Cigars and your Significant Other - Page 6

She can only blame her dad for my love of cigars now.

Mattso3000 · 08-04-2012, 06:36 AM

She tolerates it.

RickT · 08-04-2012, 10:44 AM

My wife doesn't mind. She actually bought my first cigars for me from a B&M as a surprise. I used to smoke Swisher Sweets before I stepped up to real cigars. We used to enjoy going in to the Outlaw Cigar Company (Kansas City) near the grocery store we used to shop at. Used to love walking in to the Humidor just for the smells. She thinks it's cool that I buy bundles/boxes on the cheap and put them away in my Vinotemp for a few months. She has actually bragged to co-workers how I "age" my own cigars. So yeah, I'd say she's supportive of my hobby.

Same here. Hey at least it ain't crack....or is it

I voted that she supports me....for now....

She wanted me to start smoking for several years because i have always used snuff. Once i got started and she is seeing the stuff coming in, humidor, etc. she is giving me the funny looks. We'll see how it goes over the next few weeks and I may have to reverse course...lol

My wife gets just as excited to try a new cigar as I do! It is hard to find a woman that will put up with your crap, take the life of a Navy Wife, and like a lot of the same things! I got lucky!

My wife is my smoking buddy more often than not. We usually burn one five nights a week after the kids go to bed. Building my smoking lounge has made it easier on her as it's temp controlled. She never liked smoking in the summer heat.

Ah yes, I believe you two were smoking at the Cigarfest preherf!
Indoors would be soo nice these last couple months.
They are actually opening a new lounge about 30 mins from my house. It is a new CI store!

Sumatra Samurai · 08-07-2012, 01:40 PM

My wife is cool with it, I just have to brush my teeth before a kiss. Still can't get her to try one though...

Buckeye Jack · 08-07-2012, 01:49 PM

I was already way deep into cigars when we met. If she hadn't been OK with it, it wouldn't have worked out. Now she has one with me every now and then.

Lol, ironically you have pics of her smoking but absolutely NONE of me......gonna plan the same herf again so I can redeem myself this year!

Big Maduro · 08-07-2012, 11:08 PM

Mine hates it. She only tolerates it because I quit cigarettes and drinking.

gnbikes · 08-07-2012, 11:26 PM

Sigh, I really have it good. My lady bought me another box of cigars tonight. I feel special...

If I had one of these significant other people, Im sure she would love it or she would stop being so significant.

theonlybear4CORT · 08-08-2012, 03:53 PM

Mine complained once. Then pow rite on the kisser!

When I came too I made the decision of smoking out in the backyard or garage but not in the house.

Brandon · 08-08-2012, 07:10 PM

My wife knows how much of a part it plays in my life. I didn't hide it when we were dating. If she had a serious problem with it when we were dating, we would have never gotten married.
