Re: Anyone else losing thier social life because of poker?
That [censored] happens...get a new girlfriend...play on a sports team...whatever it is you are in to is going to cut into your free time. Poker also takes up alot of time...more so than many things....
Do you play live? That is even more time consuming, especially when the best times are weekend nights. Think of it as the sacrifice you make for poker greatness! |

At the same time, it's pretty easy to be critical about [whatever] when you're sitting around getting high, playing folk songs on a guitar, and pretty much living through the sexual revolution. A lot of these same peace/love types who were crying to end the war were the same people calling troops baby-killers, and spitting on them in airports when they returned. How FOS can you get? /rant |

Re: Anyone else losing thier social life because of poker?
I recently learned how to take a break and read a book, it was enlightening and disturbing, i recommend that we all just stay in our shell and pretend that mainstream media is not controlling our thoughts.
WHATEVER U DOO.. don't read Chomsky!!!! |

With all my respect for Govman's efforts, i think he takes advantage of every opportunity to evangelize his political opinions. Although I believe that most of the things in our lives are closely related with politics, we should look for a proper groung for political discussions. And obviously, Psychology forum of 2+2 is not the proper ground. In despite of my very little contribution, I love to read 2+2 forums because of my admiration to this beautiful game called 'poker'. Please acknowledge my astonishment when someone insistently suggests us to join the army as an answer to most of our problems, which are voiced in poker forums. Someone asks us about the relation between our social lifes and poker. He strikes again: "Join the army!!". Someone complains about a bad beat.. Join the army, then you will see the real bad-beat [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]).. Someone complains about his poor bankroll management.. As Bob Dylan once said, "No reason to get excited," here comes the solution: Join the army! You won't even have enough time to rack your brain on where to spend. etc.. One thing I have learned from poker, taking yourself too seriously is the absolute way to lose. A little empathy, please.. |
