Re: How to tell girlfriend about amount of money spent playing poker
just one thing to add to the other posts.
some women can be very funny about financial issues, and she may not want to bring it up as you are in a sensitive (pre-proposal) stage.
If you haven't already, it might help to (prior to taking with her) set up a specific separate bank account for your poker wins/losses. I did this and it helped make it clear to my wife that i have no intentions of using family funds, and her anxiety wilted.
oh one other thing that can help; i bought my wife diamond eaarrings with about 2k from my winnings... a gift she would be upset by if it was our family money...it really helped her see that im not just wasting my time!
good luck!!
