It's definately a bad idea to consider marrying someone who doesn't "approve" of what you do. I think it's very arrogant when one person thinks that how another person makes a living needs to meet their own personal moral standards.

wtf is wrong with you? There's nothing in the post indicating that she's arrogant or nasty or judgmental about it all. Shes not some random person that ran up to him and said "You're going to hell for playing poker." She's his girlfriend who is about to move in with him, and she said that she doesn't like that it adds nothing to society. People certainly have a right to choose their partners based on whether their values and interests line up.

You're the one that ignorantly jumped into a situation and condemned someone based solely on your own dumb assumptions.

Thanks for 'sticking up for me' on that argument, but you were pretty judgemental in an earlier post. You are claiming that I am lying to her for 2 years +. While I don't give a dollar amount, she knows I won a 14k+ tourney online among other things, and stating a $200 win or loss for a session isn't a huge stretch for 8/16, which I was playing up until June 1st. June 1st I started 20/40 full time, and she went to Argentina for the semester August 15th, and gets back December 15th, so I haven't really been lying, just not announcing my session to session results, since I talk to her once a day.

My original plan was to wait until after New Years to tell her, but based on everyones advice, I think I may tell her during the week of the 17th, probably 17-19th so it doesn't get exposed to her by someone saying "Pope won $3000+ last night or Pope lost $3000+ last night" which would obviously make matters 10x worse...
