Smoking Alone

Exactly. and it's so true. when i am with friends, assuming it's just a few of us, and i have just purchased weed, then it is usually socially unacceptable if I don't share with them unless there's a very good reason why I have to smoke my entire blunt. This works both ways though, I get smoked up a lot just because I am present (; it's a two way street. Another thing is that when you are smoking with other people you are usually expected to smoke the entire thing before leaving or stopping. I hate this. I am a firm believer that once you are BLAZED then you can't get MORE BLAZED. It's a waste of weed. And smoking with friends sometimes creates a huge waste of weed. Personally, I like to smoke alone more than smoking with friends. Main reasons? I like to make my weed last and when I'm alone I decide what I'm doing while I smoke.

I smoke more alone then I do with friends, but that's mostly cause I'm usually alone and I like smoking, not because I have a particular preference for being alone when I smoke. I like smoking alone about as much as I like smoking with friends, depending on the situation really. Sometimes I'd rather smoke alone and sometimes I'd prefer to have company.

The unique social environment around weed kinda annoys me though. If I bought a gram of dope I wouldn't be expected to give some away to every distant acquaintance I see. Yet with weed people always expect you to share all the herb you've bought with them. I don't mind sharing with friends, but when every person I've met in the last few years expects me to go buy weed and roll a blunt with them then it gets annoying as hell. I'm poor, I could afford to act that way when I was buying Mexican schwag, but since I've been buying chronic it's become ridiculous to hand weed out to every mooching half-friend that comes around. If I'm at a party (rare) and I want to smoke I have to go find a secluded space to smoke with 2 or 3 friends, because if I try and smoke around other people then I'll only get to smoke two or three hits from the gram of weed I spent the last of my cash on.

Recently I bought some weed from a guy I'd never bought from before and he asked me to smoke him (and the 3 or 4 people he was with) out. I was dumbfounded, dealers aren't supposed to bum weed off of customers, especially right after I saw the half oz he had with him, that just strikes me as dumb. If anything, dealers are supposed to smoke out anyone who buys from them. Chronic dealers are pretty much always ripping you off anyway since the normal price of chronic is so high. I just shook my head and told him I didn't want to smoke right then. Then I walked 200 ft away and lit up a bowl with two friends. If someone acts as a middle man for me I'll smoke them out, other then that they've gotta be my friend for me to feel good about smoking them out. Pot seems to be the only drug for which this is a problem.

That's just bullshit. I would seriously evaluate the company you keep. I don't necessarily think it's so much the cannabis culture as it is the people you're associating with the expect something for nothing at these parties. If there's one thing I can't stand it's a freeloader. I've been taken advantage too much in the past with me having the weed but the other person never reciprocating and I refuse to put up with it these days. There's an unwritten rule that if you smoke someone else's weed you return the favor, especially since it's not like just letting them bum a cigarette ffs.
 
75% of the time I smoke alone, and enjoy not sharing. I am a little selfish, and save money in the process. But when I am out in bars and so on I like to smoke with others.

I never get too paranoid, I simply just don't enjoy talking about whatever it is other people talk about when smoking.
 
Like many other I get paranoid when with others, so I prefer to smoke alone.. Love to just walk around for a long time with my sunglasses and feel weird and outside.

i definitely prefer smoking alone, it makes me more introverted which is counter productive to socialization, plus i mainly smoke when i'm working on beats late at night or generally to wrap the night up with a movie or whatever.
 
Hey, Lethaltoke I agree with you.. buying it is social but its usually with one other person who knows exactly why your there. I find MUSIC, baths, hot drinks, low lighting all helps if your a lone toker. When you are with others you have to also consider them and since its head high more to take on.. thats not to say I won't smoke socially, because if others are or if others offer then why not..

I dont smoke as much anymore but when I smoked, I found that smoking alone was a lot more enjoyable experience. Almost as if you are living in your own world you created.

To be honest, I would like getting baked with my buddies and playing basketball,

but there was nothing like getting stoned out of my mind and walking into my kitchen, almost as if I had never been in the kitchen before and making my walk to the fridge, which felt like a journey to Narnia when you are really high. Also, watching trippy movies when you are incredibly high is amazing.

Basketball would be cool thats one I haven't tried. I had started playing basketball on sundays with some mates sort of around the time I was turned onto hash dont know why we didnt try it then you ever tried city cycling on a warm evening.. :)
 
i must admit i do smoke a fair bit of my weed with others, but i do prefer to smoke by myelf or with a small group. whats the point in making a joint out of a ten and then sharing it between 4 people? thats like 0.25 each, half of a normal joint at home which does the job properly.
 
I always thought weed was best enjoyed alone, listening to music. I never enjoyed talking or conversating when high, so what is the point of having other people there?
 
i totally freak out if i'm the only one home and i decide to smoke. one time i thought a fucking killer ghost was after me. on the other hand- i hate smoking with a lot of other people. i get really annoyed and want to punch people. especially if i don't know them and they're just the friends of a friends friend type of deal. i guess i'm more of a "single smoking buddy" type of person. two people maximus. and of course it has to be people that i seriously enjoy :)
 
While it's quite possible that the cats I used to hang around with just were lames, I really just could not relate to anybody I knew when they were high.
Decent guys sober, but as soon as we got blazed all they wanted to do was sit on the couch and watch some stupid ass cartoon or eat some stereotypical munchies food. I cam understand just wanting to zone out but every time? And for the entire duration of the high?
It got to the point where I was just hanging with them out of habit and I was just feel completely uncomfortable and out of place. I started to feel like I was just getting weird, but then I realized they were just not the same.
It's some kind of pattern, that happens quite often in circles of stoner friends: They'll start all smoking, and at first get stupid blazed and have a fun time and do something epic, then gradually it just goes downhill and becomes a bunch of potheads sitting on the couch smoking and barely saying shit, getting stoned, and zoning out for hours. Happens way too often, and in my case, I just didn't feel like being a part of it anymore, I never identified with that boring stoner stereotype.
Sucks man, it's the same way as getting high goes from epic trippy adventures to lethargic and stoned for an hour or so. Does anybody feel the way I do about this?
 
I can't smoek around other people because i start getting paranoid adn think ppl are planning against me, so i prepfer to smoke alone and watch anime

Was this sarcasm?
I smoke with my daughter (28) almost every day. But she lives with her dad and I and so does her husband. Her dad does not smoke but daughter and son in law are SO great to have around because I am smoking at home, which is why I enjoy smoking alone, because I'm already secure and out of harms way. But since the kids came back, I can smoke with them, have a few laughs, then go in my own room and smoke alone.

I guess I have the best of both worlds.
 
Nothing wrong with smoking with your kids if they're over 18 IMO but any younger than that and it's so so irresponsible IMO. Personally I wouldn't feel comfortable smoking with my parents but they're both anti-drugs nazis so it wouldn't happen even if I wanted it to. Likewise, if I had kids I wouldn't feel comfortable smoking with them until they were about 25 or older.
 
When I smoked, I was kind of stingy so I would smoke alone. XD Plus I liked to hit it and hit it without having to wait...
 
hahaha, I love being alone- I enjoy my friends through the internet more than going somewhere.. Im a loner that's for sure, have been my whole life.

Never heard that saying though, I'll remember it. XD Fits me perfectly.
