How private is your live growers???

Hello all.....i am wondering if most grower types are the same personality type as me, most i have meet fall within a very narrow personality. Private lives with
very few interactions.

I am a VERY private person, i rarely leave my home and have basically no friends, and not because im an asshole or ugly in the face. I am just a VERY private person, maybe even borderline social phobia(therapist words) but i have never felt it was a bad thing at all. background....I have a nice home, and everything i need is right here so i never really have the need to go anywhere.
I was injured in the military and maybe my PTSD has a bit to do with this as well...but i was always private.
I just have a general dislike of 99% of people. I dont like talking to them, i dont listening to them>.< im sort of grumpy and mostly go from point a to point b as quickly as humanly possible and avoiding as many people as i can.

My question is how many of you Riu's are the same? Just an idol curiosity.

I have a beautiful fiance and two cats, i know the weed guy and a guy i play Starcraft2 and LoL with on the weekends...but other than that my life is filled with smoking, working out, reading and growing my plants.....and lots of internet surfing.
So it snot like im a shut-in with nothing in his life, i am not depressed or in any sort of mental/emotional danger----
In before: Ander Brevik in the making......

I know a few people with small grows that want to show everyone and a few with big grows that don't want to know anyone, I was very social before but have slowly started shutting myself in.

Its normal, My partner and I are like that. Most people are just not worth the time. I hate clubbing and all that crap and so does she. We are introverts!!! :-)
I'm pretty much the same. If i'm gonna go out dancing i'll school up and go salsa dancing or something that's not simply jumping :D Some people i'm happy to keep as friends, others i ask why i bother with the effort. I've been like this since i was 8 or something, maybe my twin nabbed all of the out and about social genes :D I'm not too fussed, i grow dope and he rolls prison joints :p

At present i live a private life also because of the growing itself. I do not have the luxuary of a basement or spare room at present, as such it is pretty darn easy for anyone to stumble onto my grow at any time. That will change in time though :)
 
i hate people in general, i have a great wife and good cats and an awesome dog and thats all i need. anything else is just window dressing and takes up time i could spend with my family including my grow.

I used to be a very sociable person but am slowly cutting out people. I don't mind talking to people but I've just forgotten how to small talk etc. Most of your so called friends are really just out for themselves no such thing as loyalty etc so I've just decided to cut everyone out besides family.

I'm like that in a lot of ways, but I find that if you never talk about, react to, or discuss openly marijuana, that you can live a normal life. I do the same things I used to before I started growing, only I don't allow ppl over my house.
The only problem I'm having is getting into a serious relationship. I can't find anyone worth risking my security over.
Women are petty, vindictive creatures, and I can be a total asshole so a serious fight is inevitable. I don't need some chick calling the cops every time we get into a fight. Nowadays I can only date for a short time before the girl or I want to get serious and take it to the next level. They start to wonder why I live alone and no one is allowed over, and that's usually when it ends.
Other than that, weed hasn't killed any other aspect of my social life.

Sounds like you need to find a women who has the same social likes as you, maybe a nice woman who is into growing like you, a nice women who is not vindictive, and maybe you should stop being a total asshole (as you put it).:shock:

Reading through the comments I think growing has a small amount to do with your actual social behaviour.

I myself am married, 2 kids (1 boy, 1 girl) and have a wonderful beautiful wife who supports me in everything I do (right down to the trimming) :clap:. I also have many acquaintances (social & work) some who I know smoke and whom I talk with openly about marijuana, and others who smoke and I would not let them know I even tried a joint in my life. :spew:and the one or two others that I smoke with.

Like others have posted here SECURITY is my number 1 objective for me and my family, there is only one other ADULT who knows what I have got and when it is ready, it is my twin brother who is still 35+ hours away.:-P

In all seriousness I think as long as you have a good sense of judgment the people you pick to commune with will reflect the lifestyle you wish to live.

regards,

Don't get me wrong, i don't dislike most people in any way, most people can be just lovely, i just dislike the amount of effort required to keep friends happy, making and taking calls, going out, hanging out playing nintendo and that lot :p When people come over my flat, they can go get stuffed if they take offense at me wandering off and having a shower for 20 minutes leaving them on their own. There are certainly a whole heap of wankers though :D

I also don't small talk much, i'm quite content to sit quietly pondering things, a lot of folks i know can't go 5 seconds withou blurting something out.

I also am a private person and prefer to be at home like yourself.I am not into things like the club scene and don't care much for partying and get togethers.I used to go to clubs and bars and party when I was in my teens and twenties,but even then it never really interested me much!like yourself,I have all the things I need at home and have no desire to seek any fun outside my life that I lead.I have some close freinds as well but always skip out on the get togethers and such!I also know a few people who are like myself,both female and male!I have no desire whatsoever to seek fun outside of the happy comfortable cocoon I live in!I am like yourself in every way so don't sweat it,you are not alone!Capishe?
