Semi-vent, feeling down about post:
>bf is 4 years older than me
>partied and experimented with drugs before we met
>bad experiences with people/drugs/alcohol decided to quit all of them permanently
>we meet, date for 3 years
>me being younger, want to drink and smoke pot while I don't have responsibilities (I'm the age he was then)
>he respectfully declines to join me
>can't drink or smoke with my best friend
>feels bad man
I would never force him to, it just makes me sad.
I've got the same age gap and problem with my boyfriend. Be happy that he doesn't tell you that you can't do that shit at all.

There was a time when we did have that issue when I was actually underage, but he drank way underage for a long time. Since I've turned 21 and we lived in a recreational use state, most of those issues disappeared.
Does your boyfriend tell you that you can't use period? That would be shitty.

Hey. At least he is cool with you doing what you want. You should really have another best friend, though.

You aren't wrong. I am a recluse/hermit so I don't meet people. Take courses online, no job yet because we're moving soonish so I'm waiting to see where we wind up.
I do have a lot of internet friends through Twitch - but I'm not sure if that counts. If I could have more irl friends that would be nice.
