Family and Friends

[hali]

Do your friends and family know you are a smoker? How do they handle it if they know? If they don't know how do you handle it? Do you feel like a sneak? To me it doesn't make a difference my friends that are important to me all know I smoke, some of them smoke with me. Both my parents know, I smoke w/ my mom. The only people we hide it from are the in-laws but we are sure they have an idea.

Our friends all smoke too, so no big deal there. We hide from our daddys and our moms know or suspect anyways. Hide from my brother because he a snitch, and smoke ith my sister. All his sisters and brothers smoke.

All of my friends are smokers my parents have no idea. When I was 19 my dad caught me smoking, called it a marijuana cigarette, and freaked out. It's better he doesn't know, what they don't know can't hurt them.

many of our friends smoke so they all know, as far as family goes my inlaws know because they smoke to, my parents are against it so we figured there is no reason why they need to know.

Only people that don't know about me smoking are my inlaws, but they might have a suspicion. Practically everyone in my family smokes--brother, sister, mother. My wife doesn't, though, but she's ok with me smoking--she's not one of those types who wants to change somebody. Frankly, I wouldn't care if my inlaws knew, but my wife doesn't really want them to because they are kind of uptight about stuff like that. Whatever.
