I'm sorry to say it, but you have to have someone who believes in you. I think behind every successful man or woman there is often a supportive man or woman.
My exgf would tolerate me working any time I wanted, even if we had unexpected company or whatever. In the meantime I would make sure that work did not take over my life and that we went out when we should and took plenty of vacations. But if she wanted to go out, and I explained that I was bidding on something on ebay or whatever it may be, she would understand and go out alone or want to go out later.
If the person has objectuibs to gambling then it's a different issue but if you were doing this before they met you then they should accept it.
