anyone else have this dilemma?

My GF asked me tonight if it was alright if she smoked a couple of cigarettes tonight while I smoked my cigars? I am writing a research paper tonight so I'm on my Macbook outside all night tonight. 4 cigars here I come!

She is not normally a smoker but being a teacher and this ending the first week they are back before school starts on Monday, she has been under a lot of stress. Thus the smoking?

I never smoked before 4 years ago. I always look down on cigarettes as a nasty habit. I did see it as that. I do not have a stressful day and need to smoke a cigar to cope with it.

I told her I guess I could not really say much as I'm out here puffing away. I told her it would be hypocritical of me to tell her no.


what you guys think?

She has smoked cigars with me from time to time, which I thought was cool. This just seems different?

Just a thought: Offer her a cigar?

I don't personally mind cigarettes but I've only been smoking cigars all of like...two weeks. Maybe it's a habit I'll grow to dislike overtime, who knows.

That's a tough one. If I can not get a cigar then I might go for cigarettes but cigarettes are definitely more of a nasty habit and don't smoke them hardly ever. Although I do get a buzz off cigars but not like cigarettes.

I would tell her how you see cigarettes compared to cigars. And offer her a cigar if she still wants cigarettes then I guess all you can do is nothing.

But cigarettes are inhaled and that is just a whole lot more health problems than puffing. There always is chew but you don't want to do that to much cause of the high acidity and sugar(nicotine) levels.

Cigarettes are a world apart from cigars - that's a fact that's too often lost on the general public.

As Mast3rshake says: cigarettes are a drug delivery system.

Cigars are designed for flavor & relaxation while cigs are for a 'fix'.

I would encourage the enjoyment of a cigar for, not least of which, health reasons as well - Cigarettes are extreemly difficult to quit once a habit has developed.
