LOL sorry, when you said "ice" my 1st thought was for the freezer or something. haha /duhr

OP: "I have to pick up some ice first, do you do ice?"
Me: "I've an ice maker in the fridge?" "I like it in tea".
/crickets

I am godless and I do not take drugs and I never will, though I am very far away. I do like dinner though lol nomnom

I'm a drug-free atheistic secular humanist. However, I don't date potheads. It's not that I'm opposed to marijuana use; I've just met very few people who can use it in any sort of moderation. And moderation to me means maybe every once in a while, at most once or twice a month, for relaxation and nothing more. Does that fit your pattern of marijuana use? I doubt it. ...Glass houses, mate. Think about it.

I here you. I have never driven 90mph up the wrong side of the road stoned. Everybody to day seems to be custodians of modern chemistry. Which I don't understand because they don't look like they don't look like their having fun to me. Being stoned is fun to me, and I'm still in control of myself.

You might have to add that to your dating profile..no drugs, beyond occasional pot.
If the person seems dodgy., be ready to move on.

It could be where you are living? Some areas are hit harder by illegal drugs than others.

I'd be so shocked if anyone I knew were doing that level of drugs?

My ex became a pill head, it changes them! He was always a pot smoker, but then he became " friends" with a girl whose husband was a pharmacist. He would give her put, she would give him pills. They ended up breaking up two families. He did stuff when he was on pills that totally went against his nature! Pills suck!

You're a little far for me to have dinner with, but I hear you. Everyone got an addiction these days.

At first, I read your first sentence as "addicted to math." I would say yes to that, but not to pills, etc.

Society is not well. I live in a small town with 5 or 6 liquor outlets, kids under 10 roam the streets until just before closing time because we all know where their parents are. Other parents sit on their driveways and dope out listening to loud music for hours while their kids, almost toddlers ride and run out in front of cars. Then the parents abuse the cat drivers for hitting their horns. I really should live on my own island.

Ha! I have been saying the same thing about men! My ex was an alcoholic, dated a guy after the divorce who smoked pot 24/7 to the point he couldn't even get it up. I don't care if one smokes or drinks as long as its in moderation, other drugs are out of the question. The struggle is real!

I used to do lots of things but now nothing because I have an addictive nature and I'm very all or nothing.

I think you did the right thing ending the date there and then.

Stick around a while, you just never know - you wouldn't be the first person to meet somebody from Agnostic.com.

I will barely even talk to someone who doesn't smoke weed. They seem WAY too tense and busy for me. But I stop there. Well, maybe shrooms. Shrooms are actually the safest drug of any with many positive psych effects. But that's all. Well and this remote control. So weed, shrooms, this remote control ... and my dog Pook. And this chair. And thats all I need.

I smoke weed like the Thomas Fire is coming for my crops. That’s all I do, except the occasional drink. My awesome atheist girlfriend is completely sober if caffeine and nicotine are excluded. It’s pretty fucking great.
I’ll check in a minute, but it sounds like you’re from southeast Texas

I'm a coffee-head at worst. Beyond that, I'm a total atheist square. So yeah, we're out there.

I am 80 years old and I have never smoked, drank, did any drugs and to this day have no desire to do so.

It is an epidemic. I suppose life has gotten really hard for the middle and working classes and that's the way a lot of people are handling it. Add to that Doctors habits of way over prescribing and you've got yourself a society wide crisis.I won't touch any of that stuff and am really wary of prescriptions.

Yes, yes there are women who are very much into being reasonable grown ups when need be, and know how to be a “fun date” without being a pillhead or addict! Why the heck are you in Tennessee when I’m in Florida? Lol....

No drugs or drinking for me. Neither ever really interested me.

Drugs no. I do probably drink too much

It is your Life. Your choice of Poison. Your choice of Mate. You set your Boundaries.

In a N.I.D.A study U.S. 2013 study 9.4 % did illicit drugs and around 6% had dependence and problems with alcohol. So not every woman has an addiction problem. I think you had a run of bad luck. I have had some bad dating experiences in life (I.e., end up married to a jerk, end up not married to a perfectly good guy that I should have married, and some weird ones in which I met a guy that told me he had a girlfriend and she wanted to be involved in the experience). FYI: I am another godless woman that would not know where to find meth or pot.

I live in WV, and opioids are the worst here. I don't do illegal drugs at all. I'm just not into that. I've seen the consequences played out with other people and want no part of it. I don't even drink. I don't have a problem with people drinking, but I have dated an alcoholic (and nursed him through his relapses), and it totally turned me off alcohol. I'm not Atheist saint, though. I vape, and I swear like a sailor.

I guess we all have to find our own ways of coping with the stresses of life. Some are healthier than others. And some are illegal for very good reasons.
