I am amused this is argued now. Back in the day (waaaay back) everyone KNEW pot was addictive. Addicts were called....potheads! I dated one guy who turned out to be a pothead. He smoked all day every day...at work...before work...after work. I had to break up with him even though he was so hot. Next I dated a genius artist who also turned out to be a pothead. If you hang around potheads you smoke more and more and more. After that, for me...NO MORE POTHEADS. The next guy I met hardly partied at all. I married him.
