How do u feel/act overtime smoking weeed?

Slow down buddy!! Listen I smoke weed and have for YEARSS lol. I am what you call a functioning pot head. I've graduated college and I work full time. Never stopped smoking and probably won't until I'm ready to have children. Alot of people say it's a gateway drug which is all bullshit because I've never touched anything other then weed and alchol. At the same time I have MANY friends that don't smoke weed and it doesnt make our relationships any different from those that do smoke. Other then we smoke together. Honestly, I know this isnt the answer you're looking for but if they're your friends and you don't feel comfortable doing it then they shoudl understand. A real friend will understand. Don't give in to peer pressure! Anything you do should be based on what you want to do. And the effects after smoking weed, you'll be very mellow, have some munchies, laugh alot, and probably want to go to sleep, since this would be your first time, also it only lasts about an hour if that.
