gf found out about my gambling and shes pissed

[BTC_Sam]

so my girlfriend saw me on stake last night and now shes giving me the silent treatment. i only lost like 150 bucks but apparently she thinks im "throwing our future away" and being "irresponsible with money". we're not even living together or sharing finances so idk why shes so upset. anyone else dealt with relationship drama over gambling?

 

[madnomad]

bro if she cant handle you losing 150 wait till she finds out about my 3k deficit this month lmao

 

[Tyrone]

maybe she upset because youre acting like a degenerate? just a thought

@Tyrone 150 bucks is hardly degenerate money. i make decent salary

 

[satoshisobsob]

women always overreact to gambling. my ex used to freak out over 50 dollar bets

 

[proxytom]

@satoshisobsob maybe because they see the pattern before we do?

how often you been playing? might not be about the money but the habit

 

[BTC_Sam]

@Cryptoist few times a week maybe? nothing crazy

 

[junmisakiro]

few time week is lot if she no know about it before...

 

[bittersweet]

She probably worried about where it leads. 150 today, 500 next month, then what?

 

[BTC_Sam]

i have self control. not gonna blow my savings or anything

 

[goxeme]

How long you been together? She might just be looking out for your future as a couple

From her perspective, discovering a hidden gambling habit (even small amounts) raises trust and communication concerns. It's often less about the money and more about not being transparent about activities, the potential for escalation, different values around risk and money, and feeling excluded from financial decisions. It might help to have an honest conversation about boundaries and expectations

@CryptoDada this exactly. my ex didnt care about amounts but hated that i hid it

 

[BTC_Sam]

i mean i didnt hide it exactly. she never asked about it

 

[Fjodor]

"didnt hide it" vs "never told her" sounds like hiding to me

 

[coinhunter]

depends how serious the relationship is tbh. if youre just dating casually then whatever
