I would arrange for her to pick it up and when you see her approaching you, light up a cigar and start puffing, building up a large cloud of smoke that she will have to wade though to get her stuff. :-)

for something that starts out saying you were the perfect couple or she was perfect even ... .makes you wonder what your definition of perfect is.

The attitudes of friends and significant other’s can impact your enjoyment of the hobby. This ranges from participating or encouraging - to ambivalence to darn right opposition. The real challenge is that attitudes sometime change - and never underestimate the power of the anti tobacco lobby to change hearts and minds.

I just want to be accepted for who I am - beer belly, cigars and bald head. Pretence is a terrible thing as you will only be lying to yourself.

An understanding partner will live with it and still care about you- even if they don’t like your smoking as they perceive it to be detrimental to your health.

To me it’s more than cigars or whatever other flaws you may have - I want to honest with myself and anyone who chooses to care about me.

Rant off. Preacher mode off.

Try a Por Laranaga and see what the poet is one about!

That’s not a bad idea!

She was like I told you to never smoke and what are these and how long have you been smoking and I said about 7 months and she was like well you should have told me when you started and not hid them from me. Then broke up me. We were the perfect couple.

Sounds to me that you were far from the perfect couple. Perfect couples respect each other, and each other's hobbies. She didn't respect yours, and you didn't respect her by lying to her and hiding your hobby.

It hurts now, but I think that in the end, you will be much happier with a new, supportive, girlfriend. Remember what Zino Davidoff said "If your wife doesn't like the aroma of your cigar, change your wife."

Yup.

Best to have you vices on table very early into dating. Perhaps a picture of you with a cigar if you do a dating site. Smoking a cigar, cleaning your guns, wearing the t-shirt of your preferred political party. Maybe not those exact activities, but you get the idea...
