Is ignoring an apology rude?

[Gypsybell]

Doesn't answer the original question which was, is it rude to ignore an apology?

It's not so much rude as an indication that the appology is not acceptable. So your Bro is not about to be placated just because you want him to be. Accepting an appology is much the same as saying 'I forgive you". He doesn't. At least not yet. So its a stand off. You would be better to just allow a cooling off period for both of you. As I see it, you are still of the opinion that he deserved what you said to make him cranky so you really don't want to appologise, you want him to see it your way, and he doesn't want to.

So until you both mellow and realize its not worth a family feud over, then just leave it be. Of more concern is your mental state. A bad drug reaction is not likely to be improved by another mood enhancer. I know you kids really believe that weed is a harmless drug, but take care, The sinergy of pharmacological inbalances can be lethal and marijuana takes up to a month to leave your system, presumably the other drug has a residual effect as well. So you are not out of the woods with your mood swings by the sound of it (you are agro big time!) try not taking any drugs for a few days and drink at least 2 lites of water a day to flush your system. Take it easy, kid, there are more things to worry about than a a bit of a row with your brother. He'll get over it, just hope you do.

Yes...I think it is

Ok, I know this won't help but here we go...

The meds I was on were not prescribed to me by my usual dr who thinks I shouldn't have been given them in the first place. THEY caused the dark thoughts. The pot was to bring me back to myself so to speak and it worked. Within an hour of my first cone I was much better. I don't need a lecture on the dangers of mixing drugs. I know what is ok these days and what is not and I now know to trust my instinct when it comes to prescribed drugs because that is the second time I have been prescribed something that didn't seem to sit right with me and the second time I have had an adverse reaction. I know I don't have the most stable mental state, I know pot isn't the answer for that and I'm now seeing both a standard psychologist and a small team of drug and alcohol counsellors. Thank you for your concern.

Anyone worried about the safety of my child need not be. He is perfectly safe.

You and your husband smoke weed while your child is there without anyone else (SOBER)looking out for him ? You're so ****ing mature. No wonder dpml thought you're a pmsing teen.

While you may be right, and I don't know the OP, your generalization makes you look irrational. Some people can smoke responsibly.

People, smoking weed is NOT like drinking alcohol.

You're kidding me... Don't tell me that after smoking weed people are completely sober . I smoked so I know how it feels. It is different than alcohol, but people aren't completely normal while they are high. Seriously...

I agree. Though once you have a tolerance having a pipe or 2 is no different than codeine based painkillers or being exhausted.

Yeah the problem is, how much you have to smoke to be tolerant to a pipe or two. I'm not a big amateur of weed,I agree, and one pipe smoked just by myself would probably kill me. I mean, I would puke all over myself .
Btw, I wouldn't give a codeine as a good example for something without any influence on the behaviour. One pill of codeine was always actually making me sleep.

And I'm not sensitive to everything person. I can drink and mix alcohol(wodka and whiskey and tequila and beer and you name it, I probably just would drink a parfume or denaturated alcohol) all night and I still come back home on my feet, don't throw up and prepare a tea for my sick bf.
Those other things had such an influence on what was happening with me that I cannot agree, that people can be fully sober with it .

Define "responsible".....BTW smoking pot and drinking booze in excess, both have long term side affects,none of them good.When you cant get hold of it, you go into withdrawal, and become irritated about little things.
I talk from experience, as a former user of both, but at different times in my life. I have since found healthier options, such as work and sport...Just something to think about.

what is this thread about?

[rafterman]

what is this thread about?

Its about drugs..mmmkay?

[misombra]

mmmmmmm drugs are bad mmmmmkay?

[mwahahaha]

what is this thread about?

It started off with someone asking if it was rude to ignore an apology and descended in to the usual sanctimonious drivel about drugs and how evil they are. There was also something about a toilet seat being left up. The piste a la resistence was some dude laughingly suggesting that "sport and work" were healthier than dope, lol. I googled this, over a million people have died either at work or during sport. No one ever died smoking weed. Why let the facts get in the way of a good preaching.

For me, even after quitting for a year it only takes me a few sessions to get my tolerance back. It sucks but it's true.

I've been smoking on and off for 15 years. I gave up while I was pregnant and my son was 1 before I started again (hubby's dad passed and my family moved in with us for 4 months. If that's not a trigger, I don't know what is). Since then it's been a back and forth battle for me to regain control. Over the last 6 years I have been straight for nearly half that time. Latest trigger was my brothers moving back to town.

Alcohol has actually always been the hardest for me to handle. Some days I feel that my biggest problem is legality.

Hahaha ah! Thanks for the giggle man. I like it.

So no one has ever died in a car/industrial accident because they were stoned....Great story.
Just keep smoking drugs, its heaps better than sport.... apparently
