Thanks:smiley20:
i have a question for you,emp.......is there anything about her that you wish she wouldn't do...anything about her that you'd like to change??.....
or is it strictly a one way street.....??....
think about that....and once she has your balls...you can't even borrow 'em for a night to go out with the guys...
Dude, I'm not gonna be as hard on you as these other BOTL's, but make sure you really know why you're doing this.
If you're on a mission to be completely healthy, you know: only eating organic, unprocessed food, exercising, etc... then that's cool. I've got some friends who have no issue finding their sac, they just want to be healthy man killing machines (quite a few are involved with the martial arts).
BUT, if it's anything short of that, religious, or health reasons, it's not worth it. My wife doesn't like when I smoke the stogies, or when I drink (not because I'm a mean drunk, but because drinking adds weight I don't need), but she knows that's one of my things, one of the ways I enjoy life, just like she enjoys shopping or going to a mall to unwind.
So, make sure you know why.
Empire was in trouble. After being married to his wife for one year he forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was really upset. She told him, "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE!".
The next morning Empire got up early and left for work.
When his wife woke up, she looked out the window and sure enough there was a small box gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway. Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway, brought the box back in the house. She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale.
Funeral services for Empire have been scheduled for Friday.

2006 Suzuki 1000. This bike is perfect! It has 1000 miles and has had its 500 mile dealer service. (Expensive) It's been adult ridden, all wheels have always been on the ground. I use it as a cruiser/commuter. I'm selling it because it was purchased without proper consent of a loving wife. Apparently "do whatever the f*** you want" doesn't mean what I thought. Call me, Steve. (801)867-8292
Haha, you guys are great. I dont mind the hard responses here because they are truthful.
The reasons she doesnt like it is religious for her, but not so much for me.
Im still confused on what im going to do about smoking, and with her. If I dont stay with her, will I start smoking again? Maybe, but its not a sure thing.
Thanks for all the responses from you guys, some of em are awesome.
Heres another joke that kinda goes along with this thread that came out of Maxim magazine last month...
"Ive been making alot of freudian slips lately" a man tells his pal.
"Like what?" his friend asks
"Well, last week I asked a train conductor for a picket to Tittsburgh ."
"I did something similar the other day" says the friend. "My wife and I were having breakfast and instead of saying 'Honey please pass the
butter,' I said 'You bitch, you've ruined my life!'"
Ill keep you guys updated and let you know when and if she finally does get to keep my balls in her purse.
haha, good one. Having riden bikes though, this is a little different situation.Quote:

Well to get a fair analysis if this will work for you, ya might want to look at the war in Iraq. The attempt is trying is to assimilate these two regions of peoples but religion is playing a big role and I just do not think there will ever be a wedding, let alone a happy marriage.:smiley28: :smiley41:Quote:

Those things grow and fester and before you know it the women you vowed to spend the rest of your life with is the person you hate the most. You can never be truly happy unless she supports you in what you do and vice versa.
My wife hates smoking. She can't tolerate it from a physical standpoint. But she knows how much I enjoy it and NEVER complains about it. For my part I NEVER put her in a situation where she is in contact with it. It's something I enjoy, not one of the things we do together. Emp, I encourage to talk to your gal about more that the cigar issue. This sounds a little extreme but you should make a list of all the things you care about and your dreams and aspirations and she should too, Compare lists. If they're too different you guys need to re-consider your next steps.

Exactly the same situation that my wife and I have. I have created a cozy little spot in my garage where I can work on my laptop, read the paper, do some woodworking, whatever and enjoy my smoke. My wife likes to do crafts and junk so she has a room in the house with her stuff there, when she wants to work on crafts I smoke or vice-versa, or neither.....works out great. Understanding, empathy, and comprimise......LOVE!:smiley20:Quote:

BTW, I am a reforming cig smoker, so I used to spend a s-load of time in the garage compared to what I do now......and she loved me back then too.
Wow. I never thought this thread would go on like this. I have though taken everything you said into account. Shes actually out of the state right now and I already know how Im going to deal with it. Its going to be up to her if she wants to stay together, but I dont know if shes going to want to after she hears what I have to say.
Wow is right bro. the thread states " I think", yet other posts go deeper: such as- religious reasons. What religious reasons? I do not know of a church besides the Mormon church that condones smoking?
Small, minor habit compared to most. Shit!

I sincerely hope you plan to tell her to take you like you are or forget the whole thing.
Never EVER change for a woman. That's wrong on so many levels. And yes I speak from experience.
Well actually she is Mormon and shes out of town right now because shes in Utah visiting her family. I have no problem with Mormons or the religion or I wouldnt be dating a Mormon. My best friend also happens to be a Mormon too, but I didnt meet her through him.Quote:

Dude, with all due respect if she's a Mormon I'd get out now as fast as you can. The Mormons, JWs, and several other cult-like religions are so friggin whack I don't even want to talk to them.
Mormon, jeez.........:smiley21:
I've worked with and have had many friends who are Mormon. They are actually wonderful people. I have enjoyed their friendship over the years and have never had anyone try to talk me into anything or give the slightest hint of judging me in any way. But they are very close knit both personally and professionally and I am sure marriage would present a whole different set of expectations.
Do you even know any people of those religions that you just mentioned or its just the stuff you hear word of mouth or through media that you dont like?Quote:

Im not so religious myself, and there is alot of stuff I disagree with from every religion, but there are also alot of things I do agree with form many religions.
er.... 'scuse me, pardon me. I've stumbled into the wrong room or something.
Since I'm here...:smiley4:
I got plenty of advice from friends and family before I proposed to and married my wife. The warning flags were all over the place; I just refused to acknowledge them.
I'm NOT saying you're making a mistake (I don't even know the young lady). I am saying that it's hard to listen to advice you don't want to hear. Especially when you're in love.
I should have listened. That's all. It was the worst mistake I ever made. The daughter of Satan could not have been any worse. I could tell you some tales...

If YOU want to quit smoking for your OWN sake, then by all means do so and don't look back.

Good luck, sir.

Just because they've been around for a couple hundred years doesn't make them legit in my book, only more dangerous.
But you still have yet to tell us what you plan to say to her. Sounds like you've decided to make a stand and that's a good thing. You need to make yourself happy first. Smoking a few cigars and having a drink now and again is no-ones business but yours, not some whack religions.
Brewdude is absolutly correct. Giving up cigars and drinks is minor compared to the rest of the story.Quote:

If she doesnt want to deal with that, then Ill end it.
You guys say stuff like I dont know the religion and what Im getting into. I pretty much know what its about and Ive even been to Mormon church. Im actually baptised catholic, but I dont practice it.
She gets back today so Ill let you all know how it goes.
you're talking some sense,emp...a successful relationship needs compromise and sacrifice from both parties....if she's not going to be agreeable,it's time to move on.
So emp, what's the deal? Didja dump her or are you gonna toe the line and become a Mormon?
Well...
I was going to post a pic of me smoking a cigar and drinking a beer, but I havent had time to take a pic. I sitll havent had time to even smoke a cigar, tomorrow night I will though.
Kinda funny how it happened though. I caller her, and she said she coudlnt talk because she "had a friend over." I knew something was up so I went over there and sure enough, she had some guy there. Long story short, he wouldnt come to the door, and I told her to never contact me again, ever.
Oh well, thats life right? I think it makes it easier to get over actually because it ended like that.
Luckily he didnt come outside because I would probably be in jail right now for kicking someones teeth in.
Glad to hear it worked out for ya':smiley1:
Edited to add...Never trust a bitch that wont let you smoke
Hey Emp,
It's a blessing in disguise. Believe me.
Hey, enjoy a cigar and a beer. I'll have a few for ya too.
:smiley20: :smiley41:
boy,are you lucky...you have no idea....enjoy your life without her...
Holy hypocritical.
She's giving you crap about smoking and drinking yet is getting railed by some other dude.... f' that. Consider this something positive and move on.
Welcome Back To The Living Bro
He did you a favor...:smiley20:
Dude, you've been to a Morman church? I didn't realize that they let in non-Mormans. What is it like:smiley25:Quote:
