hollow- youre more then allowed to set some boundaries with your partner about it as well! like no smoking in the house, or have one room designated to it for example. when my partner and i first got our house that was a big rule we had prior to purchase (luckily all our rentals didnt allow indoor smoking, so he was already in the habbit of smoking outside ) but we set the rule to garage only, as the previous owners already smoked there so i didnt care but wanted to keep the house clean / smoke free

yeah if you have addictive history in your family it's often best to steer 100% clear rather than be tempted, but it's certainly easier said than done

Mellow,
Yes same here. When I was 19 I moved from my VERY small town to live in dorms at uni 4 hours away. I fell into some horrible habits from my peers. I grew up very sheltered so I wanted to try everything. Vapes were terrible bc they were so easily accessible and cheap enough. And they tasted amazing lol I still have the voice in my head telling me to vape. Even tho it’s been 2 years since I last touched one

Although I stand by it, if you set values and standards for yourself and keep to them you can avoid being drawn into that to an extent

Stress is a big factor in me smoking (and starting originally) - but growing up with my dad constantly smoking kind of helped pave the way, even though I swore I would never do it, as it essentially is what lead him to his grave.

Stress is a better factor than what my dad and his brother were put through as kids - my grandfather didn't want them smoking, so made them sit down and smoke an entire pack together (made them super sick) - but they both just carried granddad's addiction genes and eventually picked it up anyways

I don't like the idea for myself either but I completely get where people are coming from--which is why support systems are so important

I apologize if it came off that way, that wasn't my intention

dimmy that feels dismissive of the struggles with abuse, mental health, and access that a lot of people have which is why they turn to addictive substances

I've never understood the joy of sucking in flavored air 😂😂

See I never had any interest in people who smoked or drank in high school. I avoided them. I'd never date anyone who smoked. It's easy to not get in those situations, you just have to set standards of respect and value for yourself

Yeah, I get that :( my parents ( especially my mum) were very anti smoking so I never got exposed to that really as a child. I’m still fairly young now so living with my BF is my first real exposure to smoking households. It’s been very eye opening

ohhh yesss ... the vapes got me good lol the flavoured ones taste SOO good and gave me a good boost when i was gettting tired at work , lasted longer and were cheaper then constantly buying energy drinks lol

oh yea absolutely, thats how i picked it up a few times, in highschool to hang out with "the cool kids" lol college for the nicotine rush to keep up with my insane schedule of working full time + school full time and all the driving between - and when i worked in a mechanic shop for a bit i picked it up from stress xD

Im the same, I’ve struggled with addiction myself. Especially vapes and alcohol. But im very fortunate to have had a great support system that helped me. A lot of people don’t have support like that. I suppose there’s other factors like peer pressure, wanting to fit in or to use it as an escape. It’s very unfortunate, especially with how detrimental it is to your health

My younger sister smokes, but both her parents (my dad and step mom) smoke, and her boyfriend smokes too so she's surrounded by it. Growing up she swore she never would and didnt want to be like her parents. None of my other sisters smoke thankfully

Sometimes people just grow up with parents smoking (like me) - and sometimes you work with people who do smoke and you just kinda... fall into it. Asking to try one once can make you either hate them, or afterwards you're kinda like "...wait"

I know a lot of people pick it up if their parents smoked when they're growing up and such.

honestly i do and dont get why people start, i personally have struggled with addiction issues and have a very addictive personality, but ive been very fortunate to be the type that im able to pick up and drop bad habbits (like smoking) with no issues lol

Soooo... I’m supposed to give a pretend ‘Maid of Honor’ speech for one of my college classes. Neither myself nor my partner for this speech have SOs, and everything about this assignment is blank slate, even the wedding. So we both have to come up with and imaginary boyfriend for each other.

Long story short:
To any of you writers out there, how would you have some if your human OCs meet if they were to eventually be in a relationship? Accepting any and all suggestions, real or fake.

Met my husband in middle school.
They could have met at a concert, could have met at a hobby-event, in school, at the library, in a coffee shop... literally anywhere.

i mean school is a classic place, maybe they had a couple classes together and became friends, you know walking to classes together and then person one had a crush and asked person two out but person two said no and then after a couple months of not being friends because it was awkward they became really close again and person two started to get a crush and felt bad for saying no so they asked person one out and person one obviously said yes all happy and cute and they end up dating

My hubby and I met in choir. Both of us have a 3 octave range, and often sing parts during warm-up other than our assigned ones (he's usually a tenor, I'm usually an alto). The first week of the semester, we 'behaved' ourselves and stayed in our respective parts. Second week, however, I got to the second verse of the warm-up and realized the person sitting next to me was singing alto while I was singing tenor. We wound up setting a date, and the rest is history. XD
Feel free to use this, and I hope it helps! :)
