> Does anyone NOT like weed?

Yes, there's people who do not enjoy it. There's also people that don't enjoy, say, tomatoes, and there's people that enjoy killing. What people enjoy and what usually isn't a good argument.

People make a big deal about it because it's illegal. People make a big deal of drinking because they want to pretend this which affects everyone does not affect them. There's many reasons why one would make a big deal out of something.

If I understand correctly, you don't smoke weed but all your friends do. You explained the details, now I'll explain the situation completely.

You see, a "high" from weed is (of course it depends on quantity, quality, method of consumption et cetera) quite unstable - if you're not entertained it can be quickly turned into boredom and depression. The problem is that nobody wants someone unhigh around when they're high in their place (not outside). Why? Because it ruins the fun. It's like a lesbian party with a redneck fatass in the middle of the room watching.

My suggestion is to either start smoking cannabis and hang out with your friends again, or explain to them that you won't "ruin" it for them and ask to come together. Say "no" when they offer you a puff, and don't hassle it - avoid talking to them about what they "should" and "should not" do et cetera. Try to be less authorative and less minding that they're stoned. Another option is to stop caring about them and go find other friends. Perhaps some day you'll hang out with them again, perhaps not, it doesn't matter to you.

I'll try to give all the possible answers for your question with thee information at current,

> So am I just being "immature" here? Am I the one making a big deal out of things? There's got to be somebody out there that feels the same way I do.

I'd say your friends are immature. The fact that they talk to each other about this activity, that they get high, and the fact that they let others know it, are signs of immaturity. As for you, perhaps you are, perhaps not. If you are, or if you think you are, I explained in the post what I think your options are.

You can also get informed about cannabis about things such as the ways of consumption and the cons of each for ones health, its history as a plant, both in culture and legal-wise. You should also learn the laws about cannabis where you live. Lastly, it's essential to avoid talking about it or showing in some other way that you participate in such actions, both for aesthetical and self-interest reasons. (the former includes what people like you currently feel against others that talk about it, and the latter includes the freedom of one - not getting into jail)

Also I suggest that you keep in mind that cannabis increases the senses and doubles the feelings. You'll feel twice as happy, twice as sad, twice as excited, et cetera.

Thus, things which will be plain when you're not high, might seem very exciting and interesting when you're stoned. This is not an "official" description of Cannabis' effects, but rather an empirical one, from my POV. It is benefical to be aware of this and keep it in mind at all times, for cannabis can turn you into a fool, if you do not enjoy it correctly. It is less of a problem if you do not care about it or if you're already a fool who does not care about it - but you should ask yourself whether what you think to be good for yourself is really good for yourself since you previously admitted to being a fool.
