I guess that blew her patience for not telling his winning, so he threaten that he should stop gambling or they part ways, my friend choose his wife so he cannot play until he can convince his wife and promise her to tell her if he won big. Cheesy

How about you have you been threatened by your wife, your girlfriend, or your parents, if so tell us your story.

all my life, only my parents could threaten me to stop gambling even though in the end I returned to gambling after previously making promises to my parents

Over time, I have become more and more convinced that it is we ourselves who can change and direct our lives, as long as we can control our gambling habits then why should we stop gambling!!

This actually happens if there is a similar thread I'll lock this thread.

My friend invited me for a round of drinks just last night to confess something, and that is his wife threatened to leave their house and file for legal separation because the wife just discovered that he's spending a lot of time gambling, she thought that he's just playing games but she discovered his logged because the idiot has his password in the browser, so the wife check his withdrawal and voila his losing a lot of money and she also discovered that he won big money in the past but didn't tell her.

If you have to hide things from your spouse, you probably married the wrong woman or man IMO. If you want to go gamble now and then you shouldn't have to hide it. Losing a large amount once or twice and trying to hide it to avoid the argument is another thing though. You probably need to go talk with a professional about your gambling habit if you cannot control yourself.

Probably that could be a reason too as some partners in life have set their negative mindset on gambling and things that will trigger it will only worsen the situation. That’s why being transparent to each other is always essential. Especially in gambling wherein that could totally lose your right mindset and thinking if you become addicted in gambling. However, threatening your partner is not the best solution. Resolve the problem by talking about it first before you jump into another heavy decision in life.

Dont put up yourself into a situation on which you would really be losing your wife or breaking your entire marriage just because you didnt make yourself transparent or having that being honest with your partner because we know that trust is really the main foundation if we do speak about strong and long lasting relationship then it would really be the main ingredients on achieving so but if one of the other side will really be that secretive then it would really be starting out that kind of problem which might really be sparking soon or on the time that it would be busted up.

Well, this isnt really just talking about men but also to women or wives too on which there are things which really might be kept out from his husband or whatsover.
We know that once secrets been revealed and the other side is really that being blind for too long, then whats next? We do know that there would really be already that trust
issues on which it isnt really something that cant be forgotten. If its been that resolved out but that trust isnt 100% anymore. Trust me, ive been there.

Its common that every people have an inner fear when his/her close one is addicted to gambling or he had turned bad gambling beyond his ability. At such situation the gambler should realise his mistakes and try to be responsible supporting the family. This is where gambling is stated as the reason for the people(close ones) to take such decisions.

Proper awareness and the guidance seems to be the right way to make these kind of people understand the consequences of gambling. Rehabilitation centres play big role and governments need to fund it good to make changes among addicted people's lives.

Seeing someone close spiraling down the rabbit hole of gambling addiction is as distressing as watching your favorite team lose the finals. The sense of powerlessness can be overwhelming.

Encouraging them to own up to their predicament is akin to persuading a cat to take a bath. It's hard, but not impossible. However, merely recognizing the problem is like owning a Ferrari with no gas. It won't get you anywhere.

Rehabilitation centers are indeed significant, and government funding can turbocharge their efforts. Yet, it's critical not to ignore the role of personal responsibility and the influence of supportive circles. Because sometimes, even the best lifeboats need a helping hand to pull someone aboard, right?

You don't even have to force or trick many people to stop gambling. I think everyone considers quitting or voluntarily quitting gambling at one time or another. But how long will that last? Often not for a very long time of course. We always get a moment when the weather starts to tickle and just then that's the moment when things go gamble again. So a gambler will start gambling again in 99% of the gambler population sooner or later.

How can you be forced to stop gambling? I think it's just the opposite and people want you to keep gambling. A player sooner or later always goes into the gambling ship with the result that you run out of your bank balance. Things like that are only a matter of time, that's a proven fact for many years. But of course casino does not like it when they are dealing with a player who wins a lot of money, in that case they could give some kind of indorect stop ban by lowering the limits so that it is no longer interesting for a player to play. gamble. You can still see that happening.

It's important to talk about this things especially if you're partner thinks the opposite way and seeing gambling as a way to only waste resources rather than using it in a more useful things, this scenario is quite common since then. So it is really important to make sure that they understand the things you do, it doesn't really matter if you're losing or winning, it's all about being transparent with each other as surely you don't want to be in their shoes. After all, if the needs are being met every single day and week, then I'm inclined that they will understand it rather than make you avoid such things.

In worst case scenario they will do that so that a gambler will stop because he was threatened but it will only be applicable if he value that person who threaten him or he is afraid because of that. But the thing is we don't need to get to this point because we are too focus and addicted to gambling, we should have a normal life and don't think gambling too much.

Yes but with a different issue and not gambling. Well, this is a bit complicated especially if you're too attached but if threatened I think the best thing in this situation is to assess first then decide after. After all it's just a talk between you two and wok things out, yeah you could not tell about your winnings or loss but if you can still provide to the family, what's the problem with that?

-snip-

There are many cases, like you said, where the husband ignores the threats that come to him and only plays gambling because gambling cannot be separated from him. And after some time, the family was threatened with separation and finally, it really happened while the husband and wife often fought. Their children became a broken home. And their children, because they often see their parents fight, eventually become unstable and often make trouble outside the home. That is why a gambler must really pay attention so that he does not become addicted to gambling so that it does not cause serious problems for his family.

Because the biggest bad impact of a gambling addict is the family after that, then the social environment in which he lives.
Yes, it's a shame that there are so many broken families that really can't be repaired just because of the impact of a husband who became a gambling addict, especially as you said that a child affected by a broken home becomes out of control and often causes trouble outside home just to be able to vent what he felt on his family.
The head of the household should be able to think more clearly and defend his family, but after all, everyone's thoughts and perceptions are different so we can only take lessons and shake our heads when we hear of cases like this.

I just look at the events around me because so many families have been torn apart due to uncontrolled gambling. None of this should have happened and if the head of the household doesn't play gambling or leaves before it's too late, they might still have a chance to improve their lives.

These are all valuable lessons for us to learn and avoid so that our families are not adversely affected by gambling, especially if they become addicted. We have to think about our children's future and prepare everything for them even though they will still have to try as we do. At least we have helped them to be able to get a much better life than us.

There are those who can repair and reunite broken families, but there are also some who do not care about their families so they prefer to stick to their goals in gambling.
This actually depends on each individual whether they still have responsibilities as the head of the household or not.

Yes family and a decent life is everyone's wish so we must be able to prioritize family over gambling.
Maybe some people rely on gambling as their source of income to support their family, such as working as a casino team, but this is what they work for, not gambling.

LOL, although it may not control you, but you still lose money when you don't win your bet. Yea, no one has the right to question how we live our life. even the people who keep their gambling habits away from their family are not kids, like you said, but if you care about someone or love the person so much, I bet you might not abstain from gambling, but you might want to keep it a private or secret thing for yourself so that it doesn't have to affect the emotional life of your partner. But someone like myself, anybody around me will get to like what I like, and vice versa, else, we can't vibe so well.

Of course my father always told me to stay away from gambling and he is generally very serious about religion, as gambling is prohibited in every religion, my father always told me to stay away from gambling completely with faith in religion. But I try to stop myself from gambling as my father said.

You should feel lucky to have a father who cares about you and always reminds you to avoid gambling. And I hope you always remember his messages and don't let him down. And I see you want to stop yourself from gambling which is a good move because not many gamblers say that. Maybe they say that but don't want to do it yet. And to stop gambling is not from a threat but from self-awareness that wants to stop and leave gambling.

But then again, I will always choose my wife and family over gambling, like I said sometime before on another thread.

Yes, normally, that's a wise decision to make. When you love your family, you will need to be wise in doing things that, if they find out, will make them feel hot or disappointed. I know it doesn't work for me, though. But well, I still don't dispute the fact that love is supposed to be treated with respect, loyalty, obedience, and many other things.

Just like the guy who won thousands of dollars in gambling but the dad refused to collect the money, possibly the man would have taken the money if he was not told that it came from gambling. Knowing what our family members (children, wife, dad, and mom) don't like, we should respect it.

as we have different principles in life, what we can do is respect one another especially our loved ones. so it is a matter of how you look at your life here. are you willing to follow your desires in gambling or follow what your loved ones are begging you to do?
i've read that story of the man whose dad didn't accept such winnings. if he didn't tell that it came from gambling and just show enough money, not all the winnings, will the man accept such money? i believe, he will. so it is up to you how you will handle yourself when it comes to gambling. so long you can contain yourself and not affecting your personal relationships to the people you are closed to, then do whatever you think is best for you.

I've always had one notion, "No one should make you feel less of yourself or change your own ideology," this is as long as it's not hurting you. I made that revelation because I read a lot about friends and family on the gambling section trying to make people believe in their way or let them think they can only be right following their path and ideology. I beg to disagree in a strong term, everyone should do what makes them happen, but such must be what is noticeably seen as positive to you, not negative.

As for gambling, so long as it doesn't control me and I didn't lose my money, I am good to go. Even with the way I live my life, no family or friend has the right to question me about my private life. Maybe those guys are still kids.

Lol, you're lying.

If gambling is prohibited in your country and your father told you to stay away from gambling completely, you will not join a signature campaign related with gambling which you need to post about gambling due to requirements of the campaign.

You've applied a gambling campaign before, that's contradict what you're currently saying.

It is a bit funny if today I find someone still controlling our life. But, for gambling maybe this is a bit especially if concerning about money, with exceptions if we live with our family (Still concerned with parent and wife). As children, we have to listen to the advice of our parents, and as husbands, we have also concerns about our family. If gambling makes you messy and spends a lot of money, better to try going to a psychologist to treat it.

Family is more important than others, if you want to gamble, use money not from salary. I have a family (children and wife), but for gamble, I use money from the signature campaign, not from my main job salary. If lost, then I must wait a week, this is a good threatened for discipline.

Is your friend working? Because if he is, I don't think it's an issue to be a gambler, as long as he can provide the needs of his family. His mistake is, he's not open to his wife and chose to keep his gambling activity and worse he had the chance to win huge but didn't tell anything. It's important in a relationship that you're open to each other, because you already have a better half so every decision that you'll made (as a sign of respect) your husband/wife must be aware of it.

Fortunately I am not threaten yet by anyone because of gambling. But in the past even I have a history of being a compulsive gambler, i'm the one who decided to stop playing and not because i'm threaten. My family just supported me until I overcome that chapter.

Luckily this friend of the OP still has some awareness because believe it or not there are a handful of people who can do that and indeed they are a bunch of idiots who choose gambling over their closest people but in this case it still really exists even though only a handful of people do do that but cases like this can still happen.
Quitting gambling is not as easy as turning your palm but this can still be done but of course this clearly takes time and support from all parties, especially the closest family.

Yes it is, having that kind of circle will help you get through with it. Right circle will be there for you only if they still have the awareness and they are not addicted to gambling as well even they gamble . It is hard for a friend to understand if he did not know how to gamble or doesn't know the feeling to gamble and have fun with it.We can have always learn to be a right friend to a friend especially if we feel that they are slowly get addicted to it,we can help them as well as professional help needed.

However, to get away from gambling completely is a very difficult thing, so in this case apart from the intention and determination for the gambler who wants to stop, of course there must be support from those closest to him.
Reflecting on this, the choice to be married or to go as a gambler is clearly a very tough choice, it's just that when you take a stand and the wife of a friend from OP wants to help, it can still be done even though it will take time and not all gambling can released at once but it will change for the better.

The environment and the closest people are indeed important so that the addicted gambler can change slowly. Gambling really cannot be stopped immediately, it takes several processes or a reduction in activity for gambling.
don't associate with people who gamble so you don't join in gambling, and vice versa associating with people who don't gamble will help you stop gambling slowly. However, if you are addicted it will be a tough task, because when a day without gambling they are like crazy and stressed.
Gambling should be done properly, treated as entertainment and using a minimal allocation of funds. I just do some gambling for entertainment and spare time only, nothing more than that.
