Smoking..............

When i was younger
when ever anyone smoked near me
i would puke............

as i got older i outgrew the puking fetish
mum could not explain it
but we all knew it would happen

i also used to be air sick and road sick
you couldnt have me in the car when u go fuel buying
the fumes........
i would puke

thankfully i no longer puke when someone smokes
or when i fly
or go on a road trip
or i go buy fuel

i have never found out if i will be sea sick.....

i have always known i wont date/marry a man that smokes......

before u all ask if he smokes...
remember there's no he......
my ex was a social smoker
if we were hanging out,just cos his friends did
he would have a few drags
he never did ever take a whole stick
never could u find a stick,match box,lighter
on his person or in his car/abode

my cousin always said so long as he takes a few drags
it qualifies as he smokes..............

i could have lived with that..............


so the last post was basically
some things we say we cant do
but
we find we can do with the other person
when they waltz into our lives

i still maintain...........
never try to analyse what keeps people together

as long as they are happy together

so be it...............

If only life were that simple... Going with the flow is good but one has to know when to look b4 you leap. Experience is so often the best teacher...

There are no instruction manuals on 'life' and no one can even begin to write one. But some things are just unwritten 'truths' that one ignores to one's peril. Still each one to their own...

used to puke at the whiff of petrol and on long road trips as well, we all accomodate a little to move on without fights. I detest Lipstick and Nail polish but i no get mouth yarn

ibiluv said...

@sprezatura........i guess it depends on how u yarn it.........
i once dated a dude who couldnt stand lipstick and nail polish...he would say oh it looks really nice but could u take it off please????

i did stop using nail polish........i still use lipstick though.....but i found out the reason he didnt like lipstick was the fear of tasting the stuff when we kissed.....so it was ok for me to use it if i had on a fruit flavoured lipstick or lip gloss...........*wink*....
