Anyone who has ever been or are in a committed relationship or marriage where both people gamble? Or in a relationship with a gambler with a friend, best friend, family related etc... Knowing you are in it together is weird comforting and gives me some sort of undefined explanation.
What does that look like for you? Your experience needs to be heard.
For me gambling will affect relation especially when we are about to lose often. Our relationship to our family will affect because we might have no time for them just seeking for capital again to gamble.
