I don't know why you're hiding from your wife that you like to gamble. Personally, I think that this kind of secrets negatively affect the trust of spouses. Just imagine what can happen when your wife finds out about your secrets, and you find out about her secrets. I don't think it would do any good. I told my wife about gambling before I married her, so it makes no sense for me to hide from her when I want to gamble. She understands my hobbies perfectly well and tries to stay out of it.

Exactly since if he's just open to whatever activity he participate then for sure that her wife would understand about what he do. If he's unfortunate that her wife doesn't understand about what he do since what she think is his husband is just wasting their money then maybe its good to make her understand the whole situation and make her see that you are just relieving your stress from heavy days of work. For sure everything will be settle on proper discussion so we should not hide any secrets to our wife so that there's no relationship will get destroyed. Sometimes Its hard to admit that we are participating on gambling activities since there are people always have negative impression about it but for sure they will get used to it once they see that you are fine even if you gamble on some occassions.

I do not think that there are only one moment of life that is more enjoyable than the others. Sometimes people enjoy multiple things and you cannot compare between the two. I think the gentle in this statement is lying again that he enjoyed gambling more than being in bed with his wife. I think he enjoyed both the situations and should openly confess it.

Also the wife should not be unhappy if he is happy with activities along with being enjoying in bed. Life is much more than being all the time in the bed  Cheesy
Also if the husband and wife have a good relationship they will know each other habits, likes and dislikes and then husband can watch the Tim Naki's daily blackjack stream not in the toilet but in the living room  Smiley

There is no need to lie to anyone. It’s enough just to find a time and place for privacy so that no one will disturb you and control your gaming expenses. It's actually not difficult. After all, in reality it is difficult to lie. In order to lie you need to have a good memory. Moreover, lies beget other lies. In the end, it resembles a vicious circle that will sooner or later break. We lie only because we do not meet understanding from our loved ones. But if you control your losses, then information about your games is unlikely to interest anyone. Rather, you will look like a quiet crazy person who wastes his time playing online games.
It's better we tells the truth so there will be no misunderstand to us and them. We can talks to them about our gambling activity and no needs to lie because we wants to makes them understand about our gambling activity and we wants them to knows that we can control our gambling activity so far. We can tells them that we always limits our gambling activity and will not breaks our rules because we knows the consequences of lose our controls in gambling. If we can tells them without lied, they will try to understand what we wants and we can asks them to be besides us when we playing gambling so when something is almost change, they can reminds us and helps us to stops our gambling activity. They will see that we have a strong minds and really take care of ourselves in gambling so there are no worry from them to see we playing gambling.

I have a friend who lost a huge amount of money to gambling, and returning home that night, he lied to his wife that he was robbed, when the woman (being suspecious) asked why he was not beaten by the robbers, he got angry at her and almost beat her that night 🤣.

I'm familiar with this kind of stories and lies that husbands adopt to tell their wives when they have used their salary to gamble for luck to double it but they ended up losing all. So yes men do this alot, I know of a gambler in same vain went to bandage his hand that he was beaten by some street gangs when he was struggling with them from taken away his money. The unfortunate thing is that after such lies most women will end up in pity for the man and after two days the man is up and that incident becomes a forgotten story in the house.



Have you told any gambling related lie before? Please share, let's read and have fun.

I have not had to lie on that because I don't gamble irresponsibly. It is when you gamble in such manner that you would need cover up for the misfortune.

One thing is that no matter what the name of a lie is, especially if the lie is about something that has a bad point of view in the eyes of society, usually over time it will also smell or mean that they will eventually be found out that they are involved in gambling. For the initial stage maybe yes you can still hide it but over time I think your wife or your partner will still feel that there is something odd in the behavior of his partner who gambles, especially this is gambling which requires money in order to get involved and play which means there is a possibility that one day your partner will find a number of money allocations that are not known where they are going which over time the suspicion will definitely get stronger when they find something increasingly odd, especially if you are married which is usually really difficult to hide about finances to our wives or partners, they will definitely ask a lot of questions related to where you use the money, none other than because they know our monthly income from work so when they see that we have no money then obviously prepare yourself to answer all the questions that come with pressure.

Lies like that in the first post here in the thread are not hurting ones,they don't do any harm,quite the opposite they give the woman what she wants to hear from her husband and the husband can keep to himself that he loves gambling more than her at certain times.The only harm I see in such declarations is exactly the signs of addiction I see in here,if they truly care about gambling more than anything else then this is a big problem which they need to fix as it will undoubtedly hunt them after some time have passed,the wife will find out and that is how a big number of divorces happen,the biggest number in the country where I live is exactly from gambling.
Every gambler will definitely lie to cover up what he is doing with his gambling activities to the people around him, including family members.
Likewise, husband will definitely hide his gambling activities from his wife because he doesn't want it to become problem if the wife finds out that her husband is gambler because the wife will have different sentiments when she finds out that her husband uses some money to gamble.
Moreover, not everyone will accept or consider gambling activities to be good activities and most people have bad view of gambling.
But in my opinion, the only person we can prevent from knowing about the gambling activities we do is our children, as father I really don't want my children to know that I often gamble.
This will have much worse impact than the wife finding out, if the wife finds out it might just be angry but if it is child then it has the potential to make the child curious and want to know about trying gambling.

Yeah you are correct, you know most times we as woman we often tends to know the way about our husbands money although it depends since I joined here I have never took much part to what my husband does with his money, provided that he has his part to play in the family correctly I don't kill myself over his instead I focused here after doing necessary things needed to be done at home then I can make out time and chances to read here all though..

I usually just provide everything to my partner and just get my allowance out of my salary while the rest is up to her on how she will budget in. I guess what I’m doing is right since your opinion is same with that.

Quote
Most men who lies at those are addicted gambler, let say they fails to carry out their responsibility as Menh or as woman at home when there weekly or monthly allocation are being given to them to adequate care of the family and they went ahead wasting into gambling, at this point they could be pushed to cook up a story as lies to defend themselves which I think is not necessary to do that rather open up.

Definitely, addiction makes you isolated with your family since you don’t want to get busted on what you are doing because you knew it’s not right.
Every woman with the way they behaves, you might be providing your monthly allowance to her but she may not get satisfied over what you does with your money at times it might leads to question you if what you are earning as salaries does reflects to your real life, activity and investment then she could be led to speak out. The most important thing is be open to each others with this there will be much worries over you since she knows what you are into how the money are being spent out every day.

I don't think any woman will be worried over her partner's mode of spending money if those unnecessary expenditures ain't affecting his responsibilities to his wife and family. Most times it is not all about money, but the level of attention you give to gambling that might make your family yearn for your attention. I still maintain that gambling activities should not be done in secret, if you are gambling right, your partner will adjust and let you enjoy whatever benefits you derive from gambling. Gambling is not a bad game, what matters most is how you go about it. If your partner shows concern over your gambling habit, it shows she means well for you.  It is now left for you to prove to her that one can be a gambler and still be responsible.
Like I said your partner could mad at you when started noticing insincerity in you or maybe you aren't carrying out your obligation as man at home and yet she knows that you are working and earning salary at a times also believed that you are gambler then here comes her suspect, and here comes her monitoring to know your activities especially that concerns with your finance, and some kind of lost attention whenever you are being called or caught off at some secret place could be room or toilet, being alone, quiet at some point then this will generate suspicion for yourself as gambler.

This lies is just for self satisfaction of not there is nothing more to why any gambler will lie, because when you want to categorise lies we fine this kind of lies told in the ops to be self afflicting lies, because in his story his lies truly did not hurt anyone and also he did not direct it to any but self, so the action may be justifiable.
Diving into the issues of addiction in the ops story is a different ball game entirely because yes to some extent I believe why the man in the story choose to say such lies just to justify his actions shows he is heavily addicted.

Yes, lying here indicates underlying problems. A happy person is unlikely to fabricate stories to hide their harmless preferences. Typically, a person lies because they are ashamed: either they fear judgment, feel they are addicted but don’t want to confront the truth, or, despite not being addicted, they anticipate misunderstanding from their partner. Any of these reasons suggests issues both personally and in their relationships

Hiding your gambling activities or lying about it could sometimes be a sign of gambling addiction. Like if you come to think of it , why hide something if it's right or doesn't have something more to it ? One of the biggest issues of hiding gambling activities from the people around you especially family members is when they eventually find out without you breaking the news to them before then. Majority of the they view it as a scenario where the feel they are distrusted by the gambler.

This can cause relationship and emotional issues. Also , as a responsible gambler I don't think you should measure the love you have for your loved ones like your wife with the amount of fun you have when you gamble except you are probably an addict.

same thoughts. Responsible gambling means enjoying it without letting it interfere with family commitments. Open discussion and management of gambling within the family context should be possible without secrecy or guilt.

I believe that everyone does their things as they see fit to have their own benefit. In this order of ideas we can say that if someone does not harm Anyone, then they can hide everything they Want and do what they like the most, as long as they do not They hurt no one , that is something that is noticeable and that you always have to raise Awareness, so when you see all these things you can prioritize things, if it harms the family you can't be in a game, in a casino , at least I can't. be damaging my own blood, then when they hide it and it is known, many things can be destroyed, and that is why so many things happen, separating families , fathers and mothers, children suffer and a family is Broken it fades away, and of course, this happens thanks to Addiction.


It's unfair to rate gambling above a spouse then lie about it in their presence. That attitude could lead to trouble someday. Players are meant to enjoy the game and forget about entangling themselves with too many thoughts which could affect them mentally. It's not necessary having those thoughts in our brain as gamblers. Because of the future impact it may have on the gambler or his spouse, bringing up such thoughts can be harmful to the spouse. Jokingly, one would want to express himself openly and would say mistakenly the truth, something too annoying for someone so dear to hear. The thought is stored on the subconscious of the gambler and one day he'll cough it up. Personally, I think, the player just developed a thought within him, that makes him think he's lying to his spouse. Those thoughts are not necessary. Why hide or lie when everything could be done moderately.

Absolutely true. As long as one's responsibilities aren't neglected, there shouldn’t be an issue. You're right in saying that honesty is crucial. We're all adults here, capable of having open and constructive conversations, especially within a partnership. With mutual understanding and respect in place there really shouldn't be any problems with a partner being aware of and accepting the other’s preferences whether its gambling or anything els

I agree it can be a sign of gamgling addiction, but I rather see it as the beginning of a long lasting addiction to gambling. Depending on the context, anyone could start to gamble in secret for a variety of reasons: it could be about religious stigma on gamblers, it could be because it is illegal for people to gamble or bet, it would be even because the person who wishes to gamble does not want the rest of their peers to realize he had money and wagered all of it on a casino.

Though, as losses accumulate and as the person continue to keep the habit a secret, it becomes more likely she/he will never address the problem and open up to their family and friends about it, perpetuating the gambling untill all the assets are gone.

That is one of the reasons I believe talking about losses with our loved ones is important, before they start to accumulate, so we can feel liberated from the guilt and shame which comes with all of it, I assume it helps to move on from behavioral addictions like problem gambling.

I'm completely honest about my gambling and never had to lie about it. What I do though is avoid the subject. When someone asks me if I have some bonus money from somewhere, I won't even say that I participate in a casino signature campaign. It's not that I'm ashamed or anything, but I don't want the conversation to go that way. Usually I feel like people are starting to interview me when they hear that I gamble, pretty much like if I told them that I rob stores at night or that I'm in a MLM campaign. So, derail the conversation and you won't have to lie Wink

     -   There are people who love gambling and will do anything just to gamble. Now, to the point that we can lie because of gambling, I have never experienced it, but I only keep
my gambling a secret from my wife.

Maybe the time I lied to my wife was when I won gambling and I didn't tell her that the money I gave her came from my crypto gambling winnings. Actually, even up to now I played gambled without her knowledge although I know that it won't be a problem, but I just really don't want her to know what I'm doing.
You didn't lie but you can gamble secretly from your wife, let me ask you, is your wife really love you? I don't think a person that live with you in the same house didn't know what each other doing. If she didn't care with that you do and don't want to dig deeper, then she might don't really love you.

No one can stay really anonymous with someone that live in the same house.
