It's hardly a healthy relationship with mutual respect both ways if your partner is complaining about your lifestyle. I ain't changing my ways for nobody.Quote:

Thanks angry nomad....you make a lot of sense. I guess with me and maybe others too who dont smoke...dont like the idea of it being on a par with being addicted to alcahol....like they cant have a good time or even function without it. The idea for us non smokers having sex with partners who have to be high first is a bit insulting/hurtful..surely we are enough, cos unlike video games, books etc it IS mind altering and thats the reason I wont take it as a pain killer unless maybe if it was made legal (dont like the idea of breaking the law either) I think what upsets non smoker partners, maybe that once they are high nothing matters much anymore...including us. I`m really glad to be able to talk to the likes of you and Mathias and have a "real" discussion about this. thanks.

I think you think all who smoke pot are addicts shyboots. Some of us are, most of us aren't. Some people use it as a crutch to deal with day to day life, others use it as a spiritual guide, others use it to have a good time with friends, others use it to help them feel better (pain, nausea, ect ect). As far as I'm concerned no one has the right to tell anyone else what to do or how to live their lives. Sure you may be dedicated to the thought that its evil, as most are, and you seem to have some basis in your beliefs coming from your husband. But I have to ask you how you can form an informed / intelligent opinion on something you've never tried? No your observations of 1 persons reaction to the drug does not count as being informed. We are our own people.
Some laws should be broken in my opinion. When a law encroaches on the rights of an individual to live their life in the way that they see fit (assuming that said life style does not inflict undue pain or suffering on those around said person) then that law is total garbage.
Angry Nomad: "Also, you cannot overdose from it. Try and kill yourself by overdosing on weed. It's literally impossible."
I disagree. I have overdosed on weed a number of times. When I smoke too much of too potent weed, I get a terrible dizziness (like the room is spinning), nausia, and continuous vomiting for up to 24hours. That is one HELL of a bad ordeal when I cannot even drink a little fluid without throwing it up. That is my body noticing too much of something in me, so it thinks it can get rid of the excess by vomiting. So I am very careful to not overdose.
Shyboots, the fact your hubby smokes hash a couple of times a day (every day?) and that he smokes enough to make his eyes red and slurred speech sounds excessive to me. Sorry.
Anything can become addictive to someone (coffee, TV, music, sex, etc), but that is just a negative word to use to describe someone's likes and habits. I've been smoking pot in moderation for 35 years. I smoke only once a day, just a couple of tokes (now) of my superpotent SuperSkunk, and I skip a day or two each week. My wife is not thrilled about it, but it is not an issue since I give her as much attention as she wants. Pot helps to relieve the boredom of going shopping with her.
Does your husband spend much to support his twice daily hash habbit?
He used to smoke a lot more and has smoked since he was 18, he smokes about a quarter of an ounce a week, maybe a bit less as its hard to get lately. He usually has one single skinner (small roll up) in the morning then one or two at night while watching tv and misses the odd day depending whats on. He adores me and is a wonderful attentive husband, and to be honest he doesnt slur often but it always did make his eyes red. You see we were together 16yrs ago but he used way too much of it then and drank too much too, we had a son but eventually split up only getting back together earlier this year..... he rarely drinks now and doesnt do any of the hard drugs he took recreationally when we were younger so I`m happy enough. Do you find some people get red eyes much easier than others??
Shyboots, sounds like it is not a problem. He smokes a lot more than I do. One quarter oz/week = 13 oz/year. Over the past 5 years I have been averaging 5 oz/year, but that is now cut in half since I havested my SuperSkunk! I could get sickly overdosed on over 2 TOKES!
Everybody is different about the red eyes. Good to hear he adores you and is wonderfully attentive. Good he rarely drinks, I never drink and I never even tried hard drugs, just some acid during the 1970s.
He just smokes regular stuff....I have heard of that superskunk...mega strong isnt it?? So wouldnt need nearly as much, hubby is a worrier and a bit of a perfectionist so he says he smokes a couple of times a day to "turn down the volume on the stress buttons" lol Plus dont you build a kind of tolerance to it? Nice talking to you anway. :-)
Damn I couldnt read the whole thread but why dont girls write threads like
