so aside from gambling responsibly, will you agree that we should disclose our gambling habits or is it not the business of our spouses? does gambling really have the capacity to break up a marriage or a family?
I think that it is true. But the first reason is a lie, gambling is only the second. First of all you lied your partner, after it you lost(mostly) your common money. If you win, your partner can forgive you and allow to continue the game. But if you play and lose it - it can become the first big step to break up a family.
About me - i told my wife that i plan to go betting, it would take lots of time and i would use for it only my money, but will share profit to family. She was sceptic but agreed and gambling didn`t become a problem for us.
