Hey Mammakitty! Sometimes husbands are morons, and sometimes its just us. I don't know your circumstances, but sometimes, I know my feelings are my own, and not caused by him. My point being he doesn't cause you to feel the way you feel, you do. Guys are so out there, they can just be or exist and not worry about anything, and we're so not like that...we need to have meaning for every feeling. Just give him a kiss, and realize, maybe he needs alone time, or to just sit and be, and maybe you can take some me time too. Tomorrow is another day and another chance. :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/5/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 173 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,325 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1,825.15 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 21 [B]Hrs:[/B] 2 [B]Mins:[/B] 34 [B]Seconds:[/B] 4

Mamma, You don't want a smoke cause you know it wont make you feel any better. A smoke isn't going to make the sadness go away. It isn't going to make hubby change! This is your quit no matter what! You chose to do this for you so remember the reasons why you wanted to quit. (((Mama))) Deep breathes! Find something to pamper yourself! do your nails? ?Lolo [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]8/18/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 6 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 120 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $27.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 13 [B]Mins:[/B] 37 [B]Seconds:[/B] 6

Okay mamakitty - I'm not unhooked or aloha, but I am here. Funny, I just posted on another thread you were on. Then I was surfing and found the following [i]ere's a cheerleading statement for ya: It's OK to want or need something from someone else.[/i]. Does that look familiar? You wrote it to Joyfulspirit on day 1 -- I am so glad you are here and looking for help. I don't know your situation and my experience with emotional rejection after 16 years of marriage ended...well, let's just leave it at ended. All I can say is you need to be strong for you and those lovely girls you described in another post. That means you DO what you have to for your buddy and you. Is your hubby a smoker? Does he feel abandoned because you quit and he didn't or maybe insecure because you changed the routine by quitting? Do you want me to come over and beat him up? I can you know! You are too sweet to be so sad. No - you will not smoke tonight. You have come SO far - maybe take a warm bubbly, listen to some music and relax. Read a book to take your mind somewhere else. Most important - breathe and realize you are worth it and this is YOUR Quit and you are doing it! To coin unhooked's phrase -- WOO HOO! My thoughts and prayers are with you tonight! Big Big Hugs!

Ohhhhh, mamakitty, boys are stupid. Throw rocks at them. I'm here for you, hun, for whatever you need. Sadness is a big trigger & I'm really proud to hear you say you know you won't smoke. You'll get through this & it sucks, but you will be proud of yourself when you do. Want to go to the treehouse? We could do each other's toes, or dance to Elvis 45's, or eat Haagen Dasz till we puke. Whatever you need, name it. Never be sorry to ask for help, I owe so much, I pretty much just sit around & wait for someone who needs help! Hang in, you're doing it.

Oh dear all... (Unhooked and alohakeia I put help in the title for special report/support from you.) I'm experiencing big time emotional rejection from my hubby tonight. I won't smoke tonight. It's too late, and I'm too sad. I also have a younger buddy to be an example to... Just sad and I'm so sorry I have to ask for help. It's lonely tonight... mk [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]8/14/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 10 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 150 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $37.50 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 2 [B]Mins:[/B] 59 [B]Seconds:[/B] 30
