Actually gambling meant to be other way,it can bring us lot of friends into our life so make our lonliness to forget so you should reconsider about this and surely you can get overcome this disadvantage.
I'm really sorry but that's just BS.
How gambling can bring you lots of friends?
You can go with your friends to the casino but in the end of the day when you gamble you risk your own money and not your friends'.
Gambling is isolating people, it's not connecting people, if you believe otherwise then I am not sure what type of "friends" are you referring to?
I'm not going to reply to this in a similar fashion, like "Gambling is connecting people, it's not isolating people", because in my opinion it would be the worst way of conducting a dialogue. There are billions of people in the world and their experiences from the same activities differ from case to case, in the same manner as outcomes. Of course you are right saying that gambling is isolating people, but you are right only partially, because there are others, like me and zhekinsp, finding many friends on gambling sites. I hope you understand that the answer to the question "Whose friends are better?" is not that obvious.
In short, we can't state categorically neither that gambling is good nor that gambling is bad because it is good for some and bad for others.
