Sooo... the wife wants me to stop smoking pot...

I'm kind of ticked about it. I figured if I got a Ph.D., got a nice
CV, stayed out of trouble, stayed faithful, things would be OK. I'm
working hard and I'm doing good, I think.

She knows I was a pothead when she met me. We even had a conversation
about it early on in college, I remember it well - "this is something I
will not quit for you, if we get into a serious relationship, you need
to know this about me." "OK!"

So there it is. Now she's starting to pressure me about it. I've
reminded her about the conversation, and she just grouses, says that I
can't hold her to a conversation we had 10 years ago (and that she says
she doesn't remember), etc. She reminds me that its illegal. She hates
my weekend "wake-and-bakes" now... she says that that's "what college
kids do". She seems to imply that marijuana is something for children
(like, children are supposed to do drugs), and that now that I'm an
adult I should just agree to give it up...

She *did* know this about me. She *did* know it was important to me.
Now she wants to be unpleasant to me about this issue. Its become a
"problem" for her.

I feel cheated. She's a great lady, a great catch, and I love her to
death, but this is really pissing me off.
