the money and lifestyle are too good to quit growing
yes, you have it correct there...
the friendship and sex are too good quit the relationship.
NO!!!! that is INCORRECT!! lol sorry for the shouting. you are a high-value, sociable guy who has enough self-control to grow weed without actually smoking it (i would call you fucking insane but hey that's me ). you tell her what she gets out of the relationship. she complies with your wishes. you do not comply with hers.
this is where you get jedi mind trick and shit on her. ask her why she can't just trust you, and if she had someone betray her trust in the past. it isn't about her, but she is making it about her. so go ahead and make it about her (that's what women want in every fucking conversation anyway, my friends lol). ask her what her problem is. pretend you are really upset about the fact that she can't just take your word for it, and you wonder why she can't drop it.
i would turn it around on her. besides, if you cave on this she will walk all over you until that friendship and the sex turn into so-so and you are pissed off that you tore your shit down for a bitch. i know this part from experience.
NEVER TEAR YOUR GROW DOWN FOR A FEMALE.
females come and go, man. they always feel like they won't, but they always do. and when they don't, you wish they did (and they you). we have set ourselves up for misery-eternal by pretending we can be satisfied with the same thing/girl over and over again. the only gal that fits that bill is mary jane...
good luck brotha. may the force be with you.
