Anyone else go through a period where the dont enjoy smoking

[cigarmouth]

Everyone I know has attacked me for making a choice to smoke cigars and pipes, my wife does not like the smell of cigars and wont kiss me after I smoke one, even if I brush my teeth. Although she likes the smell of the pipe, she still wont "let" me smoke inside.

So, with everyone making me feel stupid for smoking, and not being able to smoke anywhere but outside in the wind I'm almost at the point where I could really care less about it.

It's been several days since I've smoked and dont know when I'll smoke again.

I'm totally shocked by how poorly people are educated on the differences between cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. Seems everyone thinks that my love of cigars and pipes somehow makes me an evil cigarette smoking, lung cancer loving, tobacco supporting, spawn of the devil who wants everyone to die.

Although I do not deny the risks to my health, since I do not inhale and from what I have read, I feel little risk is associated with my choice to smoke.

Who knows. At least with all that is going on in the world today the problem I'm having is of little concern.

Anyhow, any of you ever go through a period where smoking provides you little satisfaction?
