Dating a Marijuana Smoker?

I chose option C, It's a minor drawback but it wouldn't really stop me. I figure I smoke cigarettes and I keep a fully stocked bar, so why not. I haven't smoked weed since college, but I don't care if others do. The thing is, it is still illegal, so I don't want it in my home. So I would date someone who smokes weed, but I would set ground rules right up front.

 

I really would not mind either way. I don't smoke myself anymore, but as long as they don't make it their entire purpose for living, I'm all good with it fully and truly

 

another thing to consider. You can vape it, eat it and drink it. In the latter two, the 'disgusting' habit goes away from lack of smoke. Plus it is safer...and gets you a lot higher

Why is the law so important?

What if the law forbade homosexual relationships?

 

that's fair enough. I should say I am not promoting, rather trying to dispell some of the rumors. I like that you said in many cases and not ALL cases. Mine was experimental and I will say it did very many positive things for me.

So let me say aloud I am not suggesting others use it. I just felt there was some bad info out there. I obviously can't speak for anyone else and if a client comes to me to break a psychological addiction to marijuana I of course do all I can to help them. I will say though of the times I have used in my personal life it helped a lot with migraines. I looked back though and I don't think I was actually promoting it, rather trying to explain the other side. But I will bow out of the conversation.

But once again, I am not suggesting others use it, just playing devil's advocate

I won't say never but I highly highly doubt that I would ever date someone that puts marijuana in their bodies. I have nothing against anyone that does it but a relationship wouldn't work between me and someone that uses this type of drug

 

As long as it is used reasonably and not abused, it is a harmless plant.

 

I wouldn't mind dating a marijuana smoker at all -- he might share it with me! Moderation is key though, I don't want to end up taking care of his shit while he smokes all day.
I guess all good stuff requires a certain amount of self-restraint. Just as I wouldn't illegalise shitty food, I wouldn't illegalise marijuana and other drugs. There's a saying in Finnish which roughly translates to: "Don't fill your belly with sweets." I think it applies to drugs as well.

 

Never.

 

Why are you so intent on demonizing a substance and those who support the right to use it?

We all have a right to our opinion and you trying to guilt people into adopting your view of things, or at least quieting their view, doesn't strengthen your argument.

Do you have a valid point? sure, but in reality its a pretty weak one. If we got rid of or restricted heavily everything that gave a lot of people a bad life experience there would be nothing left in this world. Does that mean we should do away with all restrictions, of course not, we should be teaching moderation and responsibility.

Most of the people who have abused pot or where effected by someone who was abusing pot most likely wouldn't have been better off without pot because something else would have taken its place. We should be more focused on support and mental health services.

 

It's a bit of weed... chill...

 

I'm kind of surprised at the results of this poll.
Just as long as they don't blow smoke in my face, then I don't care. Or burps. I hate when people blow their smoke or their burps in my face.

 

It depends...if they cant hold a job because of the amount they smoke then that would definitally b a problem but if its just an occasional thing then i couldnt care less

 

Yeah, I would.

 

I don't have any issues with it when it comes to the law. People should be free to use it if they'd like, and it'd cut down a huge amount on drug trafficking.

My issue, and the reason why I couldn't, is that the smell literally makes me vomit. I tried weed a few times in high school, had really, really bad experiences (vomiting included), and just can't be around it.

That's why I wouldn't be able to date a marijuana smoker, lol.

 

I would.
But it'd only work if they didn't smoke near me as I can't stand the smell and don't appreciate second hand smoking of any kind.
It certainly wouldn't be a deal-breaker, though I would apreciate it a lot of they'd try to quit.
Edit. It's legal here and I'm assuming someone who uses it in moderation/doesn't let it affect his personality/behaviour.

 

Interesting, I love the smell of it. It smells better when it's still unused but the burnt smell isn't _that_ bad either, not as bad as tobacco anyway.

 

With all due respect, I haven't seen anyone promoting it here. What I have seen are many posts of people expressing their opinions in response to a serious, and valid, question.

 

I voted "don't care" because it's not something I think about.

I tried it a couple of times, when sitting in someone's living room and it was offered to me, and it had NO effect whatsoever. I was waiting for something to happen. And it didn't.

What cracks me up is when people need to do this prior to sex. It's almost ritualized. I've never understood how it would make the sex any different. Especially since I detected no effect when I tried it those few times.
