Hi Steve,
Weekend's were/are still my hardest times, I enjoy a glass of wine, and once I quit, the wine tasted too sweet, obviously !!? because it's not the same as how it tasted if I have a cigarette with it, obviously !!? I will now have too quit drinking, social life will become non existent, I may as well not go anywhere on the weekend, just go to bed early and get the weekend over and done with as quickly as possible. Yes, this is how I felt, it was awful, and it was all 'excuses' ...but it has been nearly 8 week's since I quit, and Steve, the weekend's do get better, you can drink without smoking - there are no little hint's or tip's I can give you unfortunately. Just believe in yourself, you are better than smoking...don't let something that doesn't have an "IQ" control you...YOU be in control. Maybe you and your girlfriend can quit together? Good luck, and DO have a great weekend.
Jules :)
