Cigars & our better half...

[Porch Dweller]

I smoked an occasional cigar; like 1-2 a year occasional. Then my wife and I were stationed in Europe and had access to CCs. She'd be out and around and pick up a couple for me to try. That got me going down my current path. Now on the rare occasion she complains about one of my purchases I tell her it's her fault I have this hobby. When she has to travel on business if she sees a B&M and has some time she'll stop in, tell the guy some of the cigars I like and ask for one similar so she can bring me back something new to try.

<raises glass> Here's to you, sweetie!

My girlfriend (soon to be fiance) tolerates it also. While she isn't a fan, she absolutely hated when I chewed so when I started smoking cigars more frequently she wasn't thrilled, but it helped me kick my chewing habit. Funny this is she secretly likes the aroma. Now that Winter is here I just go out to the lake and smoke a couple in the ice house to get my fix.
