I (22M) was just taking my wife (22F) and she told me that she was on the phone with her best friend from back home and he hold her that her sister did c**e at a Halloween party. The way she said it already put me off like it was nothing in the first place.

For a little back story I am in the army and waiting to get medically discharged and move back to my home state. I have plans to go to business school and culinary school so I can take over my dads restaurant. Because rent in my home state is so high i agreed that her best friend and sister can move into what ever house we get, i was already reluctant on that idea but i also know it will help us save money.

Anyways, after she told me this i did get a little heated and started blurting out my views on dr*gs and said "If that ever comes into my house i will kick and participating parties out no question" she then shut up and just looks away like she always does when she gets mad like im attacking her directly even though i felt as if though i was just voicing my opinion on the matter

We stopped talking for a few minutes then i started again saying "w**d and sh**rms is one thing but anything other than that you are going into dangerous territory." She's the type to believe that you cant even get addicted on m*lly or w**d, even though her family history is very addictive.

She then started saying that there was always a few things she always just wanted to try but she has already tried molly and acid once in her life so i don't see the reason to want to try anything else. She also smokes constantly and i cant really remember the last time i saw her completely sober.

I ended the conversation when we got to her work by saying "The fact that you want to continue to experiment i think is really sad. We are a married couple with dreams and aspirations i dont want drugs to ruin the future for us" She got out of the car without even saying i love you or a kiss goodbye now im wondering if i was just overreacting or if my reasons were justified.

Am I the asshole?

I wouldn't say your an asshole but you seem to have pretty different stances on drugs, Imo a little experimentation is a good thing if done responsibly as long as she's not fucking around with crack and opiates however I do know for a handful of people cocaine got its claws into pretty bad. I get your just looking out for your loved ones too and I respect that, nobody's an asshole here
