advice please. Can he quit?

I feel for you FunkyMonkey

Me and my bf have serious issues, and now we have both realized the wrong we've done to each other, so now we are in the process of making it work

You said it best

Love/Relationships are like an infant

If you don't take care of it, it will die

Lou, I'm old enough to be your mom, if not your granny. Cannabis rarely affects the libido in a negative fashion. Most people get horny, to put it bluntly. Actually, tobacco is much more of a problem in that department. Tobacco reduces the level of male hormones, causes impotence and lowers the sex drive. Read it for yourself!

Another thing is to tell him to get sativas, not indicas (which are the more common variety). Sativas have a more energetic high, while indicas make you want to watch TV (or sleep). Sweetie, he will NOT give up pot, not even for you! I've been trying to get my man to quit tobacco for 40 years! He doesn't smoke 2 packs a day like he used to, but he still smokes. You might want to try smoking pot (my observation is that user/nonuser relationships do not last-sorry). It has been shown to take care of monthly cramps- for that alone, it should be legal! You say you didn't get much of an effect when you tried it. That is fairly common. Give it a try again. Since you have the will power to quit tobacco, if you decide you don't like pot, you can quit. Pot is FAR less addicting than tobacco. Now, run along, get stoned and go dancing with him and have a nice time. :thumbsup:

Also, on the subject of getting him a sativa strain, a vaporizer would help as well. The other chemicals that are left in the vaporized marijuana tend to be the source of dreamy, lazy highs, while the vaporized onces (mainly thc) tend to be the more uplifting. It would go well with the plan to change his strain.
Good luck.

I used to be a complete fucking bum. I dropped out of school, I woke up later and later every day, I lost half my friends and almost a year of education. BUT I changed my life because I WANTED to. He has to WANT to, not just think quitting will change his life. Because now, I've made up all my school work and my life is completely on track agian (obviously JUST school didn't fix it but rather everything that was making me feel negative). Yet in the midst of the success I still smoke pot, more then ever.

I ve been bonging for 15+ years, my girl haas been with me for 10 of those years ,somtimes she gets pissed if im too wasted so i agree to chill on those days .But she accepts my habit mostly and lets me bong on . I have friends who have to hide it frm their gf cause they hate it so much,guess im lucky to have an understanding girl.

go away somewhere where he will be active and busy but not be able to smoke. A break from weed would probably help him get everything in perspective, especially if hes bored and fed up.

Are you sure he is 100% comfortable with you being around him while he is high?

You say his girlfriends in the past gave him a hard time about it? If a smoker gets bad vibes from non high people when he/she is high, sometimes that can make them uncomfortable around non high people. There might be leftovers in his subconscious that send him the message "don't get high in front of the GF!".

Even though he knows you are ok with it, the subconscious is a powerfull thing. He might just be feeling awkward because he knows he is high and you are not. He might be thinking things like "she is pist or disappointed in me". Even if he doesn't admit it, these feelings could be happening.

I know when I am high and around people who had a problem with weed in the past, (like bosses), and I am around new people who don't mind (like my new boss), I still get that leftoever feeling of "Are they pissed at me?"

It is not always rational, but when your high, rationality takes a back seat to emotions. Sometimes this creates paranoia. I blame the Governments of the countries that made marijuana illegal. It created a whole stigma.

Nope. You can never quit. Marijuana is more addictive than cocaine and heroin put together, or as I like to call it, coceroin.

You are genius, Graph. Please may I signature-quote you? See how nice it looks!

Of course he can quit. Cannabis doesn't build a physical dependence, so he's not going to get sick from quitting. He may be a little irritable and have some sleepless nights, but he should be fine. In other words, he will quit on his own if he feels it is worth it.

I love a doobie last thing at night. It cosifies the world, and makes me feel all swirly.
