Default Smoking weed...seen as good or bad?

Well someone brought this up in the cigarrette thread and I decided to make a thread about this. What are girls opinion's on marijuana? What about other drugs (pills and shit)? I know it depends on the person, but I was just curious on average.

i personally have a bit of a thing against it, pills too. couldn't tell you why, and it's pretty much just my own personal neurosis. most of my friends are into it and they're all preppy white girls. ;)

since i've been following the smoking thread pretty closely i'll just say i have no problem with it, but my ex did and she was a real bitch about it. Although she was the preppy white chick they were talking about, not too sure about black chicks tho

Personally, I think it's a huge plus if a guy smokes weed. That means that he can't judge me for being a stoner. It's also super awesome to get high and then have sex.

But...There almost seems to be two types of people (in Canada anyway, lol): people who smoke weed and people who are against it. There's not much in between. Because even if a person isn't against weed, they don't usually want to hang out with people who are getting high.

Pills and shit I'm more careful about. I don't care if a guy does harder stuff, but I would be hesitant to enter a relationship with him. So in general, I see guys who do harder drugs as more of party companions/fuck buddies.

I love it how smoking legal tobacco is a huge turnoff, yet smoking illegal weed is a plus. How can you be against one but not the other? What consenting adults do behind closed doors doesn't bother me, but hypocrisy sure does.

Here's my take on it:

I, personally, enjoy drugs. I fucking love opiates, painkillers, and if heroin ever comes my way, I'll have no qualms about trying it.

Since I'm on break from college, I smoke weed pretty regularly, and occasionally do coke when I'm partying.

Since I don't know anyone on this forum and can hide behind the anonymity of the internet, I'm pretty open about it because I don't have to worry about the social stigma that comes with drug use.

In real life, however, I'm a very clean-cut person and nobody other than close friends and people that I party with know this side of me. I hate the druggie steriotype, and most of the people I know who do drugs seem to embrace it. I am not attracted to these kinds of people, and would never date a "druggie" girl. However, if I ever come across a professional-oriented type girl who secretly likes to pop pills on the side and stealth smoke, I could see us getting along nicely.

^^^You can be against one and not the other because they're completely different things.

I'm against cigarettes because they kill millions a year. Because they're addictive and cancerous. And lastly, because they smell nasty.

I'm for weed because it's a good way to have fun and relax with little to no impact on your health. And it kills zero people a year.

Really depends on location, person, all that jazz.
Personally, I'd rather be with someone who smokes weed than someone who doesn't. If they are using hard drugs, I'm a bit more cautious, but psychedelics are OK in my book.

They're different.

Even though cigarettes are legal, they are addictive and make the person smell bad.

Marijuana on the other hand, although could be considered addictive, they don't make you smell bad.

Weed smell goes away VERY easily, where as cigarette smell does not.

I know I'd never date a girl whom habitually smoked cigarettes, now if she smokes when she's drunk or drinking, that'd be fine by me... but other then that, it'd be a deal breaker.

Now if a girl smoked weed, I'd have no qualms about it.

Yes, I agree. Moderation, I guess, is the key. To whoever asked, there is a big difference between cigarette smoking and weed. Cigarettes generally indicate an addiction, and are harmful and just plain flat-out STINK. Weed, on the other hand, is not nearly as addictive. It is something you can do, on occasion, to relax and have fun. Not to mention, weed-smokers generally do their best to cover up the smoke smell, whereas cigarette smokers don't ever really care.

Personally i shoot opiates (roxicodone, oxy) all the time. I have quit smoking weed every day (i maybe smoke once or twice a week) and i dont drink that much. But everyone that knows me thinks im a straight edge guy, not some druggie that shoots roxicodone every day. The only person that knows i IV is me and i like to keep it that way...

And i would NEVER let some bitch tell me what i can and cannot put in my body, if it came down to choosing a bitch or the drugs i would def. choose the drugs!!!!!

Weed is in no way physically addicting. Maybe mentally. But, I could be mentally addicted to candy, or ice cream. So, in other words, weed is no more addictive than a Butterfinger.

I don't give a fuck one way or the other. If she doesn't want me smoking/drinking/whatever around her then it's cool. But no one fucking tells me what substances I can put into my body and if they show up randomly and find me sitting at my table doing something it's her fault.

My current girlfriend smokes some weed with me on occasion and doesn't care what else I'm doing as long as I'm not strung out. She doesn't like to hang out with me when I'm on the nod, which is totally understandable.

I really can't see ANY drug as a deal maker or breaker. Well, except for meth, I wouldn't date a tweaker.

She can get high all she wants, but it's the company that would worry me.

Weed makes me want to fuck shit. Does the same to her. She can do any drug she likes as long as A. If it starts getting bad she comes to ME. B. I like the people she's doing it with or it's me.

But overall, it's just easier on a relationship to keep drugs out of it. Of course I have my little rule of shrooms and weed being excluded :)

How does this change your life? If you're a smoker, are you going to give it up because 10 people on a message board said they won't date you? Big deal, 30% of the population smokes, you can get with those 30%, or you can find someone in the 70% who doesn't care about your habit. The important this is, DO WHAT YOU WANT.

NEVER, and I mean EVER let a guy or girl change your mind about something. If you like your hair bald and a goatee on your face, don't ask us if we like it. Do it if you want to do it. Don't stop smoking weed for girls. Stop for yourself, or do it for yourself.

Jesus, how many times must we repeat the basics? BE YOURSELF. GO AFTER GIRLS WHO LIKE YOU FOR YOURSELF.

Next thing you know, we'll have white boys painting their faces black to impress chicks with their 12" cocks. Point is, the truth eventually gets out. It's at that time you wish you'd have been honest from the beginning, or else a long relationship is over.

If you did some actual research, instead of the shit that freevibe and abovetheinfluence tried to feed us, you will learn there are actually MANY health benefits of marijuana.

There is alot of good information here about the health benefits of marijuana, expecially by robinhoody (last post on first page) https://www.totse.com/community/showthread.php?t=2035931

But while im here, I might as well contribute to the topic question. I actually like it if a girl smokes pot. My current girlfriend used to be an absolute hardcore straightedge, and I have always been a user of many different drugs. This caused alot of problems for the first few months of our relationship. Eventually she wanted to try some drug to better understand me. Now she is an everyday pot smoker, uses opiates, amphetamines, and does dozens of other drugs at a lesser frequency. I can honestly say that her adaptation to my lifestyle has only brought us closer.

Default Re: Smoking weed...seen as good or bad?

What I do is I see how the person is, whether they do drugs or not. Some people who drugs are cool, some are bitches, I find both in every clique. So does a drug user get a plus in my book? Probably, just because I am also a drug user and have dated drug users.

But personally, when it comes down to it, they have to be right for me, and that has nothing to do with the drugs themselves, it's how the act (which is affected by drugs in a way). In the same way, if they can't control themselves with their drugs, I most likely won't be involved with them. But that has something to do with their personality and how they are, so again, I have to look at that.

In university I found that doing drugs definitely cut out a portion of the female population, but it opened up a whole new one, one that was much more enjoyable to be with. Many of the young girls I know who don't even trust weed are very stuck-up (or at least naive/ignorant). Many of these girls would drink, they just don't understand what they are putting into their body. Seeing as common sense (and intelligence in general) is very desirable to me, I see the girls that are educated about their drug use to be quite interesting.

Just because this pisses me off...weed is not involved in zero deaths a year. Somebody got in a car crash or an industrial accident that wouldn't have happened. Depending on what specifically your measuring weed has caused the death of a few people. If you count drunk driving deaths for alcohol, then you gotta count stoned driving. Like it or not, some people just can't drive that well high (like me). I know its there fault for driving while fucked up, but that's still a marijuana related death.

It depends on how often he does it. If he gets high 24/7 and chooses weed over me most of the time, I won't be okay with it. But if he just does it a few times, just for fun at a party or something, I don't care.

I hate drugs. I can't grasp the concept of why people fool and take the chance with something that could kill you or severely damage you. They are so high priced compared to what they offer you - why spend so much money on something that only gives you a high/trip/whatever for a couple hours? There are plenty of other ways to have real fun.

They're illegal for a reason, and to the guy who said, "cigarettes kill millions a year, pot kills zero." Pot may not kill the user, but what about all the other people around the user that get killed in a car crash because of the effects of the drug?

Back to the subject, girl+smoking= HUGE bonus point.

Spoken like someone who's obviously never done drugs, and is probably too young to understand certain things.

First off, I tell you grapes are good. You say grapes are bad. I ask if you have ever tried a grape, you say no. How can you know that grapes are bad if you haven't tried one?

Drugs can be safe and fun, just like a movie (which you spend money on) in fact.. every entertainment you spend money. Drugs you might even spend less. And some can last for days. You have no respect for what they are capable of, just fear. Your lack of education on the subject is what's holding you back.

If someone does drugs, that is their choice. If someone chooses to not eat meat, again, their choice. So as long as we're not in your face, get out of ours okay? And while you're at it, do some research before you start blanketing all drugs like that. Would you restrict morphine to a dying man? Neither would I. But morphine and heroin are the same thing, one just metabolizes faster. So... would you advocate heroin? Of course not, because heroin is bad, and morphine is good. That's what they teach in CSI right? Please. You put drugs into your body everyday, yet you're bold enough to draw a line of good and bad just because the government tells you it's illegal and you have to? Educate yourself, it's what seperates us from the animals.

*sigh*

I used to feel somewhat like that, only I knew pot couldn't kill you.Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Then, I actually TRIED it, and saw it was kind of cool. I don't do it all the time, but once in a while is nice. I suggest that you try it before condemning all pot-smokers to eternal damnation. Who knows? You may even end up liking it.

And although the high only lasts for a couple of hours, you FEEL it for a number of days afterwards, and I found that feeling to be more pleasant than the actual high itself.

Actually, I agree. I really, really, really suck at driving high. I get paranoid, and the paranoia distracts me, as do the lights and the fact that I am analyzing everything around me. I'm very lucky not to have been arrested for driving erratically/illegally.

The mental addiction to pot is the thing that scares me, because I myself went through it. It became a friend of mine, and that's sad. Fuck, I didn't even smoke that much. For me, it was that I knew I couldn't make sense of or enjoy sober-me as much as I could enjoy high-me, and that's no way to live life. But I guess all people are different.

It would be a turn off for me because it would remind me of myself and what happened to me.

They are so high priced compared to what they offer you - why spend so much money on something that only gives you a high/trip/whatever for a couple hours?


im fine with/like it
and a good hit of acid will keep u tripping for 8-10 hours for 10-15 dollars and depending on who u know even less money

[Drugs] are so high priced.

You're buying from the wrong dealers, that's why you hate drugs/think they're highly priced. I get my drugs cheap!

Pot may not kill the user, but what about all the other people around the user that get killed in a car crash because of the effects of the drug?

And just what the fuck is that supposed to mean? Are you seriously trying to say that marijuana causes people to get in wrecks, but doesn't kill them, only hurts the people around them? You're a moron. Marijuana is perfectly motherfucking safe.

It goes like if someone smokes weed, they like it if the other person smokes too. If they don't smoke weed then they usually look down on it or maybe don't care if it's a once in a while/party thing. I used to smoke but kind of grew out of liking it so I don't care really or not if the girl smokes or does other drugs as long as she's not a total fuck up about it and spends all her money and time trying to get high. If the girl does drugs though its a plus cause she's likely not going to care if I get wasted.

Several studies have shown that marijuana does cause any discernable impairment to driving skills (when using traditional driving tests). Now that's not to say that it doesn't affect your driving at all, but if it's not enough to show up on an impaired driving test, then it's really nothing to worry about. In my expert opinion, it's not any worse (and probably better) than driving if you're tired, which everyone does at one point or another.

I don't know a single person who drives worse when they're high (including myself) and I know several who actually drive better, because they're more careful when they're high.

And yes, I'm too lazy to find sources for those studies.

I love how people say drugs are high priced. A decent deal for a gram of some badass weed is 10 bucks. If your new to smoking then a half gram will keep you high for atleast a couple hours.

So maybe 2.50 an hour. Cheaper than bowling. Cheaper than going to the movies. Cheaper than going ice skating. Cheaper than eating at McDonalds. The list goes on forever.

BTW, I drive alot worse when I'm high. I only did it once and I'm not doing it again. Not everybody can drive just as well high. If you smoke everyday, then its not gonna be a problem. If you smoke once a week or so, then its a bit harder to drive while your stoned. If your marijuana is good enough, and your tolerance is low enough, then you won't be able to drive for shit. Think about the first time you got blazed as all hell. One time I almost passed out and fell out of my chair taking a bong hit. I don't think I could drive very well if someone put me in a car.

I'm eighteen, so I'm not "too young to understand things." You are comparing apples and oranges, and it's not working. I wasn't attacking anyone, I was just stating my view on things like every other person in this thread. Maybe you're the one with the insecurity problem if you take offensive to someone not having the same outlook on life that you do. I didn't say I hated the people that do drugs because saying that would make me a very ignorant and close minded person. All I clearly said was I hate drugs and listed my reasons why.

18 years old is young...Trust me on this.

Well, I smoke everyday so I guess that's why. Once you get used to it though, it's easy. And I'm pretty sure anyone could get used to driving while stoned. But yeah, if you're completely baked and not used to driving high, then it's not the best idea...But I have faith that most of my fellow stoners aren't that retarded, lol.

Why do you smoke? I mean, what part of it attracts you? I've always wondered how other people perceive it.

Just ask people why they smoke in BLTC. Make a thread, tell them you don't know why people smoke, and about 20 or 30 stoners will tell you good reasons too

That is a good question. When I first started smoking, it was because of how much I laughed. When I really got into it, it was because it numbed my existence. Worked for a few years, now I think its fucking me up.

Driving while stoned is all about practice. No one can drive while high at first. You get better at it though.

I smoke because it's fun...lol

For a more in depth answer: I started when I was 15. Weed opened up this magical new world to me. Everything was funnier, I was happier, everything sparkled. It was amazing. But...over the past 5 years it turned into a daily habit. And while I still enjoy it, that initial magic is has long since past. Now I do it because getting high and watching TV is slighly less boring than just watching TV. It's still fun, but the main reason I do it because there's nothing better to do.

I need to quit for a month or two. That's the only way to get some of the magic back.

I quit in May. Got pissed off at my dealer, so I can't get weed till school starts back. The good side, its easy to be sober in the summer, I saved a bunch of cash, and I'm gonna be able to get high twice on the same bowl again. Smoking every day is boring. I think a couple times a week is good enough.

Omg, yeah! I just realised that right now would be the perfect time to quit for me. I just finished my weed today, and I was going to buy a half tomorrow...But I'm going to Shambhala so if I quit now, I'll have more money and I'll get higher when I'm there! Yay!!!

If you did some actual research, instead of the shit that freevibe and abovetheinfluence tried to feed us, you will learn there are actually MANY health benefits of marijuana.

There is alot of good information here about the health benefits of marijuana, expecially by robinhoody (last post on first page) https://www.totse.com/community/showthread.php?t=2035931

But while im here, I might as well contribute to the topic question. I actually like it if a girl smokes pot. My current girlfriend used to be an absolute hardcore straightedge, and I have always been a user of many different drugs. This caused alot of problems for the first few months of our relationship. Eventually she wanted to try some drug to better understand me. Now she is an everyday pot smoker, uses opiates, amphetamines, and does dozens of other drugs at a lesser frequency. I can honestly say that her adaptation to my lifestyle has only brought us closer.

Yeh i know there are but theres still many negatives, i smoke weed but i'm sick of all the idiots going on about how it's wonderful and theres nothing bad about it.

Smoking weed is good, as long as he's not high round the clock. Drinking I'm more against for reasons I don't even know. Pills I think are ridiculous, coke and Ecstacy are ehh, and I'm fine with things like acid and shrooms.

I have weird opinions on this.

well I was an actual stoner for such a long time. I also did shrooms, e, coke, salvia, opiates, etc...I grew out of it all though...

I would not want anything to do with a girl that smokes weed or does any oher drug for that matter. I also would want nothing to do with someone who doesn't use drugs, but they hang around with some little drug posse and think it makes them hard and cool.

To me the whole street drug fascination is probably one of the worst signs of immaturity. Really, nothing is a bigger turnoff. Oh I'm a guy by the way and it looks absolutely disgusting on girls, wow.

Smoking cigarettes is pretty gross too (especially on girls) but I'd tolerate it for awhile I guess. Drinking? no problems at all as long as she doesn't drink like a fucking dog.

I'm for weed because it's a good way to have fun and relax with little to no impact on your health. And it kills zero people a year.


This is how druggies always react. The funny thing is that you are constantly bitching about drugs being misrepresented in the media and they condemn joe public for swallowing it, but you have allowed yourselves to get far more brainwashed about drugs than anyone.

I agree. Yeah, I used to be a TOTAL pothead (as in, nearly every day, as long as my highschool-ass could afford it). Hell, I STILL toke once in a great while. But there's a lot more to life than pot. Also, as an experienced smoker of pot AND cigarettes, I can tell you that pot wrecks your respiratory system too. It's a lot like having a REALLY fucking long allergy season sometimes. :( Also, weed may not be addictive like cigarettes, but it can be VERY habit forming, especially if you're young and have no self control like a lot of highschool stoners I've known. Basically, I agree with shadow operative.


Myself, I don't really talk about my history with it unless they ask, but I find honesty tends to be the best policy (as long as you can be honest SAFELY. ;) As in, don't tell her if she's a complete blabbermouth). I wouldn't really want to date a girl I smoked with though, because weed (like most material things) is great at ruining relationships sometimes.

I agree. Marijuana gives you brain damage, lung cancer, and makes darkies attack our white women.
