He’s a gambling addict, i fought with him a couple of times to stop poker but he never listens, he stops talking to me then he feels guilty back about it and starts talking to me again, but never stops poker. He knows it bothers me and whenever i ask him wts he doin, he says poker. Now he invited me on facebook to play poker with him. Why is he acting like this with me?

    He’s not forcing ANYTHING on you, YOU’RE allowing it, if you really dislike it leave him and stop talking to him.

    Because he is a typical guy AKA a douche-bag.

    As you said and answered this question for yourself already…he is a gambling addict…that answers it all. He has to get help on his own to break this addiction.
    BTW, No one can force their problems on you…the only way they can is if you let them.

    be cool…

    What does it mean? Means you are LESS important than Poker. Move on.

    He is acting this way because he is a gambling addict. Dump him. Don’t talk to him any more. You have responsibility in this situation also. If you don’t like who he is, then stay away from him.

    Sounds like he likes the “action”.

    You have more fun with him doing things other ten gambling.

    That is why they call it an “addiction”

    He is an addict so if he can’t beat you then he will ask you to join him! You can be addicted to anything and if you accept then you become his enabler!

    Ok its def time to LEAVE!!! He probably likes you (or he’s lonely) and he wants someone to share his problem. DON’T! If he contacts you, don’t respond. Don’t answer calls or texts, messages or e-mails. He’s not willing to admit his problem so let him find out what its like to get into deap sh*t on his own.

    Lots of luck to you.

    Why are you trying to change him? If you don’t like his gambling, it’s up to you to make the move. You either leave him so you don’t have to deal with it, or let him be who he is and deal with it. The only one who can make him stop is himself. We all have some kind of bad habit, but we are the only ones who can do anything about it.
