That is a good approach, especially if you've never done anything else before (other drugs or got drunk). Not to say that smoking pot is like doing those other things, but if you've never had your mind "altered" before, you might not know how to handle it.
My first time was with my husband when we were dating. He started using it for medical reasons, but I came from a background that taught me all drugs are bad, alcohol too, period.
Anyway, I was angry with him for it, but he kept telling me it wasn't as bad as I thought. He was smart so I decided to trust him and not have a beef with his own use. Then after I was with him several times when he smoked and saw nothing weird was happening to him, I decided to try it too. At first I was angry at him because it did more than what I expected, or did something else entirely. But I didn't feel like I could literally get mad at him. I just didn't have it in me. And he said, "Let's go for a walk!" And I was afraid that wasn't safe, but he said it would be fine and so we did. It was fun and relaxing. I don't do it that much anymore, it just doesn't agree with my current situation, but every once in a while I still do and enjoy it. Helps a lot with insomnia and also helped me with anxiety problems and pain.
Do you smoke cannabis?
