April 15, 201412 yr OK. So I'm now 440 days into my quit. We've had a decorator in for the past few days repainting the kitchen, stairs, etc. He smokes. I've had chats with him outside when he's having a smoke break. No big deal. Anyway, I got home last night and noticed he'd left his cigarettes on the counter... I had one hell of an urge to have one! Obviously I didn't. But ya know... annoying!
April 15, 201412 yr PS smokers love a relapser - it makes them feel less guilty - I cant imagine he left them there by accident surely - when I was a smoker it was smokes - check, lighter - check, car keys - check soak them in white spirit!
April 15, 201412 yr I don't think it was sinister, he also has no idea I am an ex-smoker. still douse them in white spirit or paint them - you will feel better :)
April 15, 201412 yr Author still douse them in white spirit or paint them - you will feel better :)Not smoking them made me feel perfectly fine. It's not good business to be an arsehole to someone you leave alone in your house!

April 15, 201412 yr out of the blue ones are hard at times. leaving them there, I bet he was looking everywhere on ride home for them buddy was with me drinking other night, outside so smoke wasnt a bother, but I was thinking "if you could have one and they werent bad for you." knew just one would be a pack the next day...

Oooh look, bananas, yummy... quite fancy one of those... don't be silly, you need to have dinner first... grrr... damn bananas"
