    I would definately surround yourself with people who don’t gamble. If you get tempted while going to certain places or seeing certain people, I would stop those things. I’m glad that you confessed. I doubt she actually hates you. I think she hates what you did. Actions speak louder than words. I may try finding a phycologist or a support group. After a few months when you feel as if you are more ready, I would give her a more sincere apology after she is calm. Maybe a card and a small gift? I’m not sure what shes like so its hard to say. Definately prove to her that you love both her and the kids. Just don’t come on too strong especially while shes upset. I hope that you begin recovery with your addiction to gambling and that you do well. I wish you the best!

    He’s trying to help other people. Have? you ever done that in your LIFE?

  • strawberryseason says:

    the government decides lots of things, for instance, that you can’t? buy crack at your local 7-11.

    Do you want heroin sold over the counter? at your CVS pharmacy?

  • strawberryseason says:

    No one who gambles regularly has control. ? They are ALL freakin addicted.

  • strawberryseason says:

    the government bans sales of heroin and cocaine. legalized gambling is? the same.

  • strawberryseason says:

    If you want to gamble with your friends,? play poker, fine. The government should not be in the business of promoting or making money off casinos.

  • strawberryseason says:

    Right you are. ?

  • strawberryseason says:

    Casinos are like drug pushers. Not everyone will become? addicted to cocaine from using it occassionally, but some people WILL. There are not enough safe guards in effect.

    That was Alot of information in 5mins. Just sitting in a casino can give you lung cancer. The smoking is out of muthafuckin’ control. The casinos dont even? build vents to pull the smoke up and away from the casino floor. Yeah, you can get a pretty good buffet for $4.99, $12.99 will get ya prime rib, but the casino’s are addicting.

    Interesting that a bartender is responsible for cutting? someone off if they have had to many drinks, but a casino that tracks you with players cards and surveillance has no liability if someone blows there life savings in a night. Casinos are trash especially Indian casinos!

  • dogshitballs says:

    I work at a casino, and I can honestly tell you that it is highly immoral. Gambling can? seem like a fun thing to do, but the problem lies with the low-medium income earners. They begin with trying to win a little bit of money to be able to enjoy regular things like a good night out ( without having to live off bread and water for a week afterwards ) . Then once they lose, they chase their loses. This then topples into years, sometimes decades, of people feeling like they are constantly down and
