The very first time that i learn gambling is when i was young,we use to play some younger style of gambling and we are with a group so theres nothing to do with loneliness actually its a habitual and group enjoyment that even if someones got to win still he will share the winnings by buying foods and we will eat together..until when i get matured and goes to gambling places with my cousins and friends and even my wife when we were still dating,we use to go in casino to play some slots and roulette,so probably thats not the reason on becoming gambling addict
It depends on why you came to gambling you did gambling only for the purpose of enjoyment but there are lot of peoples are there playing just for making money in that case they become addict to gambling when the are not satisfied with their life and getting lonely being ended up with playing continuously.
I don't think we can limit the purpose of gambling in only that two things, for example your case that you are not a lonely person or a dissatisfied person. many people who have fun goals end up addicted because they have the habit of playing here

It all depends on the mindset that is owned by each person. when they think gambling is a fun thing of course they will think that gambling is a safe thing and has no addiction. so try to change your mindset. suppose the gambling game is an entertainment and that way we will feel comfortable and calm in doing every gambling game.
There is also the sense of competition that gambling gives to the player. They see themselves competing with their fellow gamblers and the casinos always make it a point to project them in front so that they feel the competition.

When this gets on their system they will not stop unless they "beat" the rest of the gamblers often leading to drastic changes in luck and huge losses. However they will not stop due to this and in the ecstasy end up depositing more money only to chase the winning bets. How much "fun" this actually provides is still debatable but its what is common.


Yes I think gambling addiction will definitely be came out for when we are in the loneliness and there are some kind of new ideas will came out on our mind and get into different ways so gambling will not be a right way when you are in the separate situation which will definitely be giving out you only last for most of the time so don't get addicted to kamling very easily.

Yeah, indeed. Especially those who are weaboos. They love gambling because they cannot interact with other people.

weaboo loves travelling and interact with people because they are fanboys and fan girls  but they are still humans which they can also play gambling  . they can be addicted even if they arent loney or saftisfied with thier life's  .

fun can also lead to addiction . one example is playing a video game .  when we enjoy and get hooked in the game , we tend to spend too much time with it and we cannot do other important things anymore  but yeah it is depend on the mindset of each person  .  if you can  control yourself then you cant be addicted no matter how fun an activity is  .

"What does weeaboo mean?

Weeaboo is a mostly derogatory slang term for a Western person who is obsessed with Japanese culture, especially anime, often regarding it as superior to all other cultures."

Not good to use it dude.


Again, there's a lot of factors and its going to isolated which one is really the culprit for this gambling addiction. Everything should be in moderation, but if you think you're addicted already, you need to seek some help outside.

By seeing myself I can say that addiction is strongly correlated with Loneliness or sadness. I can see myself gambling when I don't have something to do or I am at home watching sports and betting on matches. Also, I have felt that I gamble when I am sad and I want to make an achievement for me even if this is winning a bet and getting some money (even if this sounds funny!).

Another example was that I was gambling a lot when I faced a relationship break up. It made me not thinking about other things and kept me busy.
Until you realized that you want to continue gambling everyday and that makes you more addict on that. We should know how to fight loneliness in the right way, because gambling is not a good choice and maybe you will be more stress if you keep on playing wig big money. I feel sad sometimes and I just play dota, after that back to my normal life.

It depends on the person and their different stimuli through their lifetime. I don't see being addicted to gambling. Like you did that you play video games, I do gamble. Everyone has his own way to recover his mind back to normal.

What did you mean about weaboss? As far as I know, the boss who has large money in every business doesn't want to play gambling. But if they want to play gambling, they will not go to the casino and spend the money in that place because they will gamble to something else Cheesy
They spend their money searching another opportunity to make more money, they will call some girls to make some party or they will go to the private island and spent their time without thinking about the business.
You can google the meaning but Ive done that for you. It means that someone who loves anime and japanese culture. And I think Im that type of person before who doesnt interact with others and was an anime lover.

But we have different cases, not everyone is gambling due to loneliness and dissatisfaction. A higher percentage gambles because of possible return that they might get.

People use gambling till date satisfied with that it is because of their don't getting profit from gambling this will leads to the more addiction from gambling it affects their profits and their mental stress also so don't do gambling addiction for you.

So, you are gambling out of loneliness or sadness, but you never become addicted, right? I'm glad for you, and I think it is possible to achieve for others too. That's what gambling should be for, at least for some people, to get rid of loneliness and sadness in your life. I think winning is not necessary in such situations because what matters most is the game itself. Imo it's much better to lose $10 in gambling than to buy a bottle of vodka with it and drink it down out of loneliness.
it turns out there are many reasons people gamble, not just to make money, or to have fun. but to fight loneliness. yeah it's someone's variation in the purpose of gambling. but it will certainly be better if you are looking for friends rather than falling into addiction dude

Having good friends is not something which is easy to achieve. Some people think that they have good friends, but that doesn't mean they really have them. Actually, it's a tough philosophical question, what is better, to live in a happy illusion or to live unhappily constantly questioning everything? I'm not trying to say that there is no real friendship in the world, but we have to admit that there are people who can't find it however hard they try. And some of those people need gambling to relax from the stressful life, at least for the time being, until they find real friendship or real love or whatever that can make them happy. Such people don't become addicted to gambling because they do it for a reason other than making money.

I am a regular bettor either it is on sports, events and some casino games and poker. But that doesn't mean that I am going break my budgeted money them. Once I lost all the amounts intended for them then I quit and try again soon if I have the time and extra money. I also tend to get satisfied on my winnings even though sometimes it is just some small amounts.

So am I still a gambling addict? I enjoyed it and have fun following my favorite sports and events. It allows me to analyse better if the odds are worth a risk.

Personally, I am a person that seems cool when alone or at home. That doesn't mean I am sad because I also hangout with my friends too.

Can we just say that we are enjoying life? Without offending other people. Grin
It looks like you were addicted after reading the bolded words,but addiction is not a bad thing if you can survive it and can lead your life in healthy way then it is okay to do but thing again if that money is needed for any important thing other than gambling when betting next time.

Many things can drag someone to the gambling world and become an addict. However, the motivation of each person must be different. Loneliness, lack of daily activities, persuasion of friends and so on, can be the first point for someone to enter into the world of gambling.

No. People who want to have some money are the one who spent time in gambling with addiction. We people don't care gambling at all. I sometime play whenever I wish. I also don't play a bigger bet. I have been in gambling for the last 2-3 years. Don't play regularly but I never felt like addicted.
Don't generalize the 'we' that we really don't care at all. Some just don't talk on what really they are in gambling.

They are focused with what's on them in gambling, they just love to gamble but they aren't addicted at all. We just can't think of it that everyone is into gambling because they are addicted, I still believe that some do it for hobby and pastime.

Gambling is something like a company that keeps me forgetting difficulties. I hope all people would see it like that and never get addicted to it because it is hard to recover.
Gambling is an entertainment. Entertainment like you spend ours after ours watching youTube. It's an entertainment like watching a one and half hour movie without break. It's in our nature that we don't want to get bore in our life. When people don't have much things to keep themselves busy then they get into bed habits like smoking and gambling.
Gambling should treated this way, its really fun to play the games you love but since people are too greedy with money they push themselves to play more until they forget their purpose. Always have fun in gambling but control yourself not to become addict or else you will be a loser.
