Smoking Dope

Do you think the things a person says and does when they are high is the way they really feel, the way they really are, the "true" them?

Only a stoned person would ask that.

The 'true' anyone is a collection, a montage of the individual and even that evolves over time.

At best, you stoned is no more, or less, the 'true' you than you drunk. Or really tired. Or stressed. Or on your best day.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

:lol:

Depends on different factors. Situation and people being spoken to being a couple.

Back in my day :whistle: if I was at work or talking with folks who do not partake, my conversation might very well be skewed a bit away from being totally honest because I flippin had something to hide, feel guilty about, or just did not want to get in trouble for or hear a speech over.

So trying to put a generic, all encompassing description on the thoughts of a stoner is likely a waste of time.

He/she is stoned. LOL Likley about the best way to interpret it.

Puff, Puff, Pass :whistle:

You mean like "did you just feel that", or "I can't move my arms from this chair"?:lol:

No, I'm talking about a personality change.....like night and day.....he realized this was happening to him after he would smoke....his response was "just ignore me, I was high"......but to ignore his "high" behavior would be to delete 3/4 of the relationship....and the things he would say would be so caustic and, at times, revolting....

Being high is not an excuse to mistreat people. If he tells you just to ignore him then I don't think he gives a crap about changing or doing anything about it. And if you let him do this and do ignore him as he asks, you are just enabling this sort of behavior and I doubt anything will get better unless he gets locked up or goes through some other potential life altering event to where he does some self evaluation and makes some changes.

I'm out of it. Just processing it. He made threats to me the night I ended it about what he would do to me. I think he'll probably try to injure me on my job, but I've already let my employer know what's going on. Or he may photoshop something on "Revenge of the Exes." Who knows. It reached the point to where I no longer knew what to expect.

Sounds like you are better off without that crap. Probably sucks and probably hurts but chances are there is a light at the end of the tunnel. You just may not see it for the haze yet.

Good advice. It seems from this thread, and two others posted, that sunny has a lot of stuff going on, all at once. Hopefully, reaching out to this forum will help her through the trauma, leading to some good decisions to change the negatives in her life. Just from what I have read (on all 3 threads), it seems, she is taking too much on, and trying to change people. That never works. Sunny, you need to think of yourself, step back, and reassess. You can only help people if you, yourself, are ok. JMO

I don't want to change anything or anyone. That's why I left.

Well just to throw my 2 cents on what you said. I just think it is worth mentioning, in case she has not figured it out yet, that this forum is a Social Forum. There are going to be many different people with many different views. So anything anyone on here says needs to be taken with that in mind. Some folks get on here just to mess with people, they can be rude and insensitive. On the other hand some will actually care and try to be helpful. Sometimes close friendships can be found as well.

So if someone needs to reach out on this forum, just be prepared for a wide variety of commentary.

How would he injure you on your job? Did you get involved with a co-worker?
