Is it normal to not want to do pot for this reason

I know it doesn't kill you and it's harmless.And I have nothing against people if they do it.

But I honestly don't want to do it because of the people I know who already do it.

They're all very immature and rude.Don't care about school.Cheat on their significant others.Act like idiots when they smoke and are general dumbasses.

But then they go and tell me that I'm missing out because I haven't smoked (I've never had the chance)and that it's the greatest thing in the world.I even had an ex tell me I'd be less of a "bitch" (I use quotations cause he's the only person who has ever acused me of being unpleasant or bitchy)if I just smoked it.

They generally just act like superior assholes over it.Like their choice of habit makes them better than me.Like Evangelicals trying to convert an atheist,you know?

I don't want to try marijuana because I don't want these bastards to be "right".I don't want them getting all "I told you so" about it while I continueously hate myself for not having done it sooner.I dont want to give them the satisfaction

Don't get me wrong,I've met pot users who don't care if I do it or not and are great people to be around (one is even my best friend :) ) But people like this are few and far between.At least where I live.I actually really wanted to try it before I realised how these people act.

I'm actually looking for drugs to try that are safe and just as good (I've heard shrooms are just as fun xD)I might even still do pot later on if I find a less self-righteous bunch of people to do it with.

But until then I was wondering,is this a normal reason to not do pot?

(I apologise if my spellign sucks,this thing need spell check xP)

    Like, along the lines of peer-pressure? Honestly, not all people who smoke pot are like that. I know you stated that, but I just wanted to reassure you that not all marijuana users are dumbfucks. But they're rare to find.

    Anyway, as you probably expected, I'm gonna tell you to do whatever the hell you want. If you wanna smoke, go for it. If you wanna try shrooms, do it. Just be aware of the risks.

    And yes, weed IS bad for you. I smoke myself. Inhaling any kind of smoke will be harsh on your lungs. Also, I've had short-term memory loss as of late. I'm not the only one to experience this.

    Just be safe, and use whatever in moderation.

    Side note: I do very well in school, I get along fine with my family, and I'm a fairly good teenager altogether. Smoking does 'cause me guilt, though.

    I respect you. I smoke and I hate those types of people that act like duche bags. But they aren't that way because of pot, they're just idiots and idiots are more inclined to do illegal things in general.

    Reasoning in its self is subjective, so I don't really know whether or not to tell you if your reason is 'normal' but it makes sense to me. But then again you don't need to find a justifible reason to do something you don't want to do, just don't do it if you don't want to and don't let others tell you what you should want. I, for one, will not smoke weed, just like how some may never choose to eat fish, never drink alcohol, or never watch jackass, it's a personal choice and not choosing to do so does not in anyway make you a snob, stuck up, a buzz kill, a loser, prudent or less bitchy lol ps like some already said, it's not exactly harmless

    InsertBlankHere pretty much said my peace for me. :) to give you another example, I've been around coke a few times. Not my thing, never wanted to try it, but I never had a problem with people doing it.
    But one of my bfs friends was doing a bunch with these kinda mean girls one night when we were there, and they were driving me insane with how rude and hurtful they all acted and thought it was funny.

    If you can find a better group of stoners to hang out with, I'm sure you'd see a totally different side of the world of ganja. And remember kids, it doesn't make yah stupid.. It just makes yah high :p

    Find someone else to smoke with.
    Take away the weed, and these people would still be idiots and assholes. The drug doesn't affect the user's personality; their personality affects how they interact with the drug.
    If you decide to smoke pot, you'll find that those people are still assholes, and you're still a good person. You're just high, now.

    Normal, dont smoke if you dont want to. However, it's not the pot that makes your friends cheating dumbasses, they just are cheating dumbasses. I smoke pot daily since im 17, i am now 23, university student, i would never cheat on any gf... Pot can change your perception of the world but wont change all your values

      Does it make you act stupid? (I come from a class of idiots who act stupid regardless)

    I think people would be better off without doing drugs, period. I did my share and it never did me any good.

    Many people do drugs to go against the man and you are talking about pretty much the exact opposite.

    Funny how things get turned around.

    everyone assume i do cause of my long hair, music choice and my personality but i never smoked pot. it was for some of what u said, but it was also because i knw too many burn outs and it made it unattractive to me. so just dont do it, and stop making a big deal about it.

    Understandable. You're standing up to the man.
    If you ever want to, do it somewhere they won't know. They can't taunt you and you can say you've tried it and do/don't agree with them.
