I'm almost 39 years old and I have spent my whole life hating cigarettes. I took 2 puffs once when I was drunk at a party in high school. Coughed my head off. I thought cigars smelt like dog turds. I wouldn't even date girls that smoke.
But several months ago I was at a friends house and he was smoking a cigar. For the first time I thought it smelled good. Needless to say I have been enjoying cigars ever since. I have 2 humidors full and I'm looking for a larger one. I only smoke once or twice a week though. I enjoy it when I can relax and sip on some Crown Royal.
My doctor told me that he would categorize anyone that smokes cigars more than once a month as a "smoker". Of course, I didn't tell him I smoke cigars. But I was floored.... How could I be put in the same category as a 2 pack a day smoker. I don't even inhale. The doctor's forms ask "do you smoke... Never, always and used to". What!!??!! That was the only choices? Ugh!!
What do you think? I'm I a smoker? Do you consider yourself a smoker? Do you agree with the doctors assessment?
