[Living The Dream]

I got burned tonight real bad. 1-7 tonight including a large wager on Ball State -20.5 and lost that with 1:33 to go. I was in a situation where I lost money that was needed and now I will have to explain to the wife in a few days how I put us in a bad spot. We all have a disease fellas, just hate when you get nervous from other things that you don't have control of and then you make a bad decision thinking you can make it up gambling. Problem is that past successes mask the bad times. I don't know what's going to happen, but with a newborn that's just a month old and a 2 year old, I can't imagine my life without them being around all day everyday. I don't think this will end well, so I am prob going to have to get help and pray I can stop this madness of a disease and keep my family with me.....

Sorry for dragging some of you down and I am sorry if I have caused any grief for any of you in the past...

Pray for me..

Family is the ultimate.. This us why I am afraid of what's going to happen.. Not going to lie, I have had some ups and downs. The downs have been pretty bad... I have put the wife in some bad spots and she always stuck by me. I just think that the trust is going to be gone after this blunder and i might lose what I have family wise. I don't understand how I can do this to her... I def need help, I just want to stop doing this every so often...

terrible

[TonyTall]

family is the ultimate until your kids turn 13 and they dont worship you anymore. just wait until they are that old then start gambling again, until then take them to disney

[greenhippo]

Looks like he thinks there is a distinct possibility he'll lose both. As much as the rush of gambling gives me (I flew to Vegas twice in two weeks to bet on weekday football matchups these last two weeks) I love having the money even more.

[Fidel_CashFlow]

this isnt your normal pity post right here fellas.

This guy is really hurting right now.

Best chance you have LiveTheDream is to not glance over lines at all .

Being a forum member to a sports gambling site isnt going to help the urge much though....

Thankfully I don't bet large amounts. My max bet is like $60, and all of my money is set aside by my wife as "allowance for betting" lol!

[Nick Papageorgio]

Have wife delete sbr change all offshores site passwords and disable accounts. If you have a local, have wife call in and have you banned.Pick up a new hobby that involves the family....bowling, movies, something. This is how you earn the trust back dreamer. Have to be willing to stick to no gambling or this is all pointless.

[BigDeem5]

Ask your wife for penetrating forgiveness and tell her one more god damn all in

[Living The Dream]

I am actually right now sending emails to my books asking them to close my accounts. I know that I am going to have to stop coming on this site and the other forums I goof around on.... Not really a pitty post and not looking for anything other than a place to vent as I am closing all my accounts out. Years ago I started going to a meeting and I stopped, I thought it was ridiculous and I could handle it myself. Its obviously not the case and I do really need help from elsewhere. I am the only one to blame here. I am sure that if somehow she sticks with me again, I am prob going to have to make drastic changes. For instance changing my phone as to lose the internet and misc changes that I am aire I will need to make.

We are all in this together, and while I knowa lot of ragging ggoes in here, you guys for the mist part do understand.

Gaming is actually pointless, you need to sit down and really think about it. You're fighting for more money when you can actually earn more money with a constant income and investments.
My investments earn more than gambling and I win quite a bit gambling(I bet small amounts).
These large casinos don't exist because everyone wins, when losing you should always know when to step away! I've gotten in a heated argument with a pit boss in Vegas because I left a table after betting only 4 turns on a roulette table and I was up a good sum of cash!

[ridik01]

Play the stock market, it's a slower paced style of gambling and it's approved by modern society.

[tony_come]

Slow down but never quit

[crustyme]

dip in to the college fund and put it all on stanford +10.5.

No one admires a quitter.

I'm sure he appreciates advice from someone who lives with their parents.

About how much money did you lose today living the dream??
I have had my ups and downs in the last 6 months, won so much and lost more than half of it lol...

[Ra77er]

I thought everyone on SBR was disciplined and kept a running spreadsheet for 3 years to prove they are a boss and not air betting.

Back on topic - Dream it is sad to hear/read these stories. Be honest with her, tell her you can't stop it on your own and you need help. If she decides its too much you can still man up and get yourself together. Hard road but you can do it. Take care

[ridik01]

Hell no! LSU +12, Alabama is 1-6 while College Gameday is in Tuscaloosa!

Today was about $700. It's not the money here, its about the trust that my wife will lose. I have lost much more and had us in a bad way, honestly she would have a problem if I lost $100 with what I have put her through years ago. I have won a bunch in th past also, however its a trust issus that's going to be a problem here.

Threads like this make me embarrassed to be a member of this forum. It's amazing that posters on here not only lack control over their gambling, but then seek comfort by posting their failure.



God bless you Living The Dream, but seriously get the fukk off here you fukk.

[Living The Dream]

I guess you are right, its better to hear the people with their lies of good fortune on here. I am an embarrassment to myself and family, but I am not fluffing up the bs on here. Thanks and I am done, accts are all closed, which I can't believe I actually just did. Now forumville is next. How do I close these?

relax bro.. and think the way of your problem

[Cuse0323]

Best of luck man. Just gotta do it and stop, you have a life, no need for this shit. Smack yourself when you think of gambling, play the memories all the way back, don't just stop on the good. Shit isn't even that fun, you won't be missing much.
