I bought a pack of smokes today.

Yep, I bought a pack of cigs today… of course they weren’t for me so no need to yell… lolThis started with my girlfriend calling me to see if I could get her a few things because she’s sick and her husb is out of town. So I went to the grocery store, bought what she needed,stop smoking now, then went to her house.I get there and she asks if I‘d buy her a pack of smokes, she‘d forgot to tell me… I said yeah, sure, what brand you smoking nowadays? She says “Camel Crush”… so I head to the Plaid Pantry…It was really strange. This is the first time I’ve bought smokes since I quit,smoking cessation, and it was surreal. First of all, when I bought em, I felt “dirty” or something, really hard to explain. Secondly, I was such a dumb ass! I told the guy “Camel Crush”, and he brings me this black pack of smokes… ok, my friend is a menthol smoker and from what I recall, menthol always came with some “green” on the package so you’d know they were menthol, so I’m telling the guy “no, she wants Camel Crush Menthol”… he looks at me odd and tells me they are… I tell him no, they say “regular” on the front… he says no, they are menthol too. It turns out you (oh lord, this is hard to explain): my friend, when she lit up, she did this little “snap” thingy to the cig filter… Why am I telling you guys this? I want you to know something: you will get to the point where the thought of buying a pack will make you feel like a fool and like you‘re somehow a bad person… of course smokers are not bad people, but when you’ve been quit for a while then buy a pack, it’s truly a weird feeling… so for you new quits, there is hope, there is life after cigs, and it’s better than life with cigs. So just remember this: NEVER TAKE ANOTHER PUFF! You are worth it!
