life_can_be_painful

one thing that I did learn since the first time I ever smoked pot is that if you believe that pot is damaging to your body, that it can impair your judgement so much or that it gives you difficulty in breathing or convinced of having a heart attack, then the paranoia is more likey to cause these things to happen than the effect of being high... my first couple of joints were terrible. I kept thinking the police were about to kick the front door open, i imagined everyone i met could tell that i was stoned, i imagined my lungs collapsing or my heart stopping, having a brain aneurism... it was pretty unpleasant, but you have to rememebr that I had come from years of brain washing in school and from parents... after a while I began to loosen up and actually enjoy myself and feel in control, and I realized that all these things they say about pot is mostly lies to scare you from doing it (they used to claim pot turned you into a murderous cannibal back in the old days to make an effect)... and now im totally cool. Occasionally I smoke more than I can handle and feel a bit stoned, but then I just remind myself that theres nothing to worry about and life should be enjoyed, and everything is fine. 1. Kills Brain cells - As far as I'm aware, pot does't really kill brain cells. And they don't really know what effect it has on your brain, other than that some molecules attach themselves to fat particles in your brain used to transmit from neuron to neuron or something like that. So all it probably does is alter the blood flow in your head, sorta like standing up too quickly. Alcohol, on the other hand, does kill brain cells, because the process chemical dehydrates your brain cells, killing them. 2. Addictive - I've never met anyone addicted to pot, except for seriously depressed people who are having a rough time in life and the only reason they cant stop smoking is because its the only thing that makes them feel ok. It has no addictive substance in it... although, like anything, it can be habit forming, but this is the realm of psychology. 3. Cant OD - well, technically you can, but it is so unlikely, its impossible... something like 50,000 joints in 1 hour... You'd die beforehand from over-exerting your lungs, more likely. With alcohol, it something like 3 times the amount that gets you drunk, which is significantly more probable and happens a lot. 4. Kills people every day - alcohol kills people everyday from violence and drunk-driving. While alcohol is well known to make people more risk-taking, pot is more known to make people more cautious and slower, but both do affect your judgement... true... Personally, I think alcohol is more likely to be dangerous than pot, even when all things being equal. 5. Can lead to violence - this is some of the propaganda that they came out with in the 40's/50's time, that they claimed pot could eventually turn you into a deranged psychopath and cannibalistic... or what ever... thats non-sense. And furthermore, I've never gotten into any fights when I or the people around me were high. It just _never_ happened. Alcohol, on the other hand, it can barely go out for an hour without meeting someone who is drunk and aggressive. Dont get me wrong tho, I still think alcohol should be legal, but I believe that pot is mostly harmless, while alcohol is the one thats actually more dangerous. Pot is like catnip for humans. Go figure.

sounds like my ex, i thought she was the only gal for me, still hurts and its soon 2 years ago...i dunno what to suggest, but really he doesnt seem like he wants to be with you anymore... and i guess you just have to accept that some people handle their emotions differently than you do and can just let go like that... sorry, but such is life

well, either he's not being completely honest because he doesn't want to hurt your feelings... just as it might bug some guys to hear that their cum tastes bad. or he could actually like the taste. My girls friend is constantly giong down on me, and the last thing I want to hear from her is that its gross. I dont think girls taste any different. This from personal experience and from what friends have told me. But there are some people who like Marmite and some people who are revolted by it. It is the same tastes tho...

bs... i told you... it was all bs. she had her eye on you from the first moment and was doing the transferance phase... and people on this board were trying to convince us that it was just a friendship. ive seen this all before... good luck friend. just dont get too attached to her.

i know what you are saying, but you have to remember that some peopel entertain the idea of commiting suicide to make those they love who have hurt them feel sorry and guilty for pushing them off the edge. heh, suicide is such a complicated thing, i almost think that its a matter of horomonal imbalance so no matter what you do, you cant change the way the person feels, nor can they themselves... because in life there are plenty enough reasons to give yourself for suicide... its a matter of how much our horomones control us to focus on things... thats one of my ideas... could be wrong of course

hehe, stick it to the man

haha, im not part of any church just being the devils advocate... or gods advocate... erm... lol

hm, i always thought it meant something of a particular sexual perversion... according to any church, oral sex is a perversion. and last time I checked, the mainstream you speak of applies on to a small percentage of the population. The one that tends to think that most people are like them, few people are religious, and most cultures are just as open and accepting of different sexual practices and persuations, to name a few examples. last time i checked, very few people were like that, even in the united states but i could be wrong. oh, and finally, not to be too annoying "coming soon... brand new iSteve Forums!" on your website link removed is spelt wrong ("Coming soon..." etc etc). I know its an annoying thing to point out, but sometimes I'm an obsessive compulsive (one which has been able to conquer his dyslexia). I cant help it...

well, if oral sex isnt foreplay, and foreplay isn't supposed to be kinky... then i dont see the point of doing it obviously, its not the only or most kinky thing you can do with your partner, but i wouldnt be so nonchalant about it

well, personally i do see it as part of her problem, and although its not something she can change anylonger, its something i think is relevant to explaining why she's in a tight spot at the moment. i dont believe advice necessarily has to come in form of a solution to your problem. it can sometimes be insight into the nature of the problem.

grins... you make it sound like your fanny is an exquisite foreign fish and if you add just a little too much salt or spices, it changes its taste completely. anyways, i just wanted to express my disagreement. while its true your lady will taste a little more acidic depending on her menstrual cycle, dont expect it to taste of chocolate one day, then skittles the next... it still tastes of battery acid... although one thing you can apparently do is get her to drink lots and lots of pineapple juice, and this will apparently make her taste a little more sweetened... should do the same for guys too oh, and i think it also depends on how drunk you are

ur not ugly. and i think the fact i have had several hot gf's is testament that looks is not the most important factor. just be yourself, be friendly and outgoing and receptive to meeting new people, maybe update your wardrobe, get funkier hair and try not to be too computer geeky ^_^ good luck. i hope this was a bit of a pep talk

they taste like battery acid... with slight nuances. its not the most pleasurable experience, i think anyone is weird (different) or lying if they think it tastes great, but something you can get over if you love your girlfriend and want to please her and like being kinky... also, good hygene is a plus++ ps. Morrissey/the smiths is awesome

my ex did that too, and then she eventually broke up with me. i dont know if thats much advice, but more of a caution. somethings going on in his head and he's not letting you in. so just hang in there and brace yourself for things to go either way. but just be yourself and try to be happy, even though i know it must be hard. good luck!

the only thing im aware of is just be sure to show her a really good time and get completely wankered (wasted/drunk in other words)... may or may not be your girlfriends thing, but certainly is an irish tradition (seeing as half my friends are irish and me having lived in the uk for years).
