Lost a good friend over weed
Last year when I started college, I met a really good friend, C. Me and C would chill all the time and blaze up until about Christmas this year. At that point, he stopped talking to me me completely, and I was baffled by it. He started hanging out with a completely new group of friends. I thought it was because of lacrosse season, but then I heard friends of mine telling me that he stopped talking to me because I smoked weed, and he stopped. I have asked him about it a couple times and he's beaten around the bush and said things like "It's not a big deal" or "It's just not what I want to be doing right now".
I totally respect if he wanted to stop smoking, but I have no idea why we stopped being friends. In the past few months, I've tried extra hard to be nice to him whenever I see him and avoid talking about weed completely. I ask if he wants to hang out and he just says he's busy every single time. He just shrugs me off and says the minimum amount of things he has to say. I really want to yell at him, but I just stay calm and act like it's cool.
Overall I'm just really mad/sad about it. I know for sure that weed is the only reason he doesn't like me anymore, but I'm willing to hang out with him and not smoke and do other things. Another good friend of mine, N, recently started a long tolerance break and told C that he quit. C had also been ignoring N in the last few months because he smokes too, but all of a sudden since he heard he quit, he started being all buddy-buddy with him again. I'm going to confront him the next chance I get once and for all and settle it though, I need to know what the deal is with him or else move on.
Nothing life changing, but it pisses me off, he was a good friend of mine. Has anyone else has similar experiences where someone changed their view of weed forever and started giving you the cold shoulder?
