I am newly separated.

My current girlfriend smokes cigarettes and cigarillos. She doesnt really enjoy cigars but like the relax time around it. I actually got more into cigars because we both enjoyed having a smoking session.

She often suggest I light one and accompany me with a cigarillos or cigarette. She even go to the B&M and surprise me with new stogies.

Everyone has hobbies and cigar isn't a bad addiction. Its ok to enjoy what you signifiant other does no matter if you want in or not.

My wife isn't a huge fan, but she is supportive as long as I'm not spending money that needs to go elsewhere (which is nearly all of it most of the time according to her... Ha.). She dislikes the smell of a pipe less, but she never says anything unless I was at a herf all day and smell of an old ashtray... Compared to my cars and gun collection the cost is pretty slim, and I know she likes that. She doesn't harp on the health issues so much. It helps that she was also a stats nerd so she can see the holes in many of the studies that people cite, and I think she's just really glad I don't smoke cigarettes anymore unless I'm getting a tattoo. She does think I have enough cigars and baccy to start a store, but since I've been on a box buying freeze the last several months she has been cool. Can't really complain. I only smoke outside though. With the little one I think she would flip if I lit anything up indoors.

My wife in the beginning wasn't supportive but not she sees it's my outlet and keeps me sane so she's ok; she's just more concerned with my over all health now.. She even says she's upset because she's used to the cigar smoke now 👍👍😭😭😂😂

I started smoking cigars while I was in Iraq (tell me which ones worse for your health lol) & before we were married. Since finding BOTL, cigar buying & smoking has increased, but not so much that she has said anything about it... Other than a raised eyebrow when mysterious arrive in the mail lol.

She'll sit out on the porch with me, or out by the fire, so long as I don't billow smoke in her direction. She'll even tell me which ones she thinks smell better than others.

I don't do drugs, smoke cigarettes, & hardly drink... So she deals with my one "bad" hobby. Somehow, my other hobby, hiking is more expensive & time consuming. She'd rather I sit on the porch for a few hours instead of disappearing into the woods for 2-3 days.

My girlfriend of 2 years is genuinely fascinated by the entire cigar experience. She was never into it before I came along. Now that we're together, she reads all my magazines and insists on trying whatever I'm smoking in order to find her palate. Right now, she loves Dirty Rats and Kristoff Maduros. It's pretty awesome that not only does she accept it but she encourages it.

I didn't find my love of cigars until after my divorce and before that I smoked cigarettes for 14 years which I quit three years ago. Smoking cigarettes is cheaper on the wallet but cigars are much better for the health (than cigs) and the soul. As for a woman.. I'll find one that either enjoys it, or supports it without resentment and nagging. I won't settle for less.

My wife bought me a humidor as a Christmas gift before we were even married and now she's scared of what she started... :) She's super cool though and enjoys a cigar with me occasionally.
