If she hates poker I will respect her wishes, but she will also have to respect my desire to play. There must be a consensus.

If a wife loves her husband, then she should be condescending to him. Without this consent, they will not exist in their common life.

My "ex" wife and I used to play all kinds of different card games, with friends and relatives. Used to be pretty fun, although she is not only a sore loser, but also a sore winner. lol Always rubbed it in everyone's face when she won.
I started playing poker online and tried to get her interested. She hated poker all of a sudden for some reason, she also would be like that movie "The Cooler" whenever she would come into the room, bam I would lose the hand, even if I didn't she her coming. lol
My brother thought I was nuts, until she came over to his house a few times and it happened right away to him.
I ended up finding out that what she really hated was me and our children. I have been a single dad for a long time now, and we all are very happy.

Divorce ! Poker is more important ! kkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Its a joke, but talk with her and explains that in your time, you will play poker and the her time, he makes what he want. Can her have fear because its a sport that involves money, but with you have a great head... you will show to her that dont have problems.

I can't imagine how to hate own children :( Having two (one infant) and they are so much lovable. Hugs to you, good that your children have at least a wonderfull father :)

The girl doesn't like not Poker itself, she doesn't like something else...
The time without her boyfriend (but I think it's far to selfish), or the idea he will lose a lot of money, for example.

He is a man, so he 1) can do whatever he wants and fills free 2) has some (!) respect for his woman.
But there should be limits, always)

P.S. I'm a girl)

He must not hide his love to poker. He must talk to her and make her understand, and even make her a poker player too!

Complicated this situation, but if she doesn't like it, I think it would be better to tell her that she plays and try to convince her than to play hidden, as this can aggravate their relationship. I don't think it's right for her to try to ban him too, since although each couple does what they want in life as long as they don't disrespect another, then you can't deprive a person of what she likes to do just because you don't like it.

I doubt that he can maintain his concentration when playing with this pressure, problems like this only cause discomfort at the tables the best poker played is the one with pleasure

My girlfriend also disapproves of my poker game. She certainly understands that I play when she is not around, so that can’t be called treason!

Do like I have done. Make an agreement with her.
But if you lose bunch of money maybe she is right.

what will you do if you were him ?
if he's losing a lot of money id plan where I'm going to be living

Hiding things from your/his wife is never a good idea as she WILL find out
and she WILL remember it for yearrrrrssss and every fecking argument you have you WILL be reminded about it .

But she also should not be able to tell him what to do or how to do it unless he's a gambling addict or losing more than they can afford or he's spending her money ..

They have a problem in their relationship that..

A) She doesn't want him to do something that he wants to do
B) He is doing it behind her back

This is not a good recipe for a happiness.

What nonsense. Of course you don’t need to completely kill your time with the game, but still. I don’t think it’s so malicious.

I know I have already seen this answer. Get a new wife !!! :rofl: Seriously though. might be true.

Really I expect any partner would find it unacceptable if they were playing all the time and not doing other activities together at all, but then perhaps his interest in poker happened, because they were not doing anything together anyway.

I would say, that I expect, that she would like it more if he won the Sunday Million and spent some of the money on her. No doubt. Perhaps the problem is not the playing poker, perhaps the problems run a bit deeper than that................


I expect there is some of this involved too............:girlshit::eek:

Hi.
Sometimes my girlfriend takes offense at me, but I always try to find a compromise that will suit both of us.
Good luck.
