Most people are capable of bonding and not being bored without the help of drugs.
Yeah but you can bond on a higher level, and everyone will be bored some time or another
As someone with a degree in this field, I can't even begin to tell you how wrong most of your information is. Most of it is inaccurate.
You have a degree in how weed affects relationships? What is your degree in, really?
@brain5000 Degree in bullshitology.
Couples that blaze together stay together. Everything is better when you're both high, especially the sex.
Amen! It's hard to get into fights and hold grudges when you've got a little herb to put things into perspective.
As soon as I read the title I knew it's wrong nit because of marijuana
But u made the happiness of ur relationship rely on something physical which is the marijuana that can be banned or vanished? so ur relationship would end just cox u dint have it? What help relationships is talking to understand each other not rely on something
I never said the relationship would rely on it. And it doesn't only help while you have it. You can smoke a few times and it could make the relationship better forever even if you never do again. So the it doesn't rely on it at all
Last week my boyfriend and I wanted to eat spacecake together, so I went to Amsterdam (already went there to go shopping with a friend) and bought it, but I think we were scammed since it had no effect at all in the end. Kind of disappointed... Maybe I'll try making it myself one time.
Don't eat it if you aren't experienced with smoking first, it's much stronger and you probably won't enjoy it.
Lol.. or you could workout together. In b4 hippie stoners tell me I'm mean,
@consultantisback
Lol too many dead brain cells for OP
I don't quite understand your bad English. But weed doesn't actually kill brain cells, that's a myth (if that's what you were reffering to)
Marijuana hurt my relationships. Quitting marijuana helped them, a lot! I had good relationships before I smoked. I had good relationships after I quit. I never had good relationships while I smoked.
Did you smoke together? And maybe you smoked too much
HA! WTF. That shit about sex lasting longer is SUCH a lie!
My one partner that regularly smoked weed sucked in the sack. And he was so boring about sex too (although, not sure if that was the weed or him). He never wanted to go out of bounds or do anything new or out of his comfort zone.
But the main problem was that he never quite get it up. When he was high, it was worse. And I'm not about to sleep with a slovenly sloth person. I'd rather sleep with a completely drunk person (which is also something I would not do).
I said it may not aply to all guys. Also I'm talking about using a reasonable amount, not being stoned
This is bull. Marijuana doesn't help relationships, it destroys them.
In what way?
In the way that people get addicted to it. There are people who are "strong-willed" enough to handle the want, but most aren't. Then it becomes a need. As a person keeps using marijuana, their body begins to develop a tolerance against it. That results in the user taking in more marijuana, and the chain keeps going. Eventually the person's body needs to have it or else they will feel the affects of being away from it. That's why rehab exists. Not only because of addiction, but because it takes it's toll on the human mind and body.
And there's more. It costs MONEY to get marijuana. Like I said, a person will begin to take larger amounts, which means he will waste even more money. So it even destroys your bank account. Not everyone is a rock star who can have it whenever they want.
And that brings me to another point, many celebrities have died because of drug overdoses. It's a miracle some of them are still alive. I've seen documentaries where friends and family describe the toll.
First of all I will say that everything you said is only if you use too much, and I said in moderation.
Secondly it's hardly addictive at all physically. It's addictive in the same way video games are. And many people will say that playing a video game together from time to time can be good for a relationship too. Also if you are happy and in a happy relationship you can even use heroin and not get addicted
And it's almost impossible to overdose on it, you need to smoke like a thousand joints in a row
Most people in the world aren't strong enough to take drugs in moderation. I bet there are way more drug addicts then people who use them moderately, and I think most people would agree with me there.
It is addictive physically. Drug addicts have almost died because they went too long without taking their drugs.
And for overdoses, it doesn't matter either way. Drugs are terrible and I think they should only be used for medical purposes.
Do you think the world would be a better place if everyone on the planet took drugs constantly?
You are talking about drugs in general, I'm specifically talking about one drug. For other drugs yeah but most marijuana users aren't addicted.
Again you are talking about other drugs, people haven't almost died from going too long without weed.
You should have a look at Bruce K. Alexander's addiction experiment "rat park" to understant addiction better. Basically people become addicted only when they are lonely and/or sad. So one could argue that smoking weed with your partner could help your relationship which in turn could actually stop you being addicted to anything you were already addicted to (even to video games or cigarettes) (admittedly, that's a long shot, but it's possible :P)
And I never said constantly, and I never said everyone. But the world would certainly be a much worse without any drugs
That's contradicting itself. If you get addicted because you're lonely, then you shouldn't need marijuana when you're in a relationship. Where I work customers come in every day who are completely stoned out of their mind, and it's terrible. Some of them can't talk well and they all smell and look terrible. Drugs just aren't a good thing. If it won't destroy your body, then it will destroy your mind.
If marijuana isn't bad, then why has it been banned? Is it just for fun? Is it because people have a grudge against it for no reason? No and no. Drugs are dangerous.
Did you even read what you just wrote? "If you get addicted because you're lonely, then you shouldn't need marijuana when you're in a relationship". You're saying people use it because they want to get addicted. If you won't get addicted that means you CAN use it. Also I never said anything about needing it
And the reason it has been banned is a long story, but it's not because it's dangerous. Otherwise alcohol would be illegal, as it's much more dangerous. It's basically because of racism and fear, you can read about it here www.drugwarrant.com/.../
"Basically people become addicted only when they are lonely and/or sad." Did you read what you wrote? If you only get addicted when you're lonely, then when in a relationship you won't need it. That's completely contradicting your myTake.
Alcohol was made illegal before, but it was such a huge part of society that it had to be brought back. Marijuana isn't the same. Banning marijuana because of racism makes zero sense, especially since racists hardly even exist. I can go on and on about that, but it's a completely different argument.
You wrote that before and I explained how stupid it is, why did you write it again? You're just embarassing yourself. I'm not going to explain it twice
"Racists hardly even exist", that may be quite true now but everyone used to be racist, it was just normal to be racist
You didn't explain how stupid it is, I did. It still contradicts itself and you never explained how it doesn't. I never said that people get addicted because they want to. Nobody ever wants to get addicted, it just happens.
"If you won't get addicted that means you CAN use it." So you can't use it if you will get addicted? How are you even going to know if you will be addicted or not? Most people who are addicted either have no idea, or they know and they don't care.
People like to push the propaganda that it used to be normal to be racist, but it's not true. true. It was normal to own slaves.
You said if you won't get addicted then you don't need it, which implies that there's no point if you won't get addicted, that the reason people use it is to get addicted. Also I never said anything in my take about needing it anyway.
No it's a fact, people used to be much more racist. For example black people were not considered equal to white people. Same as people were homophobic. It's only actually very recently that these have died down, even in the 20th century being homosexual was a punishable offense most places
Wow how pathetic is that, not being able to bond properly, relax and have awesome sex without the help of a drug.
It's not about not being able to bond, it's about strengthening a bong even more.
Bond* LOL
@TheDevilsAdvocate yeah no, you should still be able to do that without the help of drugs.
Why watch TV or movies together then? Is the relationship so dull and boring that you need to have an electronic box in front of you showing pictures of other people doing things in order to have fun with your partner?
Smoking pot can be fun, especially with the right people around and in the right setting.
I can't begin to count the number of fun times I've had with friends or girlfriends sitting in my room passing the vape back and fourth, listening to music and having VERY interesting conversations...
And more specifically with girlfriends, smoking pot together offers a great opportunity for honest and open dialogue. Not because we can't have good conversation sober, but when in "the zone" the conversations seem to be a little more open and thoughtful. In my experience at least.
If you don't like it and don't want to be around it, that's certainly your choice, but don't put people like @TheDevilsAdvocate or me down because we think smoking a little weed can enhance an experience.
@Lovelinefan lmao at your attempt at trying to make watching TV the same as smoking pot, give me a break. Stopped reading after that because lol.
It is pretty similar, just one damages your eyes and the other your lungs
It doesn't damage your eyes unless you glue your eyes to the screen and watch tv 24/7 in the dark.
It doesn't damage your lungs if you smoke once a month
Ok, why did this even become a conversation of damage? All I'm saying is that you shouldn't feel the need to add a drug to your relationship in order to experience it "better" somehow. You should be just fine without it.
You can say that about anything. You shouldn't need a smartphone or computer or fridge to make your life better. But they can make it better
Nobody said anything about life in general? I can't even talk to you about this since you keep going off tangent and bringing up irrelevant shit. You don't get high from using a smartphone.
It's not irrelevant. I gave an example of something else that's exactly the same principle. Whether it gets you high is irrelevant
Hahaha it's a losing battle, trying to get someone to change their mind if they're completely closed off to new ideas. Same could probably be said about us defending marijuana, but I've come to my own conclusions after growing up being told all the negative consequences of marijuana and how it kills brain cells and turns you into a lazy loser.
My experience has been very much the opposite and I've met a LOT of really smart, really ambitious, really successful people who also happen to enjoy smoking pot every once in a while (and some, every day, in quantity!)
As far as it's effect on relationships, again... based on my own experience, it's been a relationship enhancer and has been part of countless awesome and fun memories with girlfriends over the years.
So I'll do my thing, you do what you feel is right.
And think twice next time you pop open a bottle of wine with your lover... you really shouldn't need it to have a fun, relaxing time and a good relationship. ;-)
I feel the same way about people who drink wine together at dinner.
@BangBadBxtches that's fine.
— "Many guys can't last long enough in bed to fully satisfy their partners. With a bit of weed they could last a lot longer, giving their partners the time they need to have one or even multiple orgasms."
How about they just stop being selfish and wait until both reach an orgasm?
What? They can't control when they finish
You can train that.
Not much. And many guys have problems with it
Well then they just keep going after it and reach another. Or first get the girl to reach an orgasm, then have one himself.
Lol, they can't do that. You know nothing about sex
What can they not do?
Keep going after finishing. Or last long enough to give her an orgasm
I have to say, sex feels SO good when high! And you don't have to be a junkie to enjoy marijuana either. Like you said, all in moderation =)
Next, you should write one about how molly can help relationships
Yeah but I think people already know how that can help relationships
All of these can be accomplished by just having sex lol.
Bonding.
Less arguing.
You won't be bored.
And the more you have sex the better you will be and longer you'll last.
Of course there are other things that help with these too. But you can have sex and smoke weed. There's nothing to say you must do one or the other. And weed is nicer than sex anyway
Uhhh, you're doing sex wrong if you enjoy weed more lol.
Plus, sex is free and you'll get the same benefits you propose in your take. That was my original point. Why spend money on weed, when just having sex will accomplish those 4 things
You're doing weed wrong if you enjoy sex more. And like I said you can do both, so you get double the benefits
Yea, even my friends who smoke weed all the time prefer sex over weed if they had to choose. Yes you can do both, but if you only had one there is a myriad of benefits that sex offers that you will never get from weed.
They do it all the time so they don't feel it's effects much anymore :P Anyway I never said you must do it instead of sex. It's like saying talking to each other has more benefits than sex, so if you could only do one then you should talk to each other... Well yeah but you can do both.
You can use hand signals, body language and text message. Keep the sex lol
Lol no, speech is still more important
What about deaf mute people? Lol.
What about people without genitals?
Hmm...
Also it makes sex feel super great. And thanks to our new PM it's soon to be legal in Canada!
Ugh. Not in my experience.
Ohh hanging loose... You guys smell like burnt spinache.
I'm not a pot-head. I just wanted to show people some positives that it has because everyone is brainwashed from a young age to believe that it's really bad. I think unlike most psychoactive drugs, marijuana's positives actually outweigh the negatives if it's used in moderation
It fries the brain in the long run.
No, that's a myth. It doesn't make you stupid (except while you're high). It affects short term memory, but that fixes after a month of not smoking
That's soooo totally stupid. My best friend was on that shit since a teen. It got her nowhere. As a result she stresses out too easily And have depression since quitting marijuana last year.
some people rely on weed basically to function everyday, that would suck if you needed it to be in a happy relationship i think, im also biased cause it has had a mostly negative effect on me.
Yeah I don't think people should use it every day, I'm talking about using it in moderation
Oh yeah thats more alright, yeah it is an experience and its great when it can be shared, but just not in front of a tv
Goddamn right! I need to get my wife to blaze with me.
Shit let's just smoke meth then people fuck for ever
On I site designed to help relationships. We end up finding many ways to mask or ignore the underlining issues.
