Hi Cybrduke, I wanted to give you a Hipp Hipp Horray!!! on your attitude. " MY MIND REJECTED EVERY BIT OF THAT CRAP." Good for you! I think you read that whole situation correctly. I can tell you my experience with my Mum-in-law.
Her and I were the only smokers in my whole extended family. Strange I know. It was always just the 2 of us huddled out in the cold smoking at family events. My hubby was actually the one that told her I had quit. She didn't say much then. 3 or 4 weeks went by without any contact, then she called one day to vent about her daughter. No mention of my quitting. I, being stubborn also didn't mention it. Another 2 weeks went by, another phone call. She did bring it up then. This is the conversation." I hear you've quit smoking." "Yes, it's been about 40 days now." " How much weight have you gained?, that's why I won't quit, I don't want to get fat"
So like you said, junkie talk. I didn't get upset or was even too surprised by her lack of support. We were in that place not too long ago ourselves. She has since said she is proud of me, but I know she misses her smoking buddy. I will still go outside with her when she smokes, but just because I love her and hope to set a good example for her.
You may yet again run into a lack of support, but you seem to have the right attitude to deal with it. " I've moved beyond that. I know better." AWESOME!!
