But how about the surroundings? if you have a group of friends who regularly gambles it's not possible to be a gambler too.
If you have a strong belief that gambling isn't for you and you can maintain it for a very long time, then I don't think you will be affected by the habits of your friends. But usually, people who associate with gamblers will certainly become gamblers as well and eventually become addicts. There are many examples of people who are addicted to gambling just because they are following the trends of those around them.
Right.Mostly the people that surround us will greatly affect us too.If there are gamblers around,it is very possible that in the coming days we will also learn how to gamble and definitely develop and interest on it and finally become addicted to it.And because of our own greediness to gain more profits rather than losses,addiction sometimes is really hard to stop.
