We are having a crisis in my home. My (Chinese) wife is a gambling addict. Not a joke and not to be funny. I have been married to her almost 17 years and she has always gambled, but her gambling was of the majiang variety with her girlfriends back in the early years of our relationship. But she has also been to Macau numerous times. She even went to Zambia in Africa and I followed her all the way there and she was gambling again in the local casino.
Now she is addicted to a website where she plays live Baccarat online. She is like a crackhead on this shit (again, not an exaggeration). She will play up to 16 hours a day on it. The other night, I get up at 3 am to use the bathroom and she is in there still and has been in there for at least eight hours.
I have tried to talk to her and consul her on this. She doesn’t listen to me. She will even claim she isn’t gambling while she is gambling. Today her stepson Weixin messaged me if she was home. Her stepson and myself are supporting her basically since she doesn’t work now nor will she look for a job! She is a “businesswoman”. She did well back in the 00’s but hasn’t done anything for several years and I really don’t know how she gets money.
I am making her sound bad and she isn’t. She is addicted to this shit. I don’t want to divorce her, again been married to her a long time. I have had my problems with drink and crazy behavior and she was the responsible one who told me to cut it out or else (still drink but my “cowboy behavior” is much less than before).
Ok. I want to report to the police, the “internet police” about this website and see if they can block it. I mean, China blocks so many websites and gambling is illegal. Gambling online is illegal in the USA much less China. If these websites were done away with, a lot of the problem would go away, perhaps. Even if it doesn’t, it is still illegal.
So which police agency would I contact about this? We are sort of at the end of our rope. Maybe some of you have seen a show called “Intervention” where a freak does dope or drinks a gallon of Vodka a day and gets talked into treatment. Or something.
I want to move back to America next year and want her with me. But not gambling for fuck sake.
Probably not an answer, but alerting the authorities about this would be a start. You would think with such a strict internet monitoring force this shit would be gone already or someone is a bagman for this.
Big Brother, need your Authoritarian hand. People ask me what it is like living in China. Well, it’s like living in your parents house and you follow their rules and Xi Jinping is Dad. And my wife needs to be beaten with a belt.
Hi guys, my name is Michael.
I'm in HZ for a few weeks and looking to meet some new friends.
A little about me; I'm originally from the UK but I live in the USA right now and am just finishing my PhD at UC San Diego. Just say hi if you'd like to know more.
Take care!
The gay foreign community is a bit diminished. It was huge back in 2009,2010,2011, but now mostly are professionals that either moved to Shanghai, Guangzhou, etc. Also, the community is a bit older from last I saw.
You can download Blued, but that is more of a Chinese hookup app, if you don't know Chinese then its not worth it. Easiest to just find an "in" person and get into that community.
