I will like to pass a serious message from the ugly incidence I had witnessed. I have this friends that were couple and have been couple for a long time this guys always share even thing together especially same orientation about life, I was open to them that I do gamble they don’t like it at all but I made them understand that I am an adult and that’s my life, recently the lady found that the guy do gamble and he owned up that he has been doing it for a while too. They are broken up now on the grounds of mistrust.
I will like people to learn from this because many people gamble in secret for what ever reason and the have companions who knows nothing about this and when exposed can cause the relationship to split or have cracks.
If you gamble it is of your interest and that of your spouse, you both need to share same orientation about gambling or given a chance to understand and respect the other person gambling choice and if they won’t then either they go or you reconsider your choice. Why should an adult keep their gambling choice away from their lover that’s deceit to me. Gambling is not a dirty secret.
If you have a spouse and you must gamble I think it's wise you let your partner know about it than keep it secret, keeping it secret Will not only make you lost trust from your partner but will also destroy your home, and on the other hand I don't think a man with family should put much interest on gambling, because gambling doesn't guarantee you a success and as a family man it's kinda dangerous, because after gambling at the end of the day you lost, while family is hoping for you to come home with something and you've already spent it on gambling this is an order for most family men and you know it will not only bring misunderstanding but also make your partner think you have a side chick that you spend on, so as a man with spouse you shouldn't keep it a secret to your spouse or better still don't go into it, your partner should know what you can do and what you can not do so she can be able to defend you whenever it is necessary.
