A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Just recently I told my girl that I used to smoke marijuana, and because of that she said she doesn't want anything to do with me. She left and said that she can't be with a druggy. I was smoking before I met her and quit because I met her and she was all I needed.

How do I get her back? How can I convince her that people change? I have tried many things to try to convince her but she has said that she knows my type and that I will just go back to Marijuana. I haven't smoked in 6 months and don't even have an urge to. I want her back, I don't want her to think of me as a druggy when I know that I'm not.

She's too young to understand, try again when your 18.

I was going to say a lot more, but DB's response says it all.

I only add that this part of your post bothered me:

"I was smoking before I met her and quit because I met her"

If you "know your not" a druggy, you should quit for you, not for somebody else. She's being incredibly judgemental. But you don't need her approval to be who you want to be.

dirtball agony auntLet her go. She's not ready and has no desire to understand the truth you are speaking. She has made up her mind, so you need to respect that. If you don't want to be thought of as a druggy, then don't be one. Get involved in things, show what you can do.

Honestly, pot is quite harmless in a lot of ways. She'll learn this as she matures. You shouldn't grovel for forgiveness because you were honest all along. You did the right thing, so take solace in that fact. Sadly, she's too narrow minded to realize that.
