These Filthy Hands:I fell out of the cigar loop for a little while. I want to get back into the hobby and, I was talking about it with my girlfriend and, found out that she fully supports me in getting back into it. I'd say that I'm pretty lucky as well. I think that we all have supportive significant others in our endeavors.

Yeah, I'm burning up the boulevard! Thanks for the welcome back! I drop in and out. I've been gone for probably two years now.
0patience:Yep, bored again. So does your wife or girlfriend support your hobby? Tonight my wife came home with a few cigars from the cigar shop and tells me I got $200+shipping to spend on cigars. I almost wet myself. LOL! She got some unexpected money and decided that I needed to re-supply. Gotta love her.
Rain:Stick with it AJ. If it's hard, it's worth the fight
twistedstem:Sorry you had such a bad day brother.thank you for sharing with us.I agree with rain just stick with it.were here for you .
honorknight7:Aj, sorry to hear about that, Keep at it brother you will find something sooner or later, my wife and I both smoked and quit a few years ago (see 10+ years ago), I started going to a B&M back in mid 09 after I got hurt and had nothing to do, around Oct/Nov 2013 I decided to start having them at home to enjoy in the back yard and garage, at first my wife Hated it (smell was her only issue though) someone gave me a mixed bag cigar gift for Christmas and there was a few Drew Estates Kuba's and Dirt's in it, before New years I lit one up out the side yard tinkering, and apparently my wife had the kitchen window open because the next thing I knew she was at the garage side door asking me what I was smoking, I thought OK here comes the (smell is getting in the house speech again) but no, she actually asked if she could try it, she Loved it and has been having a cigar every day with me now (but it has to be a flavored/infused cigar) she now has her own cooler and we enjoy 1-2 hours everyday together (have been 1-2 times something came up and one of us was gone all day) but it has been nice. Only trouble now is when ever I am looking at ordering something she gives me the stink eye if she notices there not "Her" cigars lol
EoL:My girlfriend would definitely not support this... Nor do my parents... It makes it sorta complicated. Considering it means hiding it... I am ganna try not hiding it next time she is here.. so we will see..
kaspera79: EoL:My girlfriend would definitely not support this... Nor do my parents... It makes it sorta complicated. Considering it means hiding it... I am ganna try not hiding it next time she is here.. so we will see.. Right off, hiding anything is not a good way to gain acceptance. A bad approach for many reasons. This may not have a good result.

If she asks I would tell her. Sorry for poor choice of words.

My wife and kids know and are supportive,actually even smoke with me on occasion.sister in law knows her husband smokes too.but my wife's parents are big anti smoke people so I don't talk about it or smoke when they are around.so its a bummer sometimes around the holidays cause we do a lot of family stuff(which is awesome) but I don't get any cigar time in.

I wish people were more supportive about it. Not much you can do. My parents will warm up eventually.. my gf doesn't like smoking at all.. so we will see about that.... lol. anyone have any suggestions? She knows I partake.. just hasn't been in town to see my collection growing. lol
Puff_Dougie:I am blessed to have a wife who supports me and who enjoys hanging around when I'm smoking cigars. When I pick up new sticks, she always wants to smell them before they go in the humi. She doesn't smoke them, but she likes being around when I do. Not everyone appreciates our "hobby" though. Several years ago, wifey and I were at a fancy restaurant in North Carolina and while we were waiting to be seated, she got a glass of wine, and I picked out a nice cigar at their cigar bar. I lit up, and just then a family with a little kid walked into the lounge. The kid pointed and said loudly to his dad, "Daddy! Look! That man is doing something bad!!" LOL
