...if you've been dating someone who seems really great. Everything clicks, you've got a lot in common, have the same sense of humor, and you think you might be falling for this one.....
and then during a light-hearted conversation about favorite bands, they drop this bombshell..
"Oh I love listening to this band when I'm baked. Yeah..btw, I occasionally smoke a little pot. Just to help with the pain though."

What the Hell???

Don't smoke it around me. I can't handle it anymore.

I look at pot no more harmful than liquor

Some people have very bad reactions to pot, alot worse than liquor.

you either accept or or move on it's your choice

I don't care for pot...it would be a deal breaker for me

If its a deal breaker, its a deal breaker. You can't change someone.

you have to either accept it or not. depends on you're preferences.

It wouldn't be a big deal to me. But to some people it is

then you got to have EVERYTHING in common .that parts to

It smells nasty to me. People put "non smokers only" all the time in their ads.

Pot is a lot nastier. I kind of like the smell of cigarette, but pot has this super-sweet smell that follows you to the point where you start feeling sort of sickness.

It is amazingly stinky, meaning potent. I once had a friend who forgot a tiny little bit of afghani at my place. I was crazy for a month trying to find the stupid grass crap. It filled the whole house with it's smell, even though whatever he forgot was in a plastic bag and inside a pill container.

Bad stuff.

They are letting you know them a little bit more about them. I quit in my early 20's so, I'm not an advocate for it or, against it. Personally however, I would not want to date a man that use's it. I don't want any drug's in or, near my life.

I guess I'm just feeling kinda disappointed tonight and needed to vent a little.
I met a guy, I really liked him, and then found out that he enjoys doing something that I'm very much against.

More than likely I'll be moving on. In the meantime, I've got the "What the Hell?" going on right now.


(edited to add: Thanks to all who've responded so far. I appreciate the input! It helps confirm the choice to move on. )

at least he's not a killer, or a pedophile, or a scammer

he just enjoys an intoxicant that you disapprove of

I agree it still to hard of sentences. If it was a $20.00 fine I wouldn't care.

End of relationship.
In my profession I don't date these three things
Anyone that is involved with Drugs or booze.
Anyone that has been charge and convicted of a D.V.
Anyone that is a convicted felon.

Those are absolute deal breakers for me I have no choice in the matter.

ive personally never smoked it, but have friends who do. its not something im interested in but feel that its thier buisness not mine. nobodys a perfect match, but if your 100% anti pot? then i guess your choice is clear for you :) talk it over with them first tho and let them know why! least thats my advice

I have zero tolerance for being around anyone who uses any type of illegal drug, or who abuses any legal legal ones.

Good advice, thank you.

A social drinker doesn't bother me, I like to have a glass now & then. But the others..yeah, I'm with you on those.
