The man I like is addicted to gambling. He’s in his 20s and earns around ¥30 million a year, but he spends almost all of it on gambling and drinking. He’ll spend ¥300,000 on drinks in one night—even when he’s not at a hostess club. (He opens champagne bottles one after another.) He’s constantly betting on horse races and baseball, with bets ranging from several hundred thousand to several million yen. Even when I tell him it’s a waste of money and that he should quit, he says he does it because he has nothing to lose—he doesn’t have a family or even a girlfriend. He’s not particularly into designer brands. Some of the things he wears are expensive, while other times he wears H&M. He’s not the type to flaunt his wealth.

To be honest, I don’t even know why I like him. I think the main reason is that I’m most attracted to his looks—he’s tall and handsome.
My father accumulated hundreds of millions of yen in gambling debt, and I watched my mother pay it all back, so I have nothing but a negative image of gambling. I want him to quit, but I’m not his girlfriend, and when he says he does it because he has nothing to lose, I find it hard to tell him to stop.
If someone has enough money, is it okay for them to gamble? Could gambling change or warp someone’s personality?
Should I stop myself from falling for a man who gambles?
I’d appreciate your advice.
