I can't believe you guys are talking about dogs!!!! Geesh, you give up easily....
I can't say that it's ever been an issue for me. But I think we run in very different crowds, pretty much anywhere I've gone for the past 20 or 30 years everyone has either been an mj user or had no qualms about the matter. Even my ex wife, while a casual smoker did not readily agree with my growing mj back in the early 80's, she allowed me to do it.

Don't worry, Kathy, the dog is not an option for me and I'm keeping my eye on the target, even though she moved 1600 miles away...lol. I think I may be ready for a change of scenery too...![]()
oh don't get me wrong i have my lady friends too. Just a dog never tells you your farts stink lol.
And still I see no changes. Can't a brother get a little peace?

As the resident cheerleader here, I want you to follow that woman, Cannahope. A change of scenery will invigorate the neural pathways in your brain.
As to the chaos factor caused by having and using large quantities of cannabis, there is absolutely no doubt that it causes problems for me in relationships. It causes inevitable stress because it is illegal for other people.
So the question is not whether we have increased relationship difficulties, but rather how we can
make things easier for ourselves and people we care about.
There are no easy answers to this, but some people may be better at avoiding problems than others. Seems to me that all people either love cannabis or hate it and either group could be difficult to negotiate for different reasons. There will always be added pressure on us until prohibition ends.

I wish it was that easy. Gotta think about the kids, and what's best for them. Meanwhile my mind is working on how me moving could make it better for the kids...
How come there's that red, grouchy icon on this thread? Can someone replace that?
Something like this would be better:![]()
I'm waiting,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,continue.
How old are the kids approx?Originally Posted by Cannahope
The happier you are the happier they will be. I got moved a couple of times as a kid and I'm better off for it.
Just don't move to a trailer park in the middle of Arizona or Texas and I'm sure they'll find lots to do!
The kids are in the 8-16 range...lol somewhere in there, just trying to keep it anonymous.Originally Posted by rocket_science
I agree about happiness.
The biggest problem is that such a distance between parents will decrease the frequency of visits while increasing the duration; someone isn't gonna be happy. With the family court system involved (divorce / custody agreements) it could get ugly, time consuming and expensive. My ex isn't a very friendly person. I love a challenge though.
Love or lack of it is a key component of life; like work, food, sleep; so I find I can't just ignore it. All I know is, if it's gonna harm the kids in any way I won't be selfish. Lots to think about and analyze...make a decision and go with it, live with the results. That's life, huh?
you can talk, laugh,cry, and shout all u like now where's my plants. i don't bother with the subjects
I can say, that due to recent experience, within the past month or so...I've found myself yet again involved with a complete non-smoker. Like all times before, I've kept things completely quiet about my hobby and very much off radar in regards to my usage, but I have stated that I do use cannabis daily...
At this point and time, this doesn't seem to be an issue...time will tell....

over my life, my family has had many dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters and i have kept many reptiles,amphibians and tropical fish.
these are my 2 favorite crosses of all time golden Labrador retriever, and shepherds. one could not ask for more from a companion for loyalty and compassion.

personal morals and beliefs are at the heart of who we truly are as individuals.
change in perception of what mmj is and what it is used for beyond recreational use is occurring among us. as it is being separated from traffickers "gang life" to medication sustaining treatment.
in Canada, several large metropolitan areas are lessening laws and creating more awareness. as well as acceptance.
in the united states, county's and states are voting for decriminalization and regulation.
there is always a "Ying Yang" is the backlash of regulating body's and police force actions to manage this.
this is all breaking the link of mmj being a associated with Criminal Gangs. that perception will subconsciously become accepted.
no change is instant, but it is a trend that your compassionate acts will be seen as your greatest qualities.
again, i commend you for your compassionate acts.
I think anyone looking to meet should be upfront pretty quick because most other people can smell the pot that you cant, lots of people say nothing but if you dont tell them up front it looks like you have a problem to those that arent familiar with our meds. Jerry
I do not like being with nonusers. Those I have been think that cannabis is exotic and intriguing and they will stick around longer than they should just to feel like weekend warriors. I have caught dates watching me intently smoking a joint as if they anticipate I will turn into a romulan or start dancing naked around the garden. I like other cannabis users and miss the social interaction that it makes possible. I miss the humour and ability to appreciate sensory experiences that we have.
I do not think I could be with anyone very long who did not share these things with me. Cannabis is a love story in itself and just makes everything better. Trying to hide it from someone would be like having to hide the refrigerator. It's impossible and why would I want to.

I find quite the opposite, cannabis helps me find good partners and those that do not use it themselves do not care.... then again I live in Oregon....

I agree though, I've gotten to where I won't look twice at anyone who isn't into the lifestyle, barring the idiot partying recreational types.
But few of them are geeks anyway, which is my first choice.

Dank.frank are you a federal exemptee? If not this may be the problem. Risking a criminal record that could ruin a career and financial security might be too much for the woman you are dating. Don't think you can be busted? Think again, I thought that. Thankfully my GF didn't flinch at being charged with cultivation and trafficking. I am now a federal exemptee, but still facing criminal charges in court.
