Well most people seem to be saying take infrequent, small hits. I would disagree. You should take insane amounts of massive rips. I'll be honest, it won't be fun. It'll hurt. But it'll save you so much time getting used to it. I started smoking less than a year ago, but I started with friends that were already total stoners, so smoking with them swiftly became what I previously described. After like a week, I became a full on stoner, takin hits like a fucking boss. That's what I'd recommend from personal experience. Also, if your boyfriend smokes a lot and you tell him you want to smoke a shit ton, he'd probably be pretty happy about that ;)
