To sum this up, if we say we do regret learning gambling in life, it means we are in a situation where there's no escape. A big problem causing us to become irresponsible and mess up our lives. Regret is a big word. To consider a thing regrettable means it brings emotional stress to the person to the highest level.

Fortunately, I'm not in a situation right now where I can consider gambling as a regrettable thing I did in my life.

Even if I'm losing much doing gambling, it doesn't mean I will forget who I am, and what should I do.
People would really be just that making out those realizations on the time that gambling did make out that huge impact into their lives in terms of loss of financial but they should have avoid it earlier
if they are really just that sensible towards their actions but they're not. Well, regret is always at the end and not on the front on which people would be starting on making those realizations when they've been fucked up. Dont put up yourself comes into a point that you would really be that making yourself ends up on regretting just because you have made yourself that blind about into those risks involved with gambling Dont wait up for your life to be ending up miserable just because of the wrong decisions you had made out. In my case, theres comes a time that i do bang up my monitor
because of having those consecutive losses. Regrets is there but i do have that controlled losses which i do know that im still that fine on such situation.

That was actually a bad experience -- too bad to have been overlooked... I'll make him pay every single dime, maybe it'll serve as a deterrent to avoid any form of repetition next time. I've never seen a time where any form of addiction makes a positive impact on anyone... It's usually from cases like this to something even worse... Seen similar cases and the brief question that pops up in me is - what if the money was meant for the person's utility bill, rent etc??

This should teach people to not have full Trust on a human... Always try to understand that anything can happen and people can decide to change - either for good or for bad.

And that is what bitcoin is trying to point out but people refuse to listen, the burden of being our own bank is huge since we have to take care of our coins by ourselves, however it is preferable to carry that burden than to rely on a third party that can steal your money and do whatever they want with it afterwards while you have no recourse to get that money back, as in the case of banks everything they do is legal, and if not they can always change the law so it is.

I don't have regrets about learning gambling in my life. That's my own choice. That's my own decision. No one forced me to do it.

Being responsible in gambling is hard to learn as the main ingredient for that to achieve is to experience all the possible worst situations we can encounter in gambling. I haven't experienced yet the considered too worst situation in gambling but I know that if that happens, I will still not regret learning gambling in my life.

Gambling is everywhere. It's up to us if we will turn into shit gamblers or not. Don't blame gambling for that.
I, too, have never once in my life regretted learning about gambling. I played poker, bet, for me this is the most attractive type of gambling because I like to use my brain in games. I once played roulette, which requires absolutely no mental decisions and this is what almost led me to completely lose my small deposit during my student years. I wanted to play a little, but then I started using the old Martin Gale strategy (almost all players know about it), and I lost half of my deposit. I started to sweat and was ready to curse this damn game because I realized that I had the last bet. And I did it, if I had lost, my balance would have been 0. But I was lucky and I won back. This was the last time in my life when I went to roulette, and everything started out frivolously. It scares me. Now I continue to bet on sports and play poker, but very rarely.

I was talking to a friend who used to be a compulsive gambler and is now a responsible gambler and I asked him what made him decide to be rehabilitated is it because of the money, he said its not.

It was because of the situation that he was in and that a friend asked him to keep his money it was his saving and he was about to buy a new cell and he only needed a week to complete the money and he didn't keep it in the house he might use it so he decided to entrust the money to him because his friend had complete trust on him.

Unfortunately because of his addiction, he was tempted to use the money to gamble thinking that he could double the money and give his friend a share so he could buy a more expensive cellphone, unfortunately, he lost the money and surprisingly his friend showed up and asked for the money the day after he loss the money.

He has no choice but to tell the truth, his friend does not know that he is a gambler so to forgive him for what he did his friend asks him to undergo rehabilitation, he was so embarrassed that he regrets learning about gambling, and thankful that because of his friend he was rehabilitated.

What's a similar case that you're in that made you regret that you learned gambling?

Your contribution is appreciated.
Never regret it as I have never done something dumb or irresponsible while gambling, and about your story the friend that got their trust betrayed is probably the best friend the addicted gambler could have hoped for, because if I am honest that is the kind of thing I would never forgive, not that I would give my money away to someone else to keep it in store, after all the ability of being your own bank is one of the most attractive characteristics of bitcoin to me, however you also mention that your friend is now a responsible gambler, but I doubt it, once a person experiences an addiction, trying to somehow just moderate it will never work, he needs to quit for good if he does not want to go through that hell again.

There are actually not anything about the "money" side that I regret, but I do regret the amount of time that I wasted to "wager" and to mindlessly push a button to play the slots.

Games are developed to keep you gambling... you will continously win small amounts and then you continue gambling.. until you run out of money.

So you are wasting something that are more important than money, namely quality time with your family and friends.
I can relate very well with what you are saying because my case was actually quite different from yours but it's same old thing gambling is something that was design to keep you playing till all is gone and that's why am always scared of involving myself that much because anytime I remember the money I lost, it just triggers me to go and try again which if you eventually go back because of greed then you can actually come to the decision that gambling isn't something anyone can rely on.

It's amazing how life can surprise us like this, isn't it? Your friend's gambling story and human battle between trust and temptation resonate deeply. It turns out personal money is more about discipline than numbers. Your friend's journey from compulsive to responsible gambling is about life control, not money. It's the actual jackpot, right?

A comparable test was given to me. Not gambling, but a dangerous investment that promises the moon but rarely delivers. The promise of rapid gains and defying the odds is siren song. When you dance with danger, you're gambling with relationships and trust, not just money. When I recognized this, the magic broke. They say money comes and goes. But trust? Rebuilding after damage is difficult

The gambler should able to handle the temptation in the gambling,because whenever the gamblers suppose to get the money from their earnings.Most of them get into the gambling by the temptation towards the gambling.The gamblers should learn to control their temptation when the money comes is needed for the essential things.

The trust should be keep in the mind till the end of the game,because anytime the game of the gambler will change to the positive way.The gambler should play the game with the positive attitude,because the money used in the gambling site was the real money.If the gambler had loss of some money because of the over confidence,the same will affect the gambler financial expenses.

That's very true mate. The first loss we make in gambling, tends to be a very painful experience. And no one will be happy and they will regret placing the wrong games. We keep blaming our selfs that if we had played something else we might have won instead which might not be true. There may be so many reasons why I might be regretful about knowing gambling but that should be in my first experiences as I tend to loss often but kept playing.

As a responsible gambler, we should be able to minimize our spending when placing bets to avoid spending past our limits. Gambling can be amazing sometimes and you may not even notice when you have spent money that was meant for something else.
On my end, I think it would be my last bet which will make me regret gambling. First bet won't be first if no attempt followed unlike with your last bet which means you are already tired of things already or with your gambling journey. We may engage to any gambling game that we would want 'coz there's plenty to choose from however, if it is not your day then expect nothing less than losing. When it comes to regrets; those who almost or have lost their "all" already in gambling are the ones who are more familiar with that feeling which most likely decided for themselves to quit 'coz they both have no enough eagerness and resources to continue; what's left with them are their regrets. Unfortunately, there's no undo option once things are placed and no matter how you beg for things to be in favor of your desires.

If you are one of the new ones and you fear of such instance in your career that you will regret everything, quit already and never wait for it to happen. Have the initiative to save yourself from such feelings. Everyone is free to gamble but not everyone would be glad of what they have in this industry. Most of the people are losing; thus, gambling success is not for everyone. Emotions are a tough opponent from this activity. You'd only know you did wrong once you are already on the 'ground' wishing for things to just be a dream.

If it's the first time we lost huge in gambling, we can say those words. But the longer we are involved with it, we won't blame gambling anymore, rather we will now blame our selves for getting tempted to bet and maybe we got greedy, resulting for us to lose, instead of winning or ended up with a break-even capital. My worse situation would be, is when I use the money that is intended for the utility bill.

We all know how hard it is when we don't have an electricity, water, internet, and so on... . That taught me an expensive lesson and never gambled again above my limits. And in order to be sure, I can even pay my utility bills in advance.

Reading about your friend's experience with game addiction shows how it can hurt relationships and money. When you feel like you have to risk something bad can happen. Good things may have happened to many people, including your friend, because they bet, like losing money or having problems in their relationships. In order to beat addiction, this shows how important it is to get help and go to rehab. More people will know about the problems that can happen when people gamble too much if they hear about these kinds of events.
Getting help when you are addicted to gambling is very necessary so you can immediately start the healing process. But the problem is that a gambling addict cannot easily admit his gambling addiction or admit that he often gambles. That's because there is a feeling of discomfort when admitting this to other people. After all, they want to hide it from other people, but it turns out someone knows about it, which makes them admit it. And if he really admits and is willing to try to heal himself, that means he gets a chance to fight for his recovery from gambling addiction. And help from other people in the form of moral support is really needed by people who are addicted to gambling so that they don't feel alone in undergoing the process of healing their gambling addiction.

What's a similar case that you're in that made you regret that you learned gambling?

I don't face situations like that and also don't want to be in a position like that, that's why I keep trying to gamble according to my limits. I once gambled using money that wasn't mine because it was the result of debt, but I was quite careful in calculating my ability to pay the debt so it was still based on my limits.
Be grateful if he can overcome his addiction even though he has to go through difficult times, but that is the way so he can return to being a responsible player because if there is no change then he could become more seriously addicted because he not only uses other people's money to gamble but also uses up assets which he has because he cannot overcome his desire to always gamble because it is caused by addiction.

I have never felt regretful just because I got to know the world of gambling and studied it and played there. I regret not because of the gambling that I did, but I regret the bad behavior that I did when gambling and that happened repeatedly, making me a person who was quite careless in making decisions when placing bets that only resulted in losses. . And starting from these problems and the feelings of regret that I experienced, I was determined to become a better gambler, but not in the sense of a gambler who was able to win every time he placed a bet. But a gambler who is wiser in terms of self-control and good finances. And by gambling wisely and controlling my finances consistently well, this has proven to be able to help me overcome the losses I experience in the gambling I do. Which is not only able to enable me to manage risk well, but by doing this my gambling becomes even better, where this gambling activity does not interfere with other activities.

Right. Taking control of your impulses and keeping your finances in check is helping you turn the tide on losses. It's about more than just managing risks, it's creating a gambling setup that adds fun without messing up the rest of your life. Kudos to us for taking charge and making gambling a controlled and enjoyable experience rather than a headache!

Yes, you mentioned some very important points that are indeed recommended for every gambler to apply to his gambling involvement, such as controlling the heart, lust and also following by applying financial management is really needed if you are involved in gambling. Don't let an activity that is just for entertainment and fun turn into a path to ruin because of the wrong approach due to a misunderstanding of gambling.

I don't think it will be too difficult to manage possible risks if we basically have the right and correct understanding of gambling, because most people end up with addiction or their downturn comes from a wrong understanding of gambling, such as assuming and assuming that gambling is a place to make money, and this is a mindset and perspective that is completely wrong and not recommended, after all gambling is just a game of probability which means there is absolutely no certainty about what the outcome will be at the end of the session between winning and losing, but the fact about the percentage of wins being much lower than losses is a truth and the proof is that most people who come with the intention of making money instead suffer a significant amount of losses, so the right understanding along with risk management is highly recommended for safety.

And I'm also quite surprised, how come there are people who gamble for the reason of getting rid of stress, but after gambling and the end result is a loss, they actually seem even more stressed. especially if they experience consecutive defeats, this can make them even more frustrated and almost crazy. So, when gambling, we must be able to accept defeat, because this is a quite important aspect of healthy gambling. By being able to accept defeat, this shows that we already have emotional maturity and apart from that, this can also help us prevent impulsive actions that can cause us to experience significant losses.

Losing is an inevitable part of gambling and it could be said that losing is something we will definitely experience, while winning is only a possibility. And awareness of the risks involved in gambling is quite important to avoid deep feelings of disappointment.
Players who are able to accept defeat calmly tend to be able to make wiser betting decisions.

Those gamblers who have been in that situation have one thing to do and that's to change for the better, it may not be for the money but it should be for themselves. Especially when you have affected and spent the money of others, you're not going to like the consequence of it because the person to whom you owe that money will lose your trust and that's more than gambling. Losing someone's trust is hard to get back.

And for you to return it is going to take the time or might not be returned anymore. I don't have a similar experience but we can see from OP's story that there's always a change for the better and all you have to do is make amendments and change for yourself and you're going to see the better part of it. No one is going to change you but only you alone and there might be some help but they're not going to be consistent so your only hope is to be willing and embrace the change.

You can still gamble but it will be a different matter right now because what you'll be doing is you'll be aware on how you're going to do it unlike before, you're reckless and even it's not your money, you'll be spend. You'll become more responsible from now on.

Thank goodness, I was not tempted to bet with someone else's money. That is to say, I am aware of the potential repercussions if I carry out that illegal act. In my opinion, it is a betrayal of trust to use another person's funds without their explicit permission. In other words, it's critical to respect other people's autonomy and refrain from acting in their place, particularly when it comes to financial issues.
 
Gambling carries danger, and your friend lost all the money that he later regretted because he didn't stop to consider if what he was doing was good or wrong. Putting people's financial well-being first and avoiding putting them in danger without their consent or knowledge is essential, don't you think?
 
It's common knowledge that gambling may be compulsive and alluring, especially when you win big, so it's morally right for us to stay away from engaging others in potentially harmful behaviors. Furthermore, just like what your friend did, using someone else's money for gambling without that person's knowledge can potentially be harmful and strain their relationship, and maybe your friend's friend will develop a trust issue.
