How do you feel about meeting new people on psychedelics?

I usually don't like it because people I don't really trust and have no way of predicting their behaviors/reactions usually really bother me on lsd. But then I've never met someone for the first time when we were both on psychedelics..
well kinda.. which is the reason I started this thread.
like a month ago this happened: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/9637528/an/0/page/0 Basically I met this girl through a friend like an hour before we all dosed together and it was amazing and I got a lot closer to one of my friends and this new chick that day.. Then (actually a month later exactly) I asked her out, she said yes, and then we had an interesting conversation where it was revealed that we'd both pretty much fallen in love with each other that first day but we just had been oblivious to each others advances until a couple nights ago. And.. idk I guess I just find it interesting, because tripping lsd with some people hasn't necessarily made me closer to them so I know it's not just acid, but I wonder how much acid affected our opinions of each other. Even if it is acid.. the changes it has brought about in other areas of my life have all been good so I guess there's really no need to question it. But it was just a bizarre set of occurrences that took place over that 1 month span and resulted in my getting to know 2 amazing new friends that I found out I have a ridiculous amount in common with.

do you think the majority of people that understand the proper (or a productive) use of psychedelics would have a lot in common anyways just because of the kind of person you have to be to understand psychedelics?

I don't like being around people on pyschedellics, unless they are close friends and on the drug as well.
Even good friends that arent tripping can give me bad vibes.

new people are awkward, friends and acquaintances are comfortable until u start noticing weird characteristics about them

I like meeting new people on psychedelics if they're cool, which I can usually tell just by looking at them.

I love it. Everyone acts different on psychedelics. If you're not a socially awkward person I see no reason why you can't make friends on them.

I can't stand the people who come in a room with trippers and are like "What is it like!" and they proceed to do things they think will trip you out lik wave their hands in front of your face.

I hate those fuckers. I also love people that think you'll see pink elephants fly in front of you, unicorns dancing, and rambows when your tripping out.
What I hate the most are people that think you're all retarded out when you smoke pot. LOL. Dumb fucks. You can tell they think you're fucked up or too dumb to know whats going on. That's totally not the case. I'm just as smart when high as I am when sober. Drunk though is another story. I'd say being drunk is one of the dumbest moments in your life. Yet people get drunk all the time.

Although your theoretical IQ might not decrease due to marijuana use, your short-term memory and cognition that relies upon this will surely be affected.

I'm just saying there is no need to treat someone who is high like a child or like an idiot. I've had plenty of rational conversations with one of my old roommates who didn't know I was high at the time and then when he'd see us smoke he spoke to us like retards. I lived with this guy for enough years to know when he was doing it. It was very annoying. In any case I can do 90% of what I can do mentally high as I would when sober. Yes you are correct you can't do certain things as well. Mainly mathematics and writing a paper.

Agreed. The condescending attitudes that some people have when interacting with stoners or trippers can be downright infuriating sometimes.

I particularly like the people who think that being high is like tripping, and pull the "hand in front of your face" shit when you're stoned.
then you just look at them with a "what are you doing you fucking retard" face.

I've never encountered anybody that ignorant. At least not whilst stoned. Probably because I've spent my entire pot smoking career in Ft. Collins, CO which has a very high concentration of stoners.

Well, the first time I had ever taken any psychedelic, I took an eighth of shrooms with several people I barely knew and a few that I had never met. There were only two people there that I even trusted. But somehow I managed to have a really great trip, no freak outs or government conspiracies, except this one moment....
One of the kids I didn't know felt like taking a walk, but no one else felt like going. So a few people encouraged me to go with him, around the same time a few other people started making gay jokes about said person. I then proceeded to deduce that everyone was trying to trick me into being alone with this guy so he could turn me gay. It was a very hilarious moment. At first I was like, "Okay, maybe" then when things started to click I was like, "WAIT! YOU'RE GAY! NO WAY MAN, NO WAY!" Everyone started laughing and he just left to walk alone.
It's interesting though, because now that I have more experience with psychedelics, I feel less comfortable being around new or unfamiliar people, and yet for my first time I really had no close friends.

I don't really like meeting new people on psychedelics, because when im on psychedelics im clinically insane. I'm aware of the fact im insane, and try to stay away from uncomfortable situations while tripping (meeting new people) I don't know how to explain it, but meeting new people can be an ordeal. Like i can barely handle reality, but other organism interaction is difficult.

I don't mind meeting new people as long as they're chill. In fact, one of my trips I was with 2 friends and spent most of the night at the house of 3 guys I had never met before.
However if meeting new people means being at a party, I think it goes without saying that that's not really want I want to do while I trip. Small gatherings are ok.

Ahhhhh i went to a concert with like half my high school there. They were all drunk, i was tripping on acid. All of these drunk people i bearly talk to at school coming up to me and acting like their my friend. Oh it was terrible, fuckin everything was warping and time was so slow, the last thing i need are drunk people screaming at my face. One of my friends i was tripping with freaked out. The environment was pretty hostile/chaotic.

Thats pretty tight. I missed out on seeing one bad ass pink floyd cover band that recreates the 60's performance to the letter. That I wanted to see kind of.
