You want your cake and to eat it as well, it doesn't work that way. At a certain point it will either be the drugs or her, I suggest just being independent and stop trying to seek her approval, eventually you will have to move on.
Or....
You could do like I do. My GF doesn't do drugs, and has never even smoked anything ever not once.
I get all sorts of trippy.
Just don't try to get your girlfriend to do drugs with you, problem mostly solved.
Next thing I do is, just don't trip around her so much. If I'm trippin at home, I drop after she leaves for work. I'm close enough to baseline that it's all just good vibes and smiles by the time she gets home.
She has rarely seen me looped out of my mind. Mostly after glows and stuff.
She isn't against me tripping and stuff because I let her know up front at the beginning that I don't fuck around with that kind of bullshit.
Been together for years.
Op if your lady is anti drugs and doesn't want you doing them, I would suggest taking her to a festival, that'll give her a good idea of what the psychedelic experience is like without having to trip herself.

Yea she isnt totally against me doing it she knows i do it. The way i phrased things it might have come accross that way.
I think for now ill just leave it. I will defiantly take any opportunity to spark her interest but no pushing for sure! Its not really that bi of a deal!
And i got my hit of acid last night so im ready to go for next weekend!!! Looking foward to it so much! First time ive dropped in nearly 3 years! Hopefully its not some sort of RC. Shame its $40 for 1 hit in my country... Crazy that thats the norm round here...

Where on earth do you live? It may be worth getting a test kit in the future to be safe especially if your spending that much.

[snip]

My girlfriend is Korean, and in her culture all drugs are viewed as really bad and illegal things without any merit. Cannabis is seen as on par with heroin, from what I can gather. Luckily for me she's a really open-minded girl, and she doesn't have a problem with me smoking up every day even though we live together. I've explained to her that for me, smoking a few cones every evening is akin to having a glass of wine with dinner, and she's seen that I don't actually get very stoned due to my tolerance. She's actually smoked a bit of bud herself before I met her, and will occasionally have a puff with me on the weekend when we're watching a movie or something.
She knows that I also like magic mushrooms, because I've never made any effort to hide it from her -- hiding drug use from your SO is a terrible idea, by the way. I've shown her fresh ones I've collected and my dried stash, and I've described the effects and whatnot. I think she might slightly disapprove of it or prefer that I wouldn't do them, but she doesn't have any major hangups with them and she's openly told me that it's my hobby, it's been my hobby since before I knew her, and she's OK with that. I don't trip around her though, because that might get a bit weird.
The only stipulation she has is that I don't do drugs which are addictive or harmful, which is something I've always subscribed to long before we were going out. I've often brought up some drug harm indexes and shown her that psilocybin always ranks in the bottom of those lists. Funnily enough alcohol always rates near the top, and Korea has a huge problem with alcoholism and alcohol ingrained into their culture. It's lead to some interesting discussions about the perception of the drugs I do as being harmful, versus the reality of the harm of legal drugs.
Anyway. Sorry for rambling OP. I don't have any advice to give, I'm just sorry that your girlfriend isn't as understanding as mine Relationships are full of compromises. You've just got to do decide what you are and aren't willing to compromise on.

That is weird the transaction kept failing. Like I said it may be a good idea to get one in the future as I know they are not easy to come by everywhere.
The dark net really is less risky in many ways at least on a personal level and if you are at least a bit computer savvy.
Getting stuff locally is usually more convenient though of course. But now a days you can actually find higher quality stuff and lower prices online.

I would just break up with her, she sounds close minded and indoctrinated and irritating.

That's kinda what I'm thinking. 
Some people might think it's petty to break up with someone over drugs, but psychedelics are obviously a big deal to OP, as with many of us. Somebody having such an opposing, polarizing opinion on this topic would be a deal-breaker for me. There are way too many people out there to stick around with someone who doesn't get you.
On the other hand, the rest of the relationship could be a mind-blowing, beautiful thing that is worth the trouble. It's impossible to say from a single shroomery thread.
Follow your heart, OP.

I feel like you should be dating someone who will share the beauty of psychedelics with you, it is so amazing to trip with someone you love and sex on psychedelics is fucking epic, you don't need to miss out on that.

Id just drop it. If she isnt willing to listen or consider trying it, dont push her toward it. If she at least respects your choice to trip that is more important.
I would explain what psychedelics have done for me and shown me. And if she doesnt wanna hear it id just leave it at that.

Id accept that she doesnt like it. But i would also show her that its not the horrible stuff that the general public tells us its is.
Thats what i did with my GF....at first she freaked out when i told her i was going to try shrooms and acid (well 1P LSD) but when i was tripping and showed her im not going insane and explained her how it felt and all that she was ok with it. She wont try it herself but she respect my decision to use this instead of alcohol.

Only a complete loser / drug addict would break up with his woman because she won't use drugs. If that is a deal breaker, then you need help. Drugs are fun and interesting, but a life that revolves around drugs alone is not a long one. There's much more to life. At 18 I would have rejected this as nonsense, but a few decades down the line, looking back, it's the truth.
Also, if you plan to stick around on this planet and get married, have kids, you don't really want a woman who's all gung hoe on drugs. You need a woman who can reel you in when you get too out there, and one who can stay clean for a few years, a decade or longer while the kids are growing up.

Sounds like you two just aren't compatible. There's nothing wrong with that, such is life.

That culture is quite indoctrinated about 'the evils of drugs'
Easier to do that, than give detailed education on all types. Rx and alcohol of course are perfectly fine! ><
Quite a few SEA countries have death penalties for drug offenses, so it's serious shit.

not everyone wants a woman to reel them in and poop out babies, I would rather have a woman who I can experience the wonders of psilocybin and marijuana with, that doesn't make me a drug addict or mean I need help

 . When I was younger I thought I would never date a woman who didn't at least toke, but my last GF barely smoked and we lasted almost 2 years 
Though I would have much rather spent those 2 years with someone I could connect with more and toke up with...

I like having a girlfriend that doesn't get messed up.
I can always have a sober sitter if I need.
I don't have to smoke someone else out constantly.
I don't have to worry about her getting in trouble with the law pretty much ever.
And I always got a ride back from the show lol.

Yeah, but that reduces your selection to mostly slobs and dirtbag women who have poor personal hygiene. Sober women have sweeter breath and cleaner vaginas. That's been my experience.
