shipoker55: I am a total social smoker and drinker. I live alone and do not smoke or drink at home. I do, however, drink and smoke a cigar when I am at karaoke. This being my only social event. Sometimes I only drink soda ans still smoke a cigar. Sometimes I drink gin and tonic and don't smoke at all. You can, indeed be a social smoker


swisher sweet cigar?Or macaneuto .Just wondering.

Not to change the subject.laugh wave

Oh and.....cheers

Sommerauer71: There are two elements to this.

In profiles, I believe that smoking socially means exactly that. In a social environment.

Is smoking social?

Depends on who you are with?

In the UK it is banned from public places.

Where I live in Austria, it is not.

If I am with people who smoke then I will, if I am in a group with people who do not smoke then I will not.

I do not smoke in my house, car, I go outside.

So the smoking ban has not troubled me, because I do it at home.


But you are a smoker whether you smoke with people or alone.crying comfort

simpleparadox: Many a profiles on dating sites say that the person whose profile u r visting smokes socially!

Smoking indeed is an adult choice. Yet, I wonder whether there can be such a thing as "smoking socially"? Can smoking really be social, even if it is to socialize with those who smoke?


rolling on the floor laughing yeah I think some people can.

Yes... I have had friends and relatives who either only smoked a few cigs when they drank or when they came to visit me cause I am a bad influence....any other time they didn't smoke...smoking smoking smoking roll eyes grin

Nicotine is a powerful addictive narcotic....Period!

Sorry but claiming to smoke "socially" is a cop out. It proves the smoker is in denial about being addicted to nicotine.




HAHAHAHA
Yeah, like I only use heroin socially


(Don't worry I don't!)grin

gongman: I was in France when the smoking ban was imposed.Apparently being forced to go outside to smoke has actually engineered the circumstances where people strike up a conversation,and this has led to relationships being formed.

Gauloises have a certain "je ne sais quoi" over Woodbines anyway .


Ouasi..je suis daccord avec çawine

Great way to chat up women, very good way....

There are far more pot smokers, and truth benders in the world then there are "social" cigarette smokers...

everytime I see social or occasional smoking on a female profile I assume one of the above,

with a willingness to have my mind changed if more facts present themselves.
