My ex girlfriend from college actually got me to start smoking again, and shes the first person who pressured me into starting smoking with her during our freshman year of college. she had been a smoker through high school and tols me she coulsnt date a non smoker and it was the 90s so of course I started smoking with her everytime she offered me a cigarette… was the
Of course I got addicted, but nothing like hers. She smoked all the time, two to three packs a day. She seriously couldn’t go a half hour without a cigarette.
after college She got a job working from home so she could smoke whenever she wanted. Of course her smoking sky rocketed after that – I don’t think she ever smokes less than three packs a day now
26 years later and she still is just chain smoking away – and still coughing constantly and hacking up nasty brown phlegm
I went out on a date recently since I’m recently divorced and she just moved back to town
Man shes still pretty but also looks rough. Skinny and she’s only 46 but looks more like 60 or older. smoking has wrecked her
She tells me she spits up blood every morning and is worried because she doesn’t have insurance anymore since she works as an independent contractor doing medicall billing review
Even though she’s still rail thin she’s so outta shape she can’t even walk up a flight of stairs without wheezing and gasping for air
Even lying to her insurance company she still can’t afford insurance
Her 14 year old daughter used to beg her to quit smoking but apparently now she started smoking cigarettes herself and her mom just lets her – even buys them for her – no kidding she was even secretly smoking cigs while baby sitting!
Anyways it’s crazy stuff. I smoked for 24 years myself and quit 2 years ago… after my own daughter was born
but Now that I’m back wanting to see my old ex girlfriend again- I found myself buying a few packs and smoking again
she kept offering me cigarettes and asking me to please go out to smoke with her so she didnt have to smoke alone out in the cold on our first date in 25+ years! so with her begging me to smoke with her of course I said yes
Crazy how easy it is for old habits to creep up on you!!!
