I too prefer, and think its much easier, to just stick to yourself, but I enjoy a good gathering as much as the next guy. What sucks is that you can't be comfortable smoking around your wife. Mine doesn't smoke, but thats a good thing most of the time. Think about it, you can hang on to your stash longer if its just you. Craigslist is a godsend. Not to overstep any boundaries here, but you may want to explain how important it is to you and that you'd prefer not to have to reach out to strangers to get human interaction while you're stoned. I've had that talk and explained how its much more dangerous and limits the relationship. Much to my suprise, this even worked for growing, bringing up budget concerns and "the search" being extremely unpredictable and at times dangerous...this just worked for me, I'm 30 and have been around bars and music since I was 16...so I've kinda gotten to be a recluse...I talk too much about politics too, so its hard for me to find people who are interested in listening after 5-10 minutes...thats why I type in these forums! gotta let it out...:jointsmile:
