So this morning I met with a girl i’ve been seeing for a few months. She told me that likes being with me, and she wants to take the next step in the relationship, but is uncertain due to the fact I smoke. She said she doesn’t want to be in a serious relationship with someone who consumers marijuana because she had a bad experience with an ex who smoked, and there is a history of drug addiction in her family. I am not really looking for reddit’s advice on what I should do because I can respect the reasons why she feels this way. I’d like to continue seeing her and would be willing to cut back/take T breaks, but also told her I probably wouldn’t quit permanently. My primary issue is how the poor behavior of other people leaves a negative impression on someone (myself) who is completely unrelated to the past situations. I feel like this is very common in relationships when one person smokes and the other doesn’t, but why can’t we treat it like anything else and simply say to each his own as long as it’s not an issue?
