Couples and Cannabis: The Love Triangle
Slowly climbing out of a taboo, a couple meets and wonders if the other will accept that herbal skeleton in the closet. Both know it’s harmless and relaxing, but not something that’s worth missing a potential lifetime opportunity.
Good thing the couple is in agreement.
Its history of enhancing a conversation and igniting relationships allows couples to dig into a part of someone who would’ve had to hide their affinity for the plant. With that, new conversations once feared to be spoken out loud are now spoken in platforms of medicinal, recreational, and financial.
Talks can become less superficial with increased clarity and perception. It creates the potential to get lost in a conversation that lands you somewhere you’ve never been — leaving knowing more about a person than most since many can’t share that sort of comfort with something being hindered by stereotypes.
As we excuse those who drink their reasons and responsibilities away, Mary Jane relaxes our minds as we clearly comprehend the circumstances to rectify our battles. That longing for cohesiveness in a group smoke session holds same when reduced to just two. One could argue an intensity flux.
Many know the feeling. It’s OK to admit that Mary Jane is a part of your relationship because more couples than you think can thank it for making them laugh instead of cry, relax instead of rage.
It has been shown that relationships where both partners smoke have a lower risk of domestic violence helping to balance out emotion. Putting one’s mind to ease prior to hashing it out gives the debate a good head start. Research suggests that Cannabidiol, or CBD helps in the relief of symptoms in illnesses like anxiety and panic attacks, affecting the same serotonin receptors that are in control when emotions are high.
When it comes to sex, Mary Jane is your friend there as well. Studies have shown that the THC in Cannabis triggers the same sensual nerves that sweaty friction during sex does. We can try to deny the importance of physical intimacy in a relationship, but that doesn’t make it go away. The THC in Mary Jane is a natural sexual boost — ride off that high until it’s time for bed.
It’s proven that lack of sleep will set a stuttering pace of any day and can lead mounts of stress to flow into your relationship. Indica weed allows you to relax when you need to alleviate some of the unnecessary stress. We can’t deny that any type of stress, directly or indirectly, will affect one’s attitude thus giving opportunities for nitpicking.
Relationships will be put to the test countless times throughout its journey. The type of relationship does not change that fact. Using something natural to add value could take your relationship to a level you wouldn’t think of.
How many friends complain about their partner’s nagging? Not wanting to have sex? Nothing in common? Cannabis may be the simpler answer to many questions.
Just remember, cannabis can be a positive tool in life, it can enhance connections, but not all. Some will not accept similar hobbies and it’s important to know that it’s OK. Compatibility is key in relationships and if you find a partner that shares your interests, see where it goes. Whether we believe in opposites attract, or if it’s familiarity in every way, there’s no way around cannabis’ potential positive factors in relationships.
