Guest SquidMom Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 How old is this guy? Is the pot smoking a new thing, do you know? If you know him pretty well, it would probably be okay to just go visit him and let him know that you understand he is grieving, and that you are worried about him and his smoking so much. If he really doesnt want you in his business, he might tone it down so you won't have an excuse to bother him anymore.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annewandering Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 If you know him well you might tell him the smell is getting to be overpowering and that some neighbors might be inclined to report him. He might need someone to listen to him. The pot is not good but with his wife dying it just seems like piling on pain to get him arrested for it. He is clearly not thinking well at the moment already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMGuy Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 I can't imagine how much pot he would have to be smoking for multiple neighbors to smell it unless you are in an apartment....and even then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could smell it very easily. It STINKS and is very strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuroTypical Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 If he was smoking copious amounts of pot, would he be doing anything illegal? It depends on which state you're in... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like he's going thru depression. So if you do say something be prepared for anger mostly. And don't take to heart anything he might say. In order to make better choices about the pot he needs to be in a healthy state of mind. I would just let him know that you are aware ( you can never understand someone else's grief) of his loss. Ask him if he can make sure his Windows are closed so he is not likely to upset any neighbours with it and I would invite him over for dinner. Don't push him to join you and if ur declines like most people will drop off some left overs so he's aware that people do care about him. It might take some time for him to start talking. It's then and only then will he be more understanding about stopping the pot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
