Alot of people smoke weed. Even my boyfriend used to but i made him quit. Even my parents do. For some reason i dont like weed. Ive never really tried it. But knowing my parents do it makes me think bad about them. It makes me think why do they do it but they are supposed to set a good example. Most of my friends do it too. I guess im just a good girl. But my boyfriend tries to convince me that theres nothing wrong with it. And i never agree and i dont think its right. Its a drug and im ashamed of everyone that does it. I dont know why though. Is there somthing wrong with me? anything will help! but please dont leave me rude comments.
ilovetohelp answered Tuesday December 13 2005, 4:35 pm: There is absolutely nothing wrong with you. Honestly my parents do weed too. and it really sucks but that doesnt mean you have to do it. if your boyfriend is trying to pressure you into doing something you dont want to do he is obviously not a good boyfriend. and yes parents are supposed to set a good example for us but well just ignore it. just because they do it doesnt mean you have to do it. at first i thought badly of my parents for doing weed too and well i still do. cause my dad and my mom are constantly saying how much they hate people that do drugs and here they do drugs.well i hope i helped. like i said just ignore it. the 3 d's Dont Do Drugs!

KiSSxMYxPEARLS answered Tuesday December 13 2005, 12:44 am: Nooo way. It's good that you don't smoke weed. Its your opinion/choice and people shouldn't force you into it. Your right, parents are suppose to set a good example. And they aren't..No offense. You are a good girl. And you should be proud. Even though i sometimes do it, i still think its kind of disgusting. It has a really bad smell. You don't have to try it just to "experiment" wheather its good or not. You already made your choice & you should really stick to it. Don't smoke. It's soo not good for you. I'm proud of you!!!!! =)
Krupple answered Monday December 12 2005, 4:19 pm: It's heartbreaking really. Kids at my school are the same way. I have a friend whose dad tought her to smoke, and he is worthless. It takes a strong person to stay away from the stuff.
I've talked to SO MANY people who've said nothing good ever comes from it, so I've stayed away from it. [ Krupple's advice column | Ask Krupple A Question ]

cynicalladvice answered Sunday December 11 2005, 11:22 pm: There is nothing wrong with you. If you don't wanna smoke pot then don't. You'll probably be healthier for it. But don't be ashamed because of others, life's too short. [ cynicalladvice's advice column | Ask cynicalladvice A Question ]
Alpha345 answered Sunday December 11 2005, 8:22 pm: Conformity is never good, ever. I admire you for being able to say no to pressures around you and stay away from it. There is absolutelty NOTHING wrong with you about not liking it and not smoking it. In the long run it will and does hurt you through loss of memory and a whole host of psychological affects that are never good.
Keep your beliefs and don't do it. There is absolutely nothing beneficial from smoking weed and you should just stay away from it. Your not weird and there is nothing wrong with you for not doing it, and remember that!
Joshua 1:9- Be strong and courageous, do not be terrified, for the Lord your God is with you all the time.
MissTash answered Sunday December 11 2005, 6:33 pm: I Truley admire you for being the only one who doesnt like it!
Its a bad drug, it definetly effects you in the long run,
It can cause things like Scizophrenia, and bad depression..
there is definetly NOTHING wrong with you for not wanting the drug.. my advice is..
DONT TAKE IT!!
I really admire you for not falling in the trap of peer pressure, and its good to see that even with all the people in your life doing the drug, your not..It shows your a very strong person.
Look up Weed on the internet, and find out the affects of the drug..
Keep up your willpower.
Your parents may be too far gone to help now. try and Get your friends off it, let your boyfriend know of the affects, set a good example.
You are for alot of people.. [ MissTash's advice column | Ask MissTash A Question ]
S_C answered Sunday December 11 2005, 6:14 pm: Oh my gosh, there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with you. You should be proud that you don't, stand up for what you believe in and don't back down, espcecially when it comes to breaking the law vs. following it. I've had friends that had the same opinion as you then that very night they state they'll never smoke they do smoke, they fall in love with it, become totally addicted, get caught with it, and get expelled from school. Do you want that to happen?!
I've had really good friends that have been killed by drugs, from over dosing, from having drugs slipped in their drinks, from driving after getting stoned, all sorts of things. It's not something your friends want to go through, having a good friend pass away really kills you emotionally!!!!
So I am proud that you are able to back down, peer pressure is a really hard thing to back away from, I think it's cool that you don't smoke. I have SO many friends that do drugs and I LOVE hanging around them because they're awesome people when they're not stoned and stuff, but would I ever do drugs? No! It's not my thing, plus my parents would kill me and I've had WAAAY too terrible experiences.
When you grow up and look back on this moment you'll be proud that you didn't follow the crowd and that you chose to stick with your gut and not do drugs. Don't let people pressure you into these things. I've experienced peer pressure, it's EXTREMELY hard to back away from it, I've gotten caught in it a few times, it's AWESOME if you can stick up for what you believe in, I'm proud and I'm sure others are too!

xxoBriannax answered Sunday December 11 2005, 5:34 pm: Good for you that you don't smoke weed. Don't give in to pressure. You are doing an amazing job. I can't say I've ever heard of anyone that has parents that smoke weed and they haven't even tried it. There is definitely nothing wrong with you. You are very smart. Weed is illegal and is very bad for your health. [ xxoBriannax's advice column | Ask xxoBriannax A Question ]
Ivy921 answered Sunday December 11 2005, 5:11 pm: No. There is nothing wrong with you. In fact, there is something very great about you standing behind your beliefs in what you think is right even when you are faced with a LOT of pressure from the other side. Its hard especially because of your parents and boyfriend, but it makes total sense, I know of other people who don't like weed precisely because their parents did it. And you know what, its not that great for you. It may not be like a hard drug that could kill you or permanently damage you, but it makes you spacey, and for some people depressed. Keep being who you are and everything is going to turn out great. The one advice I would add, while it may be hard not to, try not to judge those who do smoke. Different strokes, right?

orphans answered Sunday December 11 2005, 5:07 pm: No. Your smart. You have no reason whatsoever, to need help. And you dont need to be ashamed for anybody elses actions. If you cant look up to your parents, time to look up to somebody else, i suppose? And for you boyfriends, IT IS A DRUG & IT IS BAD. Dont date a boy who does drugs, Im glad he stopped.
