people who have a good mindset, when they are lonely they will do positive things like watching movies or playing games and it is better for them to have direct contact with their friends or family. escape when lonely by playing games is not a problem, by playing games they can make new friends if they play online-based games, this can also reduce the risk of loss if they do gambling. with the number of online games today and various kinds of genres that can also be played, they can just download and play it and also this does not drain their pockets.
Boredom is just an excuse that most gambling addicts use to defend their gambling behaviour, which is not even enough to justify the fact that they are going in the wrong direction. Aside from how populous online games have been, there are also social media platforms where someone with internet access can access whatever information they want, interact with people all over the world, and make fun out of owhere.
On the aspect of the online games I get calls from friends most times for me to play an iMessage game with them, and we do this all the time to help one another, and we challenge ourselves and chat all at the same time until one of us has something serious to do for the day. If not, we create our own fun out of nowhere, even without being close to each other. Technology has made things very easy for us if we have the right mindset and can make positive use of it.
