me and the wife started off the same way she dont smoke never have never will
we have been together over 10 years
at first she hated i somked
so i did what any person who was in love with someone and didnit want them to know what they do
i hide it from her
when we stared living together ..she made me feel like i was still living with my parents, i had to keep cologne eye drops and some time a change of shirt on me at all times
my smoking friend looked at me like i was crazy to go throught all this for some chick .. but like you i was in love, with her and maryjane
what helpme was i was still smoking ciggs at the time so about 99% of the time i just blamed it on ciggs (every time we would kiss she would say i tasted like smoke)
>>>>>>.....fast foreward a few years........>>>>>
now i only have one alotted area to smoke in, which is fine for me , my office which i made a negative pressure room so all the air in the room is sucked out of the window i dont some in the car or around our kids, or in any other part of the house. at times its kind of refreshing... NOW.. she knows that i smokes and is cool with it as long as she dont smell it coming out of my room or on me.. that i can respect, see aa relationship is about finding a common ground to meet at
see by me hiding it for so long from her it allowed her time to get to learn me for who i am not the stoner or thug everyone tryed to make me out to be i keep her away from that life and in return she stayed in my life ....after she found out that i did infact somked weed she was far to inlove with me to let me go ...at times it was the point of many arguements, but i would let her win, because at the end of the day i loved her way more then i did weed
if you decide to take this keeping the to worlds apart route... then keep in mind the $$$ always become a problem. you have to have your own and you have to keep this from her but at the same time give her money ... my job has a credit uion so i have a odd 158 bucks taking out of each check before it is directly deposited into our shared checking account this is my out of sight out of mind money this + the few oz's i yeild every 3-4 months keep me nice and happy + i have the girl of my dreams and she is also happy
i gat it sooooo good now that she dont even know that i grow... she's never been up in my office.. she knows i somke but my area is myspce only i lock the door when i go in and when i come out .. for all she knows i could have another bitch up there living,,,LOL.... when she needs me she just calls the cell i gat a old recliner desk and tv in there. the kids are still young but they are learning not to come to my cave.. the oldest stands in the hall and just calls my name untill i answer ...
hopes this helps
