Howdy blades, Didn't really know where to put this, so i figured real life stories would be good enough. I've realized that a very large portion of my friendships revolve around drug use. It's been this way for quite some time but i really haven't thought about it too much. Just recently i've been thinking just how pathetic it really is. I mean, i don't even know how i would get along with certain people if we weren't stoned. And even in the very short time im with them without a bowl being passed around the ONLY thing we talk about are drugs, buying, selling, smoking, tripping, drinking, popping, i don't give a shit what it is. I can't even bring up buying a piece of property to some guys without them asking if im going to setup a grow in my backyard. It's pretty fucking insane. Don't get me wrong, i love my drugs just as much as the next guy, but this is just getting a little out of hand. It's time to decide who my real, close friends are i guess. And weed (no pun intended) out the old ones. Anyone else in the same, sinking, boat?
Smoke weed, don't let it smoke you. But really, its gotta be something that you do, not something that controls your whole life. I smoke alot, but its definitely not in control
I know what you mean to an extent, but thats because my life is consumed with skateboarding, and I smoke a shit load of weed. So naturally those are the 2 things that are most interesting to me (other than stuff we can't talk about) and I talk mostly about that. And since my friends have similar interests, we talk about that. Unfortunately none of my friends are (not the right way to put it) smart enough or rather can't think deeply enough to talk about some of the stuff that also interests me, and the people who I can talk to other subjects about are good people, but fucking lames. As much fun as it is being all psychoanalytical and introspective, I like to get high and talk about drugs
Make effort to steer the conversation in other directions yourself...if you need to point it out just say "Hey, not everything we talk about needs to be this...", and if they can't hold an actual conversation with you, just about, life 'n shit, well then I'd question if I wanted them around in the first place, some people just fall into comfort zone for hanging out with but there can be little more to it than that.
pretty much the same way i really dont care though. like me and my friend today got high and just talked about our shrooms trips and rolls and shit lol. drugs are a big part of my life, so why not talk about them with people that have similar interests?
It's just a hobby, especially weed. But my friends and I also talk about music a lot. Drugs and music are a good combination. I'm not ashamed to enjoy what I do. But I realized what you're saying about my friends too. Whatever, I'm not going to talk about or do lame things like church or vegetarianism or horses to make myself feel like a better person good thread
