Talking to my gf about herb
    #19072961 - 11/02/13 12:01 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

So basically, when we first started dating I smoked both cigarettes and herb and stopped both after about three months and about a year later I started smoking herb casually again, a few joints with the buddies every few weeks and occasionally hitting the bong in a mates van every two or three nights in the holidays, and after a while I mentioned it to my gf and she got really upset, she hates the idea of me smoking, she has no issue with me being high, but just the act of smoking freaks her out, even after her seeing studies talking about how minimal the harm of straight herb are, she says it still freaks her out and even she admits that it's an irrational thing but she can't bring herself to shake it. These days I just smoke without her knowing and it's totally fine, but for some reason it'd just make me so much happier if she knew and could deal with it but I need to work out a way to explain to her that I don't do it to upset her but it's something I enjoy and I can't let her dictate my life with her irrational fears. And she's even okay with me taking shrooms or if I was to cook up my own edibles, but edibles are so expensive to cook and I just want to be able to have a joint or two every now and then without her freaking out/crying. Any ideas?

Tl;Dr gf is okay for me to get high but not smoke, edibles too expensive, don't like vaping. Help.

I'm assuming that she does not smoke given her issue with you smoking.  Have you considered asking to smoke while she is there one time?  Maybe some of her irrational fear comes from not really having an experience of being around it or being around you while you are doing it.  Without really knowing her experience with it, it is hard to say what to do.

Yeah a little while after we first started dating (maybe 6 months ish after?) I asked her to try it with me one time and she seemed open to it and when it got to a time when we could and I tried to organise it she changed her mind. I don't think I could ever convince her to smoke anything without having a panic attack. Australia is an absolute nanny state when it comes to anti-smoking ads. She said she knows that herb is different but she can't not think of this ad (
whenever she even thinks about smoking anything or me smoking anything.

I was going to say that if you can afford to buy an ounce or so at once, you could make up a nice batch of Green Dragon.

You basically extract the cannabis into a high proof alcohol such as Everclear to make a strong tincture. If done correctly, you should only need 3-4 milliliters so a little goes a long way.

I just made a batch using the recipe that I linked to and I love it so much, I can't stop raving about it. It is strong, easy to dose and is pretty much tasteless if you add it to something like a glass of orange juice, the high lasts a couple hours longer than smoking, and then of course the best part is not having to smoke.

If you can't spare an ounce at once, the recipe can be scaled down to use as little as an eighth of weed.

:awehigh:

I'd rather you didn't call my girlfriend a bitch and yes actually it does, when she thinks about me smoking it upsets her because she's worried for my health. If you don't have any positive input I'd ask that you don't reply to my thread. And yeah brownies/edibles are the best option but they're a quite large (for my budget and usage) investment and I'd rather just have a joint whenever rather than cook up a heap and feel wasteful if I don't eat them seeing as I don't enjoy being high every day just occasionally

Once in a while i bake one big brownie using 5 grams of the best stuff I can buy. I cut that up in 16 pieces and those keep pretty much for ever in the freezer. Without tolerance one piece fucks me up for hours.

55€ and you are set for months  :shrug:

That sounds like a pretty good idea to me actually, I can get about 7 or so grams for around $90 street price or 75-80 off my buddy so that could well be a good option, do you find the high any different to smoking?

It can be real overpowering if you accidentally take too much. (caution advised)
I have heard the high is different as well.

Yeah I've heard edibles like even sativa dominant edibles tend to be way more couch lock-y.

That's definitely the case with the green dragon that I made. I used all sativa and that stuff still knocks me out after a few hours. :lol:

So I've sorta kinda brought it up in conversation recently, not specifically herb but I basically said I'm not doing all of the things I want to do or saying the things I want to say because I'm always worrying about your reaction and it's making this relationship very one sided so I'm going to start doing things you disagree with and telling you when I have an issue with something and it's not because I don't love you, it's because I need to be my own person if I'm going to bring a positive element to this relationship.

And she said she totally understood that but we'll see how it goes when I say 'Okay honey I'm gonna go get baked with the guys now' :stoned:

At least you are being honest with her, sounds to me like if she has a major problem with it then she isn't the right girl for you.

I would try talking to her and figuring out why it freaks her out (if you haven't done that already) even if it's an irrational fear, there will be a reason causing that fear.

The stuff I use is pretty high end.

Without tolerance the high is actually somewhat psychedelic with mild CEVs. I haven't smoked in years but I would say edibles are a lot more efficient.
One small brownie containing a little over .3 grams gets me super trippy stoned for about 2,5 hours and uber mellow high for another three to four hours. After that it usually tapers off because I start eating a lot :grin:

I highly recommend using organic coconut oil for the baking process. With regular veggie oil the brownies came out like weed-bars. With coco they taste like chocolate with a very mild coco/weed flavor. :thumbup:
