It's really difficult to find a guy and I am sure the guys say the same thing, once we aren't spring chickens anymore. People get divorced or in my case, my husband died young. It's hard enough to find someone to date, and then you have to bring up the 420 topic. It's still looked down upon by a lot of people, in this day and age of recreational being legal. Looking for love online has made it easier than trying to get your friend to fix you up, or go to church or whatever they did in the days before the net. But it's a little difficult to put in your headline ":Looking for a stoner" I sure don't want to live the rest of my life alone. I wish there was a website "Stoner People Meet" instead of "Senior People Meet"
Maybe the jingle could go something like............ "You don't have to be loners at stoners only dot com"
I just recently witnessed my brother have to deal with this. If I knew any older ladies who "partook". It's true, after a certain age it's not just something your bf or gf does. So many misconceptions about getting high. That's a whole different thread. My opinion,advice or even dare if you want to approach it that way. Is to mention it IF it comes up. Be you the whole time and if you're out and want to smoke do it. Offer it. If you're at home and want to dab'a'do before you go out on a date or dinner etc. do it. If things are going good and you're feeling confident enough,which you should,let him/her know. Pretty much,don't censor yourself. Let you be what they like first and if not smoking is that crucial to their happiness and future and they could potentially ruin something great then obviously the match isnt there.
Outside of the internet.. I'd say hit up a local bar with people your age. Kind of hit or miss since, well it'd be a bar and bars aren't typically the place to go for finding that certain someone. A few years ago, when I was in my late 20's I made a post on Craigslist looking for 420 friends. Craigslist definitely is worse than going to a bar.. a lot of creepers on there, both men and women.. but I got an email from a woman who was mid 40's. Kind of funny cause her only response was "do you think it is wise to post this kind of stuff on the internet?" We got to chatting and she smoked, so we hooked up for awhile. There was too much of an age gap for her.. I wasn't much older than her daughter, so it wasn't going to last.. but it was a good time all around. Point is, don't give up. I went through countless responses until I found the right response.. and while you can never really tell who is lying on the internet, at least it gives you a better screening process. Plus.. people can lie just as easily in person.
I don't like to wait to bring it up. I don't like finding someone I like, then finding out he's really against canabis.I was in a 3 year relationship and this became a huge problem. I usually wait until a couple emails have passed and after the usual questions, I ask are you 420 friendly. Or I make first contact with people who just look like stoners. I hope more of the old fart will chime in and tell me if they found love late in life? Is that a different topic?
My last bf was 50 and I am 63. I guess age does not matter as long as we get along. I won't go higher than 66 because I am sorry to say that over that age, I have too much trouble finding someone who wants to stay fit.
Trainn, it's not letting me quote you. I hope you get notification on this thread. I would love to meet you and hang out. I go to Goonies every Wed. for the Geezer Jam. There are a lot of 420 friendly people there and we all smoke in the back where they have the covered smoking area.
I'm I'm the same boat, dating again at older age and I'm not telling anyone until I feel a real connection and even then it's iffy. We shall see. Good luck to you!
oh hell yeah. sounds legit. i was at goonies a few weekends ago. i was thinking about doing karaoke there because its one of the few places in town i've seen it. I can't usually go out during the week because of my kids but if a miracle happens or you get out on saturdays, let me know.
Dating in general sucks. Especially in this hook up culture that we have. It's good that you're avoiding that whole thing altogether. It can get so messy. It has it's moments where its fun but it's probably better to not even fuck around with it.
Ask admin for a subforum they are so busy right now I doubt they would notice ..lol or start the first yourself good luck
Well it's been fun being a virtual who-errrr, but that's as far as i've gotten. HAHA. Even still on this topic, I haven't told anyone that I smoke. 1. the 420 friendly dudes on those sites are so not what I have in mind. and 2. why jump into that until it's absolutely necessary! I mean I hope I am like OregonDaisy smoking at 63, but who knows I may decide I don't want to anymore....I would say her chances of finding a 420 friendly date would be higher in Oregon than where here. nah....who am I kidding!? smoke until I die.
there is literally a website called "stoner singles", one on both .com and .net dunno how legit they would be though lol i have never used an online dating service
I looked at some of the sites that were posted her in another thread. I have managed to meet some people through ok cupid. they have a section when you fill out a profile on what your thoughts are about marijuana. Nobody I want to see again though, lol. I do go to Goonies sometimes on the weekends. Sometimes they have a good band on a Saurday night. I've been going on Thurs. to the Spotlight to listen to karaoke cause my friend is in the contest.
