My ex used to smoke behind my back. She knew I hated the idea of smoking so she kept it a secret.

I caught her one day when she came home and frantically looked for another shirt.

We got into a pretty nasty fight. She would try and flip the argument and make it my fault. I gave her an ultimatum and made her quit.

*slowly, not immediately go cold turkey*

Ugh I went through the same ****. My ex started smoking on lunch breaks at work with her d bag co-workers. Told her if I could smell smoke I wouldn't go near her, and if she started buying her own cigs it'd be over. Luckily it was just a phase, although I wouldn't be surprised if she started up again after we broke up.

It was both for her best interests and mine. I was worried about her more than anything.

I grew up in a smoking environment, so the smell of burning nicotene and tar and tobacco doesn't bother me.

If she smoked pure tobacco, which she didn't, I wouldn't of been as worried.

Smoking is really lame. Two of my family members have died from lung cancer, and another is currently dealing with it and is still smoking even at old age.

Currently have a brother that is hooked on Cigarettes.


I'm not settling with a smoker at all. Some girls I know took up smoking just to basically look cool and to start up conversations, no joke. So stupid.

That sucks dude. I don't date girls that smoke. My dad and grandpa are basically lifetime tobacco users. I vowed at a young age to not use tobacco. I don't think smoking should be banned or anything or refuse to do anything with people who smoke, but I personally won't.

Yeah I told her I won't tolerate it as I've had 6 family members die from smoking related illnesses.
 
When I find a new girl I like there is always somebody else in the way of Me and her and I can never really win it always happens to Me ! I don't always go for the most beautiful girl in the world.

As a senior in high school, I never really talked to a lot of girls. I had a couple short relationships, but nothing more. I was focused more on school, and other things. My thing was that being single, I could do whatever I wanted with whoever I wanted, and nobody would say a word. And I was honestly happy with that. Most people want a girlfriend, obviously, but I wasn't going to become desperate like the majority of my friends had. I wasn't going to lower my standards just so I could say I had a girlfriend, and be unhappy.

So, I waited. I was patient. I wanted to wait for the perfect girl. If not, I could always wait until college, since there will be plenty of females there lol. It turned out my patience has payed off extremely well. The girl I'm now in a relationship is honestly perfect. She has to be a gift from God. She's actually a model...not trying to brag, I'm just saying how lucky I am and how happy I am that something like this has come along in my life. She is the perfect match for me. To be honest, this is the happiest I've been in a long time.

My ex did that. Went to a friend's place whose parents along with her dabbled in all sorts of silly substances, my ex had her first few cigarettes then and also some alcohol (she was under age at the time). Couple of weeks later she was at work and started smoking with a couple of the adult crew members on break to "fit in".

Ouch. That's horrible. And thanks! :)

Yeah, but we gave up a long time ago. Too many promises broken due to time restrictions, and different schedules.

I got to go over one time, and it was the best time I ever had with her. Also the last time we saw each other, and our last date.

Wow. I'm sorry to hear that. That's rough man. I can't imagine going through that myself. It must've been hard to push through that.

Yeah... we both knew it was bound to happen so it didn't hurt as much.

Skype is good and all, but it's not the same. You can't hug her through the screen or be there for her.

Stuffed now she likes someone else why must it always happen to Me ?

Why do you think you're so special that you're the only guy that ever had a girl that he likes, like someone else instead? Happens to everyone, get over it, move on.
 
Team THRT Drift
Yeah I have friends that do that. I take it out of their mouth every time they light it in front of me.

I can't stand smoking. My mom smoked during breast-feeding - not during the period of it, literally while I'd be there, teeth-clamped - and I had asthma as a kid. I had three different inhalers until I wisely/stupidly took up long-distance running of all things, and somehow my asthma disappeared. I blame growing up in a smoke-heavy household on why I'm slightly south of the six-foot mark, and I remember the permanent stench it left in my clothes, and the yellowed curtains.

...but unless they're smoking somewhere that it's illegal to do so, doing what you're doing makes you the arse, not them.
 
I've been thinking about taking a girl to Maccas for an informal date for quite a while now, and I plan to do it sometime during the holidays if I can. Would it get the ball rolling for a relationship or not?

It's not that I think I'm special and I do move on but it happens to much.
 
Feeling caught up at the moment. Although I've had smooth approaches sometimes,I feel like this girl will make me feel like a moron I'd I attempt to ask her out.

Never knew I'd have a thing for red haired women.

We shall see what comes of this.

:lol: I mentioned her on here and to a few friends. I also mentioned how I made her feel stupid incidentally. Her cheeks went redder than her hair. :lol:

I don't think she took it straight to the heart since she con continues to speak to me. :cool:
 
So, things have been going pretty good with me and my gf(It's the same girl I was talking about earlier). I took her to dinner and to see Furious 7 last night and it went pretty good.
 
Friend of mine has taken a breakup pretty roughly. Just shows how relationships can be both great and bad, though I hope he has learned a bit from it.

I learned a bit about myself after speaking to him about it.

To not forgive a person for their actions is better than hating the person for choosing actions. I just hope that my friend understands that.
