to find out for yourself about what impact you will later receive, logically, if there is something profitable, it means that there will also be risks behind it.

I first learned gambling when I was a teen, just watching at first and ask elders how to play, but before I don't know what it would lead me up until today but NO I didn't blame anyone for learning gambling because it gave me wins and losses, let us not blame anyone because we lose sometimes, because we don't thank anyone when we win. It's a one direction of pure self-decision we had to make back then, it's to learn or not. It's not something that we can regret of, because part of growing up is learning things, learning stuff that we might or might not use of and gambling is one of things that we can use to entertain ourselves, not just by means of gambling money, earning and losing stuff.

I first played slots because there was work related to it. However, there was no obligation for me to play, but at that time I visit a gambling sites and started playing slots for the first time, just to learn the mechanics, sensations and so on that were related to my job, but in the end I was addicted. Even so, I never thought it was the job that trapped me. Because when I made the first deposit, it was my own will, even if someone told me to playing slots, the decision was up to me. This means that there is no one else to blame for our addiction or just to gambling.

Yep winning a huge amount will totally change the whole story. Maybe consider this friend a hero or something like that.

I can't remember who taught me how to gamble when we were just in grade school there are so many faces I can remember their names still as I can see my friends in my hometown still.  The only two gambler friends I have are brothers, one has a reputation for robbing the nearby chicken farm but we are friends. I can't remember to blame them every time I lose since after the game we play we always use the money to buy burgers for ourselves.

Maybe I could have, but I get into gambling myself, no one to blame if anything happen but myself, the possible blaming part is why I find it difficult to teach anyone about gambling and even investment sometimes, most people can't handle risks as I can.

It's easier to point finger when things go wrong, but if things work out fine you won't hear any complains, most gamblers are the same, they keep quiet when they are winning and when the losses in gambling is getting too much that's when you will hear their voices.

Gambling is not something you should be referring someone to, especially if they are close to you, because it will just make you look bad in the end, only very limited amount of people won't put blame on you if they lose money.

I have never for any day regretted being a gambler or even knows how to gamble, besides I just developed interest without much putting pressure on someone to tutor me about things related to gamble. Even though I am not a regular gambler yet I don't make any regrets because I don't bet always, it's only those who are addicted gambler may only regret.

I learn gambling by myself when I first start crypto due to dice sites here easy to access. So in my case there’s nothing to blame but me. In case someone teach me gambling then I will still not blame him because I accept it and play by myself. We shouldn’t blame someone for teaching us to gamble because we have a choice decline or ignore it if we are not interested yet we still do this.

I believe this blaming game will be different if you win a jackpot on gambling. Gambling is a game of chance, You will never know when you will hit big that’s why we should just play using extra money so that we will not be heavily affected by losses while waiting for the lucky hit.

My friend is also the reason why I gamble now, because he invited me to gamble and taught me how to gamble. Because I only play computer games and I'm addicted to it but when my friend introduced me to gambling I became interested in it too and that's why I lost a lot, wasted a lot of money but never once did I blame my friend because it was my fault too. Yes gambling is fun and it's very addictive but it's up to you how you play it.
