in trouble w/ the boyfriend for saying the truth to a friend

People are too concerned about their fucking image. The way I see it, if you act a certain way, or do a certain thing, you shouldn't hide it so much just for the sake of looking good for some people. Everyone at work knows I smoke pot, all my friends, and mostly everyone, save my parents (whom I will tell once I'm not living at home). That's who I am! Why hide anything I am from anybody? Why do you all do it? If you really want to hide something you should keep it entirely to yourself. There are things about me that no one will EVER know, because I will never tell. That knowledge is exclusively mine. But if someone DOES know something, it's their right to share that information to whoever, because I let it out. If you go around bragging about what a stoner you are, don't you think that it shouldn't matter that your friend/girlfriend/whatever tells someone they trust? I mean, not like the authorities. Someone who doesn't care. Christ. Don't wait until the damage is done to say you want something hidden. I can't change the type of person I am, and I am one who talks. I share things. I'm not going to cover for someone and make up reasons why certain things happen. That is lame. Admit what you are, or change until you don't mind people knowing what you are.

REASON for all of this ranting:

I told one of my best friends (who happens to be in her 60s) that my boyfriend isn't living at home because his parents found his bong and he hated it at home. So I told him that I told her, and he blew up, because only HE can decide who knows how much of a stoner he is. Yet at parties and with old friends who don't smoke he brags SOOOO much about how much pot he smokes. Why does it matter that I told someone I'm close to? Just because she isn't 18, or what? I'm sorry for all this anger, but... gah. It's frustrating. I know many of you hide what you do because you HAVE to(for the sake of relationships with parents, or people that just don't get it) , and I completely respect that. But when it doesn't matter who knows, why should a person hide it? I think that's two-faced. My boyfriend can't get away with pretending to be such a good boy to my parents and old friends when he really isn't. Feel free to yell at me for this, or give an opinion or something. I'm a little too mad (and intoxicated) to see a different point of view at the moment.

 

first off say this " dont tell anyone what im about to tell you" if u agree then they tell u and u dont tell anyone, if u wanna tell somone or u will, then say i dont even wanna hear what u gotta say or ill be tempted to tell someone... its common since.

 

i dont hide the fact that i smoke weed but it pisses me off because about 3 times a day at school people i realy dont even know ask me to score drugs for them,i get pissed just casue i smoke weed that means everyone has the right to ask me for acid and shrooms and coke,and its not like these are people i like or are firends these are people i hate and dont want to talk to, and everyone one think im a complet moron which also pisses me off untill they actuly talk to me and they find out different,i dont like being sterotyped but i am

 

I let everyone know I smoke pot. Hell my Carreer Connections teacher would make sure to let me read my class journal entry thing out loud if it had anything do with pot because he felt that it was something that needed discussed, so yeah, it didn't take long for everyone to figure out I'm a stoner
