Poker Addiction?

Question by white.daisy: poker addiction?
My boyfriend has this attraction to playing poker…as of right now, he’s been at the casino for 48 hours, where he’s complaining of a headache, and planning to call out of work tomorrow, but still won’t come home. While he usually does come home with more money than he took, he’s very secretive about his activity there. And the addictive behavior is starting to concern me…he has blown off everything we had planned this weekend while he sits down there. Is this normal or am I right in feeling its a little excessive?
He came home this morning, after being gone for three days. He had to call out of work today, because he was so out of it. He took his credit card this time and lost so much that he refuses to tell me. I am so upset and confused.

No you are not over excessive. He has a problem, and he needs to fix it. It’s not right for him to blow you off. And to be there for that long is ridiculous! Sure one night is fine but that is a little over the top. Sit him down and tell him how you feel, maybe he will change. If he doesn’t take him to a counceler. Good luck.
