I don't think that there's anything at all judgemental about "those' ex smokers. It's HARD to take. My mom never smoked, and her husband smoked for a couple years while in the military. He quit many many many many years ago, and he STILL can't stand to be aorund smoke. My mom, who's never smoked, does fine and it doesn't bother her.
My husband was tkaing me out to eat afdter I had quit for 2 days for a reward. I guess that neither of us were thinking at all about a casino being a really stupid idea because when he told me that someoen had told him about this restaurant they liked in oen of the lcoal casinos, we decided to try it.
He opened the door to the casino, and it was like this HUGE cloud came whirling out the door mixed in with the air conditioning, and it just took my breath away. We shut the door, and walked away as fast as we could! I don't know if i'll ever be able to eat in that restaurant we heard about. LOL
Yesterday we met my ex husband to bring my children home, and when he pulled up to the meeting spot and opened his door, I groaned. I didn't ahve any control over it at all.. it just freeking STUNK! My children STUNK too.. I bit my lip until we got home with them and I stuck them in the shower.
You know, i don't ahve any qualms about groaning when a stinky person comes up to me (I did it as a smoker when a person who hadn't showered came into my store too.. it just comes out and I don't know i'm doing it till it's too late), or walking on the other side of the street to avoid a smoker.
What's important is that i don't breath that, or get nausiated by them, or even have a crave because of breathing their smoke. They're feelings aren't my concern, just liek my feelings weren't the concern of anyoen else when I chose to light up in public. I didn't have concern for anyoen else's feelings when i lit my cigarette.. so why should they care about me?
