Peer pressure. Haha, just read.

  1. Just out of curiosity, have you guys ever pressured someone into smoking, on purpose or otherwise? I'm pretty sure I have, only cause it's so hard to not wanna try and let someone know that it's fine! It makes me feel kind of bad though, I mean I've never actually forced anyone to smoke but sometimes I think I try to make people smoke just because I think they should try it before judging it you know? Just kind of ranting but lemme know :)
     
  2. ive joked about it sometimes saying your a pussy if you dont hit this blunt. or whatever, but usually when we start passin and they just decide if they want in the roto or not.
     
  3. Only times I peer pressure is when the people are borderline about smoking and they have expressed previous wants to smoke they are just a little scared about taking the first hit, and I'm like "hit it! I am peer pressuring you right now, smoke some weed." then I start wierd talking like those propaganda bitches like "Everyones doing it! It will help you relax" lol im high:smoking:
     
  4. i'm against actually peer pressuring people yano what i mean. if they don't want in they don't want in, nobody should force shit upon anybody.

    but, if they are, like NickM420 said, borderline about smoking, then yeah I encourage them to come over to the green side :D
     
  5. I don't. I asked my friend once if he wanted to, he said no. And I respect his decision.
     
  6. this is what i do, though i tend to joke about toking to eas it in so hes not so scared to take the first hit.
     
  7. Nope can't say I have. I may ask once or twice but if they say no it's their loss.:D

    I won't complain more for me.
     
  8. i just ask em and if they don't want it's still cool
     
  9. I won't be like "smoke this now or i will kill you with this rake."
    I'll ask if they want and if they sound like they want to but they're not sure I just explain to them how harmless it is and that it's just a plant and whatnot, but I don't make them.
     
  10. I do this all the time, it's quite effective.

    I find more often then not I joke about peer pressuring if the person is feeling on the fence about smoking, but never actually bullying someone to smoke.
     

  11. Yea my 2 good friends started at the end of middle school but I waited till the end of junior year. If someone doesn't want to smoke I respect that. The only problem I see is when kids hop in a rotation when they don't actually smoke because they think its cool. Let's just say a bong + new smoker = assed out.
     
  12. I jokingly pressure people, although I'm sometimes being partially serious. I have this fake "rule" in my smoking circles: No tapping out! If someone tries to drop out of the sesh, I usually berate them and say shit like, "This isn't the fuckin' UFC! You can't just tap out when you've had enough!" Sometimes it actually works and the person will continue smoking, but usually I leave them alone after a minute or two. Besides, that just means one less head in rotation
     
  13. yea i wouldn't force someone to smoke, just tell em that its amazing and your missing out, they'll come round eventually
     
  14. Peer pressure definitly isn't my thing. I sometimes find myself doing it in almost a subconcious type of way, but I always end up realizing and backing off. IMO if they don't wanna toke, it's their loss. But yeah when people are on the border line of yes or no, I will point them in the right direction !

    One thing I am really bad for though is making people smoke excessive amounts. I always intend on smoking another fat bowl for people. I guess I do this cause of my tolerance not being the same as theirs. They'll say their high, but I won't feel nearly as blizted so I tell them to toke up.
     
  15. not really. me and my friend use to peer pressure his sister to blaze with us, but now she blazes anyways.
     
  16. My gf lied to me about shit with her exbf, so to make it up to me I *made* her smoke....

    I regret it all of the time D:
     
  17. If I offer to someone they say no I'll just say ok cool.

    If they say something like ew no, that shit's bad for you, gross, I don't wan to die, etc I'll go union on their ass.
     
  18. I ask one time and if they say no Ill ask aain if they sure and if its a no Ill respect that, halfway through though Ill be like last chance to hit this and ifthey say no ill leave it at that. More bud for me.

    Recentlymy some of my friends decided to take a break from the herb and I went over to kick it with them and my one homie whose always down to smoke refused I was really suprised he said hes taking a week break so I had to smoke a whole blunt of dank to myself, ended up putting it out half way. But i always think of it as just more for me !!
     
  19. I will ask all of my guests if they would care for a toke. If they say no, I say OK well do you mind if I smoke? And they always say no.
    My friend Sara has been coming over to chill a lot lately, and everytime she's here, she asks me questions about it and I'm like 'Ya sure you don't want a hit?' and she's like NO NO I'm fine...
    well the last time she came over, I guess after so many times of asking her, she finally said "Ok...fine. Don't let me trip out or anything" and she smoked.
    The next day she texted me "I just need some bud and a bong, and I'll be set!"
    Haha... I am such a good influence.
     
  20. Nope. it was completely my decision to start smoking. Why would someone ever try to peer pressure someone into smoking? Thats just rude and controlling.
