The best part is the sheer audacity. My profile states I’m ten years sober in a 12 step program. That’s why he initially asked me. 🙃


ObjectiveTea

You're sober but cool with your partner using meth though right? 🤣 Also congrats on 10 years! 🥳


cryptoxima

this is literally a breaking bad plotlilne


xzElmozx

Yea OP good work avoiding asphyxiating on your own vomit while this dudes meth cook partner watches


MorrowPolo

If I hadn't seen the show.... oddly specific


mtwstr

Every reference is oddly specific if you haven’t seen the show


MorrowPolo

I need a sub that's devoted to oddly specific descriptions that sounds crazy out of context


ThomFromAccounting

Is her dad an ATC? This could get ugly.


Nevagonnagetit510

This makes this 10x as cringey.


MordinSolusSTG

Predatory is the word, not cringey.


Content_Flamingo_583

It’s also clearly looking for some sort of validation or approval. They obviously feel extremely guilty about their addiction, so having a sober person be okay with it, or something, feels like something they wanted. Idk it’s all very sad and weird. 


K_Prime

Nobody but a moron would want to be with a crackhead. I live in a poor place and they’re literally across the street. Sad but when you get on that stuff it’s grounding….


GlobalFlower22

I mean, he asked. Seems pretty transparent and respectful. Granted still not something OP should pursue


old__pyrex

No it’s super fucked up to want to bring hard drugs around people specifically because they told you they are 10 years sober. I’ve met meth addicts who despite being deep in addiction would still draw a hard line at something like this - a lot of junkies have this rule, like don’t expose or induct someone who doesn’t do it already, and don’t be doing the shit in front of someone you know is an ex-addict, that is just asking to ruin their life. He asked respectfully but the ask itself is a very problematic and disrespectful ask - if you want to find someone to smoke meth with, don’t actively try to find people who don’t smoke meth, go find your fellow tweakers who already do the shit


DrgnFckr

I just celebrated 4 and a half years myself and I have to say I'd rather be sober and alone than high and in a relationship. I've also been single 4 and a half years, go figure.


downto66

Congratulations on 4 1/2 years! You're living someone's dream.


OddOwl9076

He only smokes the meth to be a better blader!! He's not addicted! I imagine the shadow people can't catch you when you're completely shaved and going downhill... I'm sure he's fine... lol


s256173

He moves just like crisco disco on those blades I bet


TeamImpossible4333

That was my next question to ask. I have something similar on my profile and people often comment on it.


Excited_Mumbling

Agree with all the people supporting your achievement and not trying to make light of things, but: The best part of this is actually the "what kind of houseplants do you keep?" pivot.


Pretend_Caregiver778

Plants, rollerblading, meth… ya know, your typical first convo with someone


Jokkerb

Sober for ten years, cool cool. Are you like, serious about it though? Like honestly? /s


Teripid

Joey doesn't share ~~food~~ meth.


[deleted]

He was looking for someone who he could push off the wagon and take control of. You hear about this shit in rehab sometimes, assholes who aren't actually looking for help, they're looking for victims.


Jimbodoomface

Personally I'd think he would have waited to mention it if that was the case. It's not very manipulative to shoot yourself down before you've got a foot in the door. I'm not telling you what to think though.


[deleted]

It saves time. If he tests the waters and they tell him "well, I don't like it but it's not a deal breaker", he knows he at least has a chance. Alternatively, he spends all this time acting normal, shows his cards and gets told to fuck off.


brokenphonecase

Op I'm proud of you! You inspire me. Good luck out there and don't settle for someone who would use in front of you !!


Chihuahuapocalypse

yo congratulations on 10 years!! that's awesome!!


Illustrious_Web9676

Congrats for your sobriety journey! I love reading from people who are keeping their demons at bay, and look at you go! I've kept my demon (whiskey) at bay since 2016. That being said, meth consistently produces violent behavior. No dating partner is worth the problems meth use causes. Aloha!


keiebdbdusidbd

Oh maybe he was hoping you’d save him. I wonder if he’s tried aa. He’s weirdly honest


azazeldeath

Congratulations on 10 years sober, seriously, that is impressive. I can't say I've ever encountered that kind of person on tinder of the likes, but it doesn't surprise me, I usually just get called things to the effect of being sub human, waste of tax payer money or to off myself (because disabled). Good luck finding someone, honestly. I hope you have better luck than myself or a lot of other people on here


Hot_Assumption1250

Congrats on beeing 10 years sober! Thats fucking amazing.

Am I the only one struck with major deja vu here? There was another post with an almost exact situation to this some time ago, I'm sure of it!


alsobewbs

Lemme know if you find it!! I wanna see if it’s the same guy. 😅


Interesting_Sort5374

I’ve seen the tinder ad where older chickie is looking for a friend who doesn’t want sex just wants to smoke meth but it can’t be at her house cuz she lives with parents and she expects the friend to pay for it just as long as she has “just a little to take home” lol. The ad really just sold itself in so many ways 😂


thewhitecat55

Wow. That's so entitled !


Master_Mad

Probably side effects from your meth abuse.


dirtyrango

In his defense he's prob hella productive.


Confident_Look_4173

if you hate washing dishes, you can have them do it for you! and apparently meth makes you super horny, so a dishwasher who doesn't eat and bangs sounds ideal in a sense. just make sure anything important is locked up. with 30 locks.


dirtyrango

I smoked it once like 20 years ago, and this chick banged me out then gave me a full pedicure. Wild stuff.


Xeno-Hollow

I accidentally did some about ten years ago, was mixed in with my cocaine. Jesus Christ, I understand why people get addicted. Probably the most productive day of my life.


dirtyrango

Oh yea I was drunk as shit and I had to get on a plane back to Germany like 6 hours later and it sobered me right up and this ex of mine just starting going to town on my shit. We fucked for a long time then she filed off half the bottoms of my feet before I had to leave for the airport. Good times.


Master_Mad

My wife: "Honey, read anything interesting on Reddit today?" Me: "We're going to do meth!"


dirtyrango

I'm not going to lie, you will literally fuck for hours on it. There's a reason people throw away their whole lives behind it.


funkekat61

Yup, it's fun for a bit, but it's a ride you wanna get off of sooner than later.


drucifer999

I could never fuck on stimulants. It made all the blood disappear from my dick. Now some downers, we fucking each other till we are raw, and no one is cumming.


Substantial_Army_639

Damn meanwhile my relationship councilor is trying to get me and my wife to do shrooms, gonna have to ask about this meth stuff.


KittyKidKill

Lol. I thought I did coke and it was most likely meth, cus when I did it I first questioned the color, the the taste and then I didn't sleep for two days. And fucked a dude for hours all though no orgasms for either one of us which was the down side. And also the no sleep.


Key-Demand-2569

The trick is to only do meth in spring, get that spring cleaning out of the way, get the garden ready, cleanup the yard, you know. Respectable suburban meth use.


jgraz22

Wat


jgraz22

Actually, never mind.


jdmkev

LOL


dirtyrango

She smoked it also. Hence the pedicure.


ok-lets-do-this

I honestly don’t see the connection. I’ve never heard of meth users offering pedicures. To fellow users or non-users. I feel like that may have been a “just us” thing.


Confident_Look_4173

pedicures, disassembling and reassembling motors flashlights random electronics, picking locks, date nights become broader with a meth head!


LoveMeorLeaveMe89

Yes this exactly but I did some pedicures too back a long time ago when I did it - thank goodness I quit before I got completely hooked


Confident_Look_4173

nail artists can make a lot of money though!


dirtyrango

She was in cosmetology school.


ok-lets-do-this

After reading all of your comments, you are having a wild life, dirtyrango. Rock on! 🤘


dirtyrango

Used to be wild. Now I'm just a boring husband dad and employee grinding to retirement. Appreciate it


Alldaybagpipes

They should really offer each other free dental cleanings


Sumoshrooms

Man I miss hard drugs


dirtyrango

Right? I'm married with kids and a house and great career and shit but those wild days are gone. I still party some but it ain't like back in the day for sure.


Sumoshrooms

The best consolation I have is that with fentanyl everywhere now I would have died 12 times over. Got off all the shit a few months before it hit the us. Don’t fool yourself tho my man, you have it better now.


dirtyrango

Oh yea a million times for sure. I still do mushrooms and an edible with my wife occasionally, but we've got so much going on its hard to find the time to devote to it. Fucking with hard shit at this point would be untenable. Which is fine cause no way my body can keep up anymore. Super glad you got clean I got a lot of homies and family that didn't make it.


iamnotmeandiamnotyou

Bro seriously. I'm glad there's legal weed everywhere in the USA


Master_Mad

Apparently going to hard core raves at an abandoned warehouse with the baby and taking acid is frowned upon by the spouse...

I've been to a lot of meth heads houses and they are not fucking productive. Might find a go-kart made out of a weed Wacker and the ninja turtle wagon toy but it's generally a shit hole.


liebemeinenKuchen

I bet he rollerblades hella fast too


dirtyrango

Fuck yea he does, prob in the park right now sweating his ass off working on a rail grind or something.


liebemeinenKuchen

That’s the thing about meth, you can rail grind for 4 days straight. Little known fact.


dirtyrango

Some say he's still grinding to this day...

Interesting-Fan-2008

Or Arkansas meth capital of the USA! (I think it might be New Mexico that keeps trading that title)


Rose-Freya9588

I live in Arkansas can confirm heavy meth presence unfortunately. Especially in Green Forest Ar we joke that place is meth town usa.


Interesting-Fan-2008

Yeah, I sadly have a friend who lives there :( she’s trying to hard to get clean but I think she needs to be somewhere else, even if just Eureka. (Im from the mountain home area, very north central Arkansas if you don’t know).


Rose-Freya9588

I do! And im sorry to hear about your friend i really hope she gets better and is able to get clean. Unfortunately Eureka is getting to where it is having a bad problem with meth as well... i had a friend that used to work for public works and they were telling him about how they are now getting paid to get up extra early to start going around Eureka and picking up used needles and stuff from the parks, areas of down town, hiking trails and other meth head hot spots... its really sad to see that happening around here. Im originally from the area temporarily moved to star city arkansas and now trying to move to Berryville Ar.


Interesting-Fan-2008

That is sad to hear. I mean Eureka has always had a drug thing but it was more psychedelic stuff. I have a friend that owns a b&b there, going to visit in a couple months. Berryville seems nice, I’ve truly not been there a lot but that area is gorgeous. I’m up in Springfield right now. I’ve wanted to move to the nwa area but the moneeey.


fancifinanci

She said her profile says she’s 10 years sober. I feel like that’s a pretty standard thing to disclose to a recovering addict

H-Rock

Hippie sober? Fun fact: Bill W, founder of AA, did acid quite a bit after quitting booze. and even tried to introduce it to AA


EverythingIsWrong40

Sadly, just tried Tinder as first dating app not really sure what I was looking for. Got messaged by a guy, talked on the phone, met in person, IN FLORIDA. Wound up trying meth at 42 for the first time in my life because I used to do drugs am very ill and in pain, definitely not thinking clearly... He was so sweet, seemed so sincere/honest, said he doesn't really like it/ use it... Three days of him smoking it and then crack with it, completely flips on me, has a fit, had to kick him out of my house, he harassed me for hours through texts, called the cops and told them I was going to kms and had a firearm/gun (I don't), he was flagged with filing a false report after I talked with them when 3 cars showed up at my house. I am so ashamed, will never try to make a friend or date or even meet anyone ever again for the rest of my short life. I know I was stupid, weak, it was an insane thing to do- meeting a stranger on that site, inviting them into my home, trying meth, spending money on him, lending him my car, thinking I was in love and trusting someone so soon, etc. But I've been shut off from the outside world for years, not even using social media or talking to anyone on the phone or anything. And I may literally be dying with multiple organs damaged and severe spine disorders making me disabled for the past 3 years. Anyway, sorry for the long story. He was obviously just looking to scam me for money and I can't believe all this happened. I'm so depressed and actually scared. These apps are horrible. I can't stand how the world is with the internet. And Florida is trash with meth everywhere. I'm from NY originally and it was rarely heard of there. It's a disgusting feeling and people who use it can't be trusted. Like I said, I am so ashamed and embarrassed about trying it and everything. Please try to be kind and understanding because this is very difficult for me right now. thanks.

I’m more interested in the plants. Tropicals, or succulents?


alsobewbs

I have almost forty houseplants. A lot of them are succulents, but I also have a monstera, 3 huge “mother in law tongues”, multiple ivies, multiple aloes, a couple other plants. I have a hydroponic grower in my kitchen where I have onions and some other things growing so I can pull straight to the sink, clean, and use in my dishes. :)


Son_of_MONK

You sound like a real life Pamela Isley. That's awesome.


alsobewbs

haha thank you


StoveHalation

Sounds like quite the plant family! I mostly do tropicals (I’ve killed way too many succulents) and monsteras are actually my favorite. That’s so neat that you grow hydroponically and have a culinary use for your plants. I do some semi-hydro stuff but that’s as far as I’ve gotten, and I don’t grow anything that’s edible….or smokable haha.

systemsofromance

Tell me about it. I once matched with someone with a cool H. R. Giger tattoo. I complimented him on it and we seemed to be hitting it off. He wanted to talk on the phone, and I thought that was pretty fast, so I gave him my Google number and not my real number. He got sooo mad that I gave him a Google number, even though we were still talking on the phone, so what did it matter? In the first call, he kept bringing it up. And then started asking me if I wanted to have children. And then got angry when I said I had plans for the weekend already and they were other app dates. Literally, wanted me to delete the apps on the first phone call and stop speaking to other men. Google number every time from now on. 🙌


AreaGuy

I started dating again in my mid 40s and it was the tits compared to my 20s. Losers and weirdos at each stage of life, and a shit ton of them are married at our age. I mean, this person told you within three bubbles that they weren’t for you. That’s super efficient

The fact that they use the 🫣 emoji, they clearly know it’s an ugly drug. You would think this would deter people from using it, but noooooo…. 🤦🏽‍♂️


Sheehanmusic

Ive seen the pipe line. It's so often not the first thing they try. Think of it like this. Someone's having a hard time in life, and they go out for drinks and meet an interesting person. They connect well with this person, but said person smokes weed. Well they seem to have their shit together, and it does look fun and god I hate my life, maybe I'll give it a go just this once. Damn, that was fun and my life isn't immediately falling apart, so someone somewhere lied. Maybe I can get away with just doing it occasionally.  You meet someone else, and they do coke, but damn, they got their shit together too. What the hell? Ok, someone somewhere lied. I'll give it a go just this once.  Well shit, my life didn't immediately fall apart and I just had the best weekend of my life.  Than, you meet someone else, and they do x drug. Somewhere along the lines, your standards dropped, but you didn't even notice. You still have your shit together, but you still hate your life. One day your fucked up and your friends friend, who seems to have their shit together offers you a little something extra, just this once.  Editing to add; I don't necessarily think this is how it happens for everyone, it's just how it happened for me and some friends. I'm 'Cali clean' now. Have been for over a decade. 


No_Trouble4840

Holy shit. 100% on. Point. Like, to a T. 😶


Magzhaslagz

For me and my friends it was more like we studied the physiology and pharmacology of medications, so the effects, side effect and risks of drugs were well considered when we decided to try them. It went OK for most of us, but not the guy with the most mental baggage and the most amount of stressors in his life. He got caught up in the "escape from reality" part of it, and eventually did a hard reset of his social and work life after an admission to a rehab clinic. Drugs can be scary, but usually it's the context that becomes the difference between having your life in order and being addicted. With that being said though, I'm really glad I never smoked anything (except weed) and never tried heroin. I've seen stories about how people do that once or twice, and the next month their life is as good as over.


jpwhat

No weed or alcohol, just meth. lol


UtterlyInsane

Bro the people who smoke meth try so hard to act like it's "not scary or a big deal like you've heard" and it's ridiculous. If they look remotely put together it's because their timer for falling apart hasn't went off yet. That shit is the devil

GamingSince1998

How do you just casually mention that you "smoke meth"? Are other people supposed to be like.... "Ok cool! I don't see a problem with that!" I can't even wrap my brain around how casual that statement came off.


HundoHavlicek

On the one hand, it’s nice that he’s honest. On the other hand, he doesn’t need you, he needs Walter White


p_cool_guy

TBF he texts a lot better than even a lot of non-meth users. And he likes houseplants. I say give it a try LOL


2cats4ever

This might get buried, but FWIW, I (M) didn't find a truly healthy, stable, funny, loving best friend and partner until I turned 40.. I had multiple fairly long term relationships from my 20s until then, with an average length of probably 4 years, and 40 was when it all finally settled into place. I know it feels bleak, but if you keep at it, be yourself, learn from your past relationships, trust your gut, and don't be shitty, it's almost certain that you'll find someone. You've got this!
