   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.


That your partner is a gambler and didn't told you about it but that you got to know by accident doesn't give a good rationality to eject from the relationship. Except you have been nursing such freaky thoughts and now got a loophole to use for an excuse to leave your partner.

Some partners don't reveal it to their spouse because they feel they could be judged wrongly due to the kind of person they know their spouse to be as someone who doesn't like gambling. But even in relationships we have to respect each others certain choices in as much as they doing those things in a responsible manner.
