When it turned out I wasn't okay with it he got angry and 'felt judged'.
I literally didn't say anything mean, just asked him how often - and he got really defensive.

It probably means that he smokes daily?
From my own youth, i know that this is basically the reaction of someone who is addicted. Of course there is no such thing as a real pot addiction - compareable as there is no such thing as a shoe/fashion addiction for girls. It can become bad for the affected person and their surrounding if it goes on forever totally uncontrolled.
It does not really play a role to what one is addicted but getting in danger of someone trying to interfere with the thing of interest is always being taken serious.
The chance of you asking him to smoke less pot is being understood as kind of a huge change in his life which of course nobody really wants and thinking further it could end up in a thinking like: "If i need to change my life fundamentally to satisfy her, we don't really fit together"
Yeah, makes sense. I don't go into any romantic situation thinking I can change anyone - so this is why this particular situation did not work.
That's not actually true, @Lockey_ Pot addiction is quite real, but it's because people with a genetic predisposition to addiction tend to be the only ones who smoke enough of it to become addicted. With moderate use, its addiction properties are so low that it's not addictive, but with heavy enough use, it does reach that threshold.
It's certainly not like heroin or crack, where you are addicted from a single use.
If you don't like him smoking pot (and in your place I would too), then you shouldn't be together, and you shouldn't care how he feels. He's an adult, and should damn well know that he's going to be judged for smoking pot by MANY people. Adults understand that their actions have consequences, and they accept them. He sounds like a fragile child to me.
Oh, no worries, he told me this before our first date and this was something I could not accept so we just didn't go on that date.

You're in your early 30s. Why would you even waste one second of your precious time with some guy who has a pot smoking issue? Any guy has a pot smoking issue by the time he's in his late 20s is still a child.
I didn't. :)
Fuck 'em if they dont' like it!!! I gave up 'friends' for habitual pot smoking and drinking. She smoked a shit load of the stuff and was even growing it in her living room window until the police showed up and wanted to know if they were selling too!
Would you be angry if your guy didn't like you eating junk food or drinking alcohol?
Get over it. Don't think smoking pot equals deadbeat on the couch. I broke up with an ex over same thing because her ex got psycho when he didn't have any (not when he was actually smoking). Lol to her. I'v been smoking for decades and earnt over $200K last year, own my own house, have 4 healthy kids, people think I'm a personal trainer that doesn't age. I attribute some of my success to pot, helped me study to attain the highest qualification you can get from Microsoft at the time.
because he never leaned that you never ask a question if you might not like the answer.
He probably figured that you were fine with it.
Never assume.
People who smoke pot are retards, stop worrying about offending him..
He is just disappointed/upset that your preferences/standards eliminate him from your dating pool.
What is a smoking pot? I only see it in movies, is it normal cigarettes or weed or something else? Why a person smokes pots?
It should depend only on if it is negatively affecting his life. If he has his shit together it shouldn't matter if he likes weed.
If you drink alcohol then you literally don't have a leg to stand on in this argument and are a hypocrite.
You're probably not the first person to say this to him. It's like asking a fat chick, "well have you tried exercising"?😆😆😆 Get ready for an earful.
He wanted you to say it was okay.
just dump him for fuck sakes get rid of his ass
That is a sign he is addicted.
Ditch the pothead
