My friend is telling me he won't smoke weed, all his friends do but he was saying how he was going to with me, then saying he was tricking me, but I am going to get him to smoke that day. Any suggestions?

Well honey, if he hasn't fallen to peer pressure yet from his own friends, there's probably a BIG reason why he hasn't. It seems he's already made up his mind NOT to smoke, for whatever reasons & since he hasn't allowed his decision to be swayed by a GROUP of friends, it's unrealistic to assume that you (just ONE person) could undue his final decision.

If he doesn't want to smoke, don't make him. Hey, if you want to, that's your business but if he doesn't want to, then respect that. You never know why he decided not to. Everyone has their own reasons that could range from family problems with drugs all the way to them simply just not wanting to.

He might've been "tricking" you or testing you to see if you'd fall to the pressure but that doesn't mean that he will. Idk why he was teasing/tricking you but it's obvious that if he hasn't picked up the habbit by now, there's a good chance he won't. And if he does all b/c of you, Idk if that's necessarily a good thing ;~/

Sounds like he was indeed tricking you to me. He obviously doesn't want to smoke but he was interested in seeing if you would respect and support his decision - as a true friend should - or try to force him into doing something he doesn't want to do. Giving you enough rope to hang yourself so to speak.

If you carry on applying the pressure instead of acting like a friend should then I'm fairly certain he will smoke on that day. His temperature will boil, the smoke will erupt from his hears and he will explode as only an Aquarian can.

You can't make an Aqua do anything...we are fixed to the max! In fact, it's rather common to tell an Aqua to do something and then they will go out and do the exact opposite or ignore you.

So good luck with this one!! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Yup. Just be insistent about doing the opposite of what you want.

But if he knows that's what you're doing then it could get complicated. Maybe if you say it while you're doing a headstand or bending over and talking between your legs then...I don't know...see, I'm getting confused, so anything can happen at that point.

Are you also going to do the part where you talk between your legs (my suggestion)?

And in pig latin, I want to add. "On't-day moke-say eed-way!"

"Make them do something"?

You can't, we only do it if we want to.

We are people, not a "challenge". And we're not stupid, so forget that reverse psychology rubbish because we're already playing it with YOU...but you don't realise it.

It comes down to respect. If we say "No", we don't need to justify it, the answer is still the same and you either respect it or you get lost.

Pushing people to do something will only cause resentment and you really don't want us to break out the passive-aggressive retaliation tactics.

Give it up, there's more for you to smoke if you do :o)
