Pothead boyfriend

I stayed with him during spring break and all he wanted to do was stay high the whole time. We smoked a bowl first thing every morning, then layed around watching movies, making love, eating pizza and wings, making love, drinking beer, making love, listening to music...we never once left the house.

By the fourth day I began to feel really bad. I needed fresh air. I began thinking about all the things I had wanted to do during spring break. I thought about my friends in Myrtle Beach. I hadn't spoken to my parents. My head hurt. I was wearing the same clothes...

"I can't keep doing this," I told him, "I've got to get out of this fucking house and do something before I go nuts."

"Well, what do you want to do?"

"Anything but spend one more minute laying around this house watching bullshit on tv!"

If he's going to stay fucked up ALL the time, I don't want to go on seeing him. I smoke too, but usually just a couple of times a week when I'm out with friends. The life of a pothead is not for me.

 

damn...that does suck to be locked up in a house over spring break..especially if your around nice weather..i love smoking pot..but i love going outside too...i couldnt live a life like that either...just not me

 

Well you need to communicate that with him. If he wants, he can easily get up and go do things. So if you are important to him he will do that. If not, move on and find someone you mesh with better.

Sounds like at least he had a good break. Weed, pizza, tv, beer, and sex with a hottie. Thats a good combo.

Plus dont feel too bad about missing the beach. I live at the beach in florida and have been on break this week as well. I havent gone to the beach once bc its been cold and crappy. I imagine myrtle is the same way. My break has been pretty much identical to yours minus the sex and I left the house some.

 

The life of a pothead is what you make it. I know many many "potheads" that spend every day productivly and out having fun. Your boyfriend just sounds like a lazy fuck

 

There's more to it than just laziness; It's the long term effect of smoking pot that I don't like. Hell, there's nothing wrong with getting high and laughing your ass off with friends, or smoking really good bud that makes you incredibly horny and spending the day in bed, or just smoking a bowl by yourself and kicking back with the headphones.

But after a while (like several days of non-stop smoking), pot just makes me feel...bad.

 

What I would do if I were you:
1. Tell him your going to be blunt with him
2. Tell him exacttly what you said in the forums.
3-A. He hopefully loves you and will listen and work on it.
3-B. If he dosen't care then you can do much better. Move on.

Probbably not the easiest thing to do, I know, but it's my suggestion.

 

Yeah, and you know what they say about the preacher's daughter...

 

Amen. I wish more people would realize this. I'm a pot-head, but I also get up and go to work on time every day. I don't spend every minute of my day high.

My girlfriend doesn't like that I smoke so much (I don't smoke around her, or with her, or usualy when I'm gunna go see her, hehe)
She just doesn't like it. In fact, I'm sure she would like it if I stopped smoking all together, but she hasn't asked me.
If she did ask me to do it, I would for her, cause I do love her that much.

but as far as people staying indoors all day and not doing anything, that's not healthy.
The other day I went to an art supply store and got some sculpy (its kinda like clay) and some paint, and I'm gunna make a scupture for her then paint it...
Also later, I'm gunna get high and make some awsome sculptures... (I won't make hers while I'm high, lol)

 

I could live that life very happily....but i would ahve to go out sometimes though, just to make sure people dont think im dead

 

go outside and smoke, nature gets 10 times better when high.

 

Really the internet is what makes me lazy and unproductive. If I get blazed, it usually makes me want to go outside.

 

I know what your saying. I have friends who insist on smoking at 10 in the morning the morning after I sleep at one of there houses. smoking all day, especially early to midday just wears me out, and I end up taking a long nap at like 6 in the evening. Honestly, if i had things to do, I wouldnt sit in my fuckin basement all day like I do. especially if I had a chick.

just be straight and honest with him

 

when I very first dropped out of high school, my parents told me i didn't have to get a job until I was 18 (sweet), so for about 5, almost 6 months, I literally never left my house. I became sooo freaking pale, and I was smoking almost all day long every day. Eventually, though, I felt like I was beginning to go crazy, I just NEEDED to be sober and outside, so, I got a job. Man, i was giving pot smokers such a bad image down here, everyone began to think that if they smoked pot, they'd turn out like me. Now, I've got 4k in a savings account, money in my wallet, and they can't say shit to me.
If I were you, I would tell him how you honestly feel about his 'lifestyle' choice. But don't be soft about it, stand firm in your decision to leave him if he doesn't stop, at least a little bit....

 

im not a fan of wake'n'bakes.

im a true midnight toker- as in I usually wait till midnight for my parents to go to bed.

 

Yea everyone has phases, i always would get sick of sitting around smoking all day, its a waste of bud and you just get a weed headache. I also hate when my friends insist on smoking before everything they do, it's like they cant function without smoking, but for me its the opposite. I like to get things done and not have to worry about anything so my high can be nice and relaxed. It takes the joy out of smoking when you smoke all the time, is your boyfriend goal oriented or does he plan on just smoking his life away?

 

any good adivce always starts with this statement lol

 

I think nature is perfect without weed...weed dosen't make nature better, it just gives you a different perception of it.
I understand what you meant though.

 

Man, what a bummer, sitting around for days inside, stoned, drunk, watching tv. The only good part you mentioned was the sex. But other than that, I'd go crazy if I did that. Smoking that much would be a drag for me, i only smoke once a week and I always feel a bit off the next day. And smoking early in the day also kills me, because when I come down i feel real tired and foggy.

As far as you situation, you just gotta talk to him about it. I mean, if that kind of lifesyle isn't for you (the sitting around, lazy pothead stereotypical one), then something's gotta give. Especially for spring break, man, what a waste of a week off doing what you described!

 

"We smoked a bowl first thing every morning, then layed around watching movies, making love, eating pizza and wings, making love, drinking beer, making love, listening to music..."
Wine (beer) woman and song, sounds good to me.
If you were on spring break with your friends, you'd be eating, drinking, getting high, listening to music and screwing too, right?
Women complain too much.

 

hell yea ! except those would be blunts and i'd be cooking badass food.
