Would you date someone who admits on a second meeting

[Electrascoffee]

They 'occasionally' do cocaine?

When he's tired?? That suggests he needs it as a boost to function. I don't think it's worth the hassle to see him again in your shoes.

I think he's probably one of those people who does it because he's insecure

So he can go away and work on his insecurities. You can't fix them, and neither will the coke.

There is no excuse to be part of the destruction of the rainforests.

@HollowTalk low standards. But zero time for drug users in any capacity, so not completely rock bottom. I was mostly joking, though - I stopped putting up with the sort of shit that is common on this board in my mid 20s.

But tbf, I haven't been on a date since 2005, on the grounds that I can't expect to find someone worthwhile when there's so much work I need to do on my self first...

Nope.
Run for the hills while you still know which direction they are in.

100% no from me, I would "even" meet someone who admitted to cannabis use

Nope! I'm vehemently anti-drugs BECAUSE I'm well educated on them and have personal experience of the devastation they cause.

Megan - on the contrary YOU sound ill informed and very naive.

Coke is highly addictive and very problematic for users. Almost instantly altering the brain permanently.

Maybe when you're older and have more experience of life, including how drug use affects people your perspective will change.

I suspect many of those responding "hell no" have had similar experiences to me.

Megan, I'm guessing your standards are lower than some of us on here. And I'm guessing that the majority of posters on here are more highly educated than you. Sorry.

If you mention something on a second date it’s likely a pretty big part of your life. Go with your gut and don’t have a third date.

No no no

Depends what you're looking for

I have dated a man who did coke when out with his mates etc
He never did it when we were together and I don't do illegal drugs

It wouldn't be a deal breaker for me

No

Absolutely not!

Hell no

If he was a billionaire I wouldn't really care. Otherwise no. A lot of Naice people take coke but how long will it be before he spirals out of control. Its an expensive habit and it is a risky habit. Obviously there are other questions that arise about how reasonable and dependable a person he is. Only a lot of money could mitigate the lack of reliability.

Defo would not . Simple fact that drugs are no good on any one . Imagen if that person can't get there hands on the C . The irritation and the person's train of though would be reflected on your relationship . The person would take it out on you because you will be the closest person to that person . Save your self the heart ake

*Just to be clear he does it to self medicate right? Not for fun? I would never civsider someone who dies that for fun... How boring

No

Self medicate for what . you explaining it like that makes me think 😏 douse he have a medical problem because that take my answer in a different way. If you feel it's ok then no matter what we say only you can make that choice . Good luck

Isn’t there some stat about cocaine use like a minimum of 5 people die for every gram that hits the UK streets because of the nature of the supply chain. It’s an absolutely horrendous drug but the wider social harm is sickening.

I think if you're tired and your reaction is to take coke then that's probably something you do regularly tbh. It's like taking heroin when you're sad.

Kg not gram. But stil!

No.

It’s a turn off.

It is a turn off I agree :(
