I've given up - a real test of willpower..

Discussion in 'Real Life Stories' started by G-MAN, Jan 7, 2005.

  1. I've really had some fun on these forums and have learnt a lot. It's time for me to move on though, although one day i will probs return.

    Today i made a promise to my mother to quit weed after she found my lighters and i admitted to her i smoke weed. She knew anyway apparently so she was glad i was honest with her.

    She is really anti-drugs, completely black and white about the subject. She wasn't willing to listen to my arguments for it even, but i don't mind, shes my mum..

    I just felt that to prove weed wasnt controlling me in anyway and that i wasnt in anyway addicted id say "if you want me to quit i will" and she asked if i would, and so i am. simple as. After the conversation i gave her my stash and ive promised to her i won't smoke until ive got my own place and ill never let it become between us.

    Anyway, id like to thank everyone on these forums for listening to my crap and teaching me some handy stuff.

    Farewell.
     
  2. The city is always here for you, good luck .
     
  3. thanks /\

    yeah just told my friends (the ones i smoke with) that i quit, they are all really supportive..

    god im gonna miss smoking weed.

    ill probs still be around them when they smoke so this could be very hard..

    thinking about it, ill still hang around here too, just cos i cant smoke doesnt mean i cant talk about it lol
     
  4. wow man, kudos with no limits. You've got some balls dude, not many people would do something like that. still come back once in a while though man, just cuz u dont smoke dosent mean your not welcome. once again dude, good luck. we need many more people in the world with respect like yours.

    best wishes

  7. Aww, too bad man, but I really respect that you did that. It takes a lot of class.

    Hopefully you'll stick around, and if not, take it easy.
     
  8. Im proud of you G-MAN.

    Stop by the city and say what up to the homies every now and then!
     
  9. Thank you all for your comments, its nice to hear.

    Yeah ill stick around.
     
  10. Yeah man, been there, done that. I quit for around 4 monthes, but now i realized that I wasn't addicted to it at all, there was no problem quitting... I only do it less then once a week now, and I dont smoke it, I eat cookies or somthing...
     
  11. farewell, we shall all miss you.
     
  12. Peace and Good Luck, see ya round.
     
  13. good luck man but...
    YOU'LL BE BACK!
    lol
     
  14. I take my hat off to you G-MAN.
     
  15. dude...that is so corny, of course she wants you to quit, she is apparently ignorant to your former choices. I apologize for this but i just pictured a naive helpless woman leaning on her counter with sobbing eye's halfy nodding up, taking advantage of your bitch like abiding habits by manipulating you with guilt trips of loyality and family wish's as to instil in your mind that marijuana use was even a problem to begin with, who's problem? not your's if you were a man to begin with...just my take on it, i have nothing against you personally.
     
  16. in a subtle, harsh way. that last guy is right. owned. summary? don't call it a problem if it's not. and make sure you're doing it for her. not because of her. if you know what i mean...think about it.
     
  17. I never said using weed was a problem, but she seems to think it is. I don't think i did a good of explaining my situation though.. But to put it simply my mum is worried for me and thinks that anyone who does weed ends up a heroin addict and thinks im on a bad road for fucking up my life (even though thus far (4 months i have been doing weed) its not got in the way of anything)..

    And yeah ive thought about it loads since and realised i can live without weed and that i am willing to pack it in for her. I don't resent her in anyway for it, infact i see it as a positive thing, a learning experience. I felt myself slipping a bit during the holidays and felt i was gonna smoke weed more than i really wanted and it would lose its edge and become a pointless thing, if you follow.

    Anyways thanks again for your comments.
