How has tripping together affected relationships with your significant others?

I'm curious to hear some general opinions from the community on this one. For one, I've never tripped with a girlfriend - I have a trip planned with my current girl in a couple of weeks, and I think it's going to go beautifully. Just wondering what experiences you have had in the past tripping with your girlfriends/boyfriends...has it brought you closer together? Created rifts between you? Has the other person realized something about themselves or you that they never had before and become withdrawn? Anything particularly wonderful or awful happen?
I've tripped plenty of times with close male friends, and I've always found that it has strengthened the bond between us like nothing else could...just never tripped with someone I was in love with.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts

me and my wife have done this frequently. and even more frequently have i just tripped while around no one but her while she remains sober.
i would say overall its strengthened our bond together. you really get to see who someone is in the throws of psychedelic mania. you also learn a lot about yourself, your nature, your relationship with your immediate, etc. all of which have the possibility to strengthen a bond, or create a rift. depends on how you utilize the information thrown your way. and the other person, how they receive the message is equally important.

i found that if there is any tension or deep seated insecurities between you that tripping together makes things worse. however if you feel in love and trip together and all turns out well it gives you a sense of loving closeness that you cant take away. its not easy to explain, but i tried. mahalos.

Totally agree
My ex and I tripped together a lot. Then she stopped wanting to. And looking back, I can see it was because she was well aware of this too, and she had negative feelings about the relationship that she did not want to deal with. Psychedelics have this magical ability to force you to be honest with yourself. Even if you can not be made to be honest with others...

This is what I have noticed with people I tripped with. I have yet to find someone to trip with that hasn't annoyed the fuck out of me sometime during the trip.
MDMA is a WAAAY better drug for relationships. Psychedelics are better for alone imo.

I only ever got seriously annoyed by one person....but then again, he was someone I was annoyed with when not tripping, too. Shrooming just compounded that!
Anyone else have anything to share?

Both positive and negative. My (now) ex tripped out and freaked out on me, calling me all kinds of mean things. Another time we both had a very bad trip together, and that seemed to strengthen the relationship a lot.

We got emotionally closer during/after taking e. After taking mushrooms a couple times together it seems like we understand each other on a more basic and human level. It takes fewer words to get each other to laugh now, small things like that. we've been together 3 years, We've always been close and the trip brought us closer. It's definitely not a tonic for a good relationship but if you love someone and they love you it may be fuckin awesome. at least it was for us.

Never tripped with a significant other, but smoking weed together definitely makes for some grrrreat sex. Mushrooms did help me get over a pretty painful breakup though.
