Smoking alone

I've been smoking regularly for a few months and I've realized, after experimenting a bit, that I really prefer to be alone when I'm high.
The first 10 or so times I smoked I was with people, and I enjoyed it...but then I started buying my own, and smoking it by myself. I wasn't sure if it was really better, but then I tried smoking with friends again and really didn't enjoy myself. On friday, I met up with a few girls who I didn't really know, one of which was a girl I'm kind of interested in, and had a couple of bowls of her VERY good stuff, had me tripping. But I found myself completely uninterested in their conversation, and had no desire to engage myself in whatever discussion was going on (don't really remember - like I said, I was ripped). Anyway, I can socialize and enjoy myself just fine when sober, but when I'm high...I want to be alone.
Anybody else feel this way?

I can understand that. Being alone gives me a chance to really make the most of my high, doing whatever I want to. I can sit back and enjoy the ride.

Being with people is fun also, it's just two different type of experiences.

I'm very selective in who I smoke with. If I smoke with you, consider yourself lucky. I only smoke with 2 people, both of them are really close friends.

Both of my close friends, I'm very relaxed around both before and after lighting up. I do find that I enjoy my high when I'm by myself as well. I play Counter Strike (which, naturally, I'm god-like after getting high), play puzzle games on the computer, watch TV, and eat.

I don't know which I prefer more. I tend to do both when I smoke. I smoke with either of my two friends, then after we eat and come home, I smoke more and do my thing. The nice thing about it is one of my friends is my roommate, or one of my roommates. So for the most part, he and I are always home, with the third person we split rent with, just chilling.

That sounds so arrogant but I know it's not ment to be. I can relate to what you're saying, especially being around a girl you're interested in. There's no reason to get 'really' high just perhaps try smoke a little less next time :) gratz on finding some chicks who blaze though.

I think I remember a bob marley interview where he was like how herb give you time to spend with yourself.

it took me a long time to realise that i really prefer to be alone when i smoke and to be sober or drunk when im around people.

i use time stoned like as my mental down time, where i can organise and file my thoughts and emotions, clear my mind and expand it and to generally keep my mental well being together.

i think the first times you get stoned and are all laughy and high is really fun and there are a few people it will always be like that with. but most of the time i would rather be razor sharp around people as i am alot more reactionary and focused.

i dont think theres anythin wrong with smoking on your own, its just you have to keep it in check and balanced.

peace

i like smokin with my friends and stuff but if id have to choose i like smoking alone better. never waiting for the bowl, got all the food to yourself and u can listen to the music you want to choose:hippy:

Funny, I'm the exact opposite. I can't stand being alone when I'm high, I always smoke with people but even when I get home early and I'm still high I have to call someone or something.

I really dont mind either way...as long as i get to smoke im happy
