also just going ahead and dumping her will really take the wind out of her sails, as instead of her being the one in control, you are. Maybe it will jolt some logic into her, but its doubtful

EZ solution...

Since she views poker as the gambool... you have to question the foundations of her belief in regards to the gambool... ie the idea that the bible says you are not allowed to "gamble":

Ask her where in the bible it says its wrong to play poker? Or that its wrong to make a living?

But I agree with everyone else... you are pretty much screwed...

Nope, if you want verification ask your mom

she needs to watch this:

solid mfkn brag

It's cliched but true; a woman who would ask you to give up something so important is not worth being with. The only "solution" IMO is to give her an ultimatum of your own: she can accept that you play poker or you are done as a couple.


****ty situation, my condolences OP

This brought a tear of joy to my eye(just one though).

Not the girl for you, methinks.

in the poker game of life, women are the...

















ones that should stfu and not interfere with your passions/job. Try explaining it again, if she won't listen ... VEGAS THE ****IN' MIRAGE BABY

lol awesome

stop posting that image.

hope you aren't timing out..gl btw....

Say il give up poker, if u give me pleasure every night for 10 years, and your sorted!!

Let me give the unpopular answer.

Even if you are a successful poker player now, poker does not spell "stable long term career" to a woman who is considering a life and kids with you. Even if she were ok with poker now, what about 5 years, 10 years. So much changes in that time.

She's thinking 10 years from now, poker dies, or you start to suck. What do you do then, become a refridgeration technician?

Maybe try really demonstrating your long term play both if poker works out and if poker doesn't work out. Get her input, and work to set really clear boundaries for when you will stop playing poker (i.e. if your winrate falls below X for 6 months).

Ultimately you might have to choose. There are many fish in the sea, but also if she's the right one, it should last a lot longer than poker.

soulmate-like relationships don't have ultimatums. i'd take this as a suggestion that perhaps your current situation isn't. but give her a good siihb before you kick her out imo.

allow me to ask:

But how much did you lose?

/thread basically


Does she have some sort of neurosis concerning poker, some sort of traumatic experience? Neuroses often make smart people act stupidly. Barring this, she probably is just dumb. No offense but 'love' can blind people people for a long time.

If you can't pinpoint and understand her problem and stubbornness with poker, then it will 100% not be the only thing in the future she is obtuse about.

this is like one of the most romantic stories i've read in a long while

Good lord how did you ever become friends with such a person to begin with? Fess up, did you two meet in sunday school but you've been led astray from the flock?
