That is a good reason for her to not let your people know she smokes weed. It's a very easy fact to hide unless she blazes in front of them or before visiting them. However that is not a good reason at all to want her to quit - because other people don't like it.
I had a boyfriend once who wanted me to be more sociable with his family because they thought I was weird. I lost interest so quickly. To me that shows so much weakness. You care more about what people outside your relationship think than what you or she thinks.
Maybe if you come up with a solid reason, she will listen. But weed is becoming less frowned upon every day, it has medical uses and, if used properly it can be a very helpful herb. If it does have any negative effects on her (anxiety, paranoia, lack of motivation, costing too much) she will have to see that for herself before she takes quitting seriously. She may stop one day, even if she is a die hard pothead right now (I thought I'd never quit but now I only smoke on occasion and we'll probably stop completely someday), but that has to be her decision or she'll never be happy with you or her choice to quit.
Is it normal to dislike my girlfriend smoking weed?
