Now, this would be something of a thread where users can give tips as to how we play online/offline without our family knowing it. Curious how you do it.

My wife suspected me for almost a year already when I was watching a UFC channel on youtube where they suggest who to bet. Of course, I said No when she asked if I was betting. From then on I just hold my phone whenever she is not around. It's a long argument when your wife suggests buying this or that on amazon yet you gambling your funds. lol

This dude is lowkey living like a bachelor even though he has a wife already. Your money or any of your properties is your wife's also, so I don't really get it why you should keep it a secret with her. The problem always arises in this kind of thing, everything you do, you should tell your wife because that's how marriage life works or you don't know how to act like a real husband, maybe.

Playing gambling will most likely about losses, and once you suffer from a great loss, it's gonna be a big problem for you and for you wife as well. So think about it, be sensitive and responsible enough to tell your wife about it and you guys should talk about it

I don't understand that either. In my opinion, if a person hides something from his closest people, it means that he understands that when they find out about his actions, they will be disappointed in him. Gambling is not something illegal or immoral which is why I think it is perfectly normal to tell your wife about it.

Personally, I prefer complete trust in the family. It is unacceptable to me if my wife does something without my knowledge. That's why I also hold this position.

You are absolutely right. We should out ourself in the other's shoes and think from that perspective.
What if her wife does the same. Will he accept it and let it go ? Wouldn't he want that her wife should have told him the truth.
Most probably we wouldn't like that so the same goes for us and telling her about it would be the best thing to do in this case.

My suggestion is, if you really don't want to have problem in the future about your hobby of playing gambling then you should share your story and share your thoughts with your wife, you and her has already a connection if she really understands you she will help you in some things and will help you to moderate your gaming as well for you not to get addicted not unless you have done some before that make you fall into debt without her knowing that thing, but being honest to her will not be a problem, you should be more nervous if you still didn't tell her that thing.

If the OP is not joking and it has already come to the point that he is playing with the money that should be spent on goods from Amazon, then of course the whole situation has already gone too far and I would call it a pronounced addiction. The problem is that he does not try to fix the cause of the problem (gambling addiction), but only asks for advice on how to hide its consequences.

Its better not to find a way amd bring yourself the confidence needed to tell what you're actually doing instead of faking anything. Obviously with online it's easy to hide as long as you don't go bankrupt but hiding something will actually gives us a guilty feeling or atleast to me.

That is a though question, one side I understand your desire for gambling and think that in any relationship people need to have some personal time to take care of themselves. On the other side is the big issue of lying to your spouse over such a long time. A few white lies don't hurt anybody, but lying about gambling for more than a year is a big deal and can ruin your relationship. I have been in a similar situation where I was trying to hide my gambling activity from my sister, we are pretty close and she uses my tabled and PC regularly. The first thing I did to change the name and the icons of all the poker Apps I use. Now the only like some random games I like to play and she would never open them and don't thinks about them twice. On my phone I use a separate browser for only gambling and sports betting. Important is also to turn of the keyboard memory function so it won't autocomplete in all the betting words.

^ That is good advice from you.
This causes trouble in the future when your wife knows everything in the future, more worst if your relationship with your wife will ruin and becomes separate from each other. I rather tell her to know my hobbit and it could be she will understand and help you to drag you out when you are addicted to gambling. We should tell our family, relatives and even friends about our hobby so that there someone will tell us if they will find out not a good outcome on it.

Like you rightly state, 'your wife'. Well, I suggest you both be 99% open to each other. If you do it secretly, perhaps, with a different hidden phone, or hiding the app, the truth is, nothing is hidden under the Sun, she could find out and think you're cheating on her, etc, so to save yourself from too many explanations you can find a way to work on her emotions, then get her to your side. I hate to use this word 'subtly blackmail her with the amazon stuff' (but it is what it is), and then get her to your side, but your can't tell her always how much you bet.

Final advice, please 🙏, bet with wisdom (be cautious when betting). Remember, you've got a family to cater for with the funds.

Cheers man.

Excellent comment! And probably the best advice, in marriage both should be open to each other, hiding things just leads to other problems, by default, the longer you hide something bigger problem you can expect in the future. Even more important is advice about responsible gambling, many of us have families to take care of, and spending too much will cause big/huge problems!

I have some friends who hide "things" from their wives, and sooner or later everything comes to light. But before that, there are many argues and fights, it's like that with suspicious minds! So be open with your closest ones, and don't create yourself a problem with gambling with money you can't afford to lose!

I do not have the right answers and suggestions for your questions, because I have never done that without the knowledge of those closest to me.
I personally think, communication and trust are very important in a relationship. once you make a mistake then you will be given the wrong stamp in the eyes of your wife.
as well as activities related to hobbies, especially gambling. in a long time, I no longer visit land-based casinos.
However, I still do online casino gambling activities and even then only play soccer gambling, not with other types of gambling. my wife knows what my hobby is, we trust each other, because I will not do anything excessive.

i personally think that having a personal phone for the gambling purpose lol. it must be using pennies to bet. i meant if you are using big amounts of money to do that and your wife knew about that and that will be a disaster. that's why saying it with your wife might become the best thing for now. if you can be a honest person and im sure she will give a positive feedback about that as long as you have not surpassed your limit

I support the idea of carrying your wife along in gambling, it will give you peace of mind to bet and not hiding around and bet nonsense. There might be disadvantages of carrying your wife along, example your wife will make you not to stake a high amount of money. When you go for high stake, she will remind you of an uncompleted project in the house Grin

The presence of your wife will be your regulator which I believe is fine.

I don't have a problem with my wife, whatever i play or watch, she doesn't care. I also have a special room where only me I can go inside. but, some time ago when still living with my parents, where he likes to grumble when I play on my laptop. I went to the garden and coffee shop sometimes all day until I'm satisfied.

I have a solution for you, give your wife hope if you win a bet, you will gift something to make him happy.

What you say is right, but we can't expect win all the time. What to do when we end up with loss. Women won't easily accept loss and for that reason they will be happy when gifted out of the money won. At some point they'll say what we do is wrong and what we earn is enough to survive. I too don't have any problem with my wife, and if I loss while we're in need of money she used to feel alot. For this reason I manage to say I haven't bet anything and hold the money borrowing from friends and give to her to make her happy.

I laughed so hard after reading this because you are simply just playing with fire. You should, first of all, know the kind of woman you married before you do some certain things. If you know she'll not be happy about it, if gets to find out herself, then why do it? I do think if she gets to know by you telling her before she finds out is way better. The only issue is that you shouldn't spell out the truth in full. You know, just make the story you tell her to sound cool and she might even apply her 7th sense in helping you with tips to win.
Also, you could not tell her at all, after all you are the man. Just don't use or lose funds meant for the family for such games, because it is bad luck. Use your own legitimate free cash, and please try not getting addicted, in that your attention becomes divided.

Does it mean that the wife takes issue with her husband when he plays? Continuous avoidance will cause problems in the end.

this is what I think too. continuously hiding it would ultimately be an issue if the wife finds out. she might even think that you are cheating because of all the secrecy.

Quote from: noorman0 on September 03, 2022, 12:21:42 AM

It's good to hear the occasional reason why it's a problem. I guess the wife will let play as long as within the limits of a small loss.

I agree that talking about it would be the best action. if the wife has an issue with it perhaps try speaking with her and find a compromise that would make everyone happy.

It's very simple. I don't hide. But I don't gamble too often or in large amounts. Of course I am not a problem gambler either.

Also, playing poker I usually win money, although I don't play very often nowadays.

It's something I discussed and made clear at the beginning of the relationship, and I haven't had any more problems. I suppose I was the typical problem gambler who says he doesn't bet much and usually wins more than he loses but then the woman notices he's lying, I would have had problems.

This is not my case.

But sometimes, it can trigger a fight between him and his wife because some wives do not like to see their husbands gambling secretly or telling the truth to wives. Maybe many wives will advise their husbands never to gamble again because the situation now is different. If husbands continue to gamble, let alone spend a lot of money, it will be risky for the family finances. Maybe the wife can help if the husband asks her to help him stop his gambling habit and the wife will support him.

This. I wouldn't actually mind the issue of him hiding stuff from his family if the issue stemmed from them stopping him from gambling. Pretty sure OP can be responsible for himself at this point, heck hiding it may even force him to limit his game time and the costs to spend on playing. I'd say arguing about gambling is fine and all, but stopping it completely without respecting that one side wants it can be disrespectful of sorts, especially if the person involved was rather responsible. Now if it's affecting their lives negatively, then that's another thing.

[Nope]No hype delivers more than hope

Does it mean that the wife takes issue with her husband when he plays? Continuous avoidance will cause problems in the end. I don't imagine as long as you play by hiding it won't disturb your seriousness and psychic calm. Especially when one day we suffer a big loss and we can only think about it alone.

It's good to hear the occasional reason why it's a problem. I guess the wife will let play as long as within the limits of a small loss.

It is always good to keep your gambling practice informed with your wife, because we don't know when things will happen wrong. Also, this can limit you into gambling than getting addicted. If something happens worse and prediction go out of control, then it is the wife who can stand with you and console you. If she comes to know about it all of the sudden, it can turn to be a disappointment and the same can lead to big problems.

Does it really matter when your wife sees you watching matches?
This can only happen when you don't watch football and from my concern lady's knows that men are addict of football and they love watching it despite anything it doesn't mean she should gets angry with you while watching football in your house.
Your presentation about what you were doing matters a lot, say you gave the match much attention at this point she won't be comfortable with it seeing that you are gambling and wife dislike and hate that with passion.

When next you can pretend to be sleeping inside room while she's in the seating room watching her favorite series, you could use your phone on a headset without anyone know what you are watching with your phone.
