advice for friend

so anyway my best friend used to smoke a lot back in the day and he loved it and did it all the time, until one time he had a bac experience and thought he was gonna die and shit. so now he doesn't smoke anymore, he is literally afraid of it. after he quit i started smoking, and even though i smoke around him all the time, he wont do it. and i want to be able to share these experiences with my best bud ya know. so i was wondering if anyone had a good tip to get him to try it again, its just that im afraid that even if he does do it again, he is gonna flip out.

my best idea so far is for it to be just me and him in my room and blaze out and listen to some beatles or somethin (we are both really really into classic rock). hopefully him being in a comfortable environment with someone he knows well will be enough for him to snap out of it and realize that weed isn't going to kill him

I think it's a little bit harsh trying to force him to smoke again...

If you do try to though, just ask him to try a little bit like a couple of tokes or a small hit....yeah, just you and him and a relaxed atmosphere sounds good...lol

yea man, that's about the best that you can do.. you can't force anyone to like or accept cannabis but you can certainly try to make it the best experience for them. What you've described to me sounds like a "chillin'" evening... if it doesn't sit well with him in a relaxed and comfortable environment then it probably won't sit well with him anytime..

ive been in a similar situation and no, he's not gonna smoke again... he might or he might not, i really dont know. from my experience, my homeboy hasnt smoked in 4 yrs since his first time.
