Would you be bothered if your DH shared a cigarette with another woman?

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Nope. We're both antisocial smokers so may well share a fag with a kind smoker of any sex when pissed

BusterGonad · 24/12/2018 08:15

Why are people saying 'yes I would, he's a non smoker' for goodness sake, I think we all know what the op means! Jeepers, sometimes I think people are purposely annoying!

fadehead · 24/12/2018 08:17

Nope

messyhousetidymind · 24/12/2018 08:17

No

I think it would depend if he ever shared cigarettes with anyone or if this was a once off. My hubby used to smoke and he never shared with male or female so if I saw him sharing one day I would think its out of character.

Truckingonandon · 24/12/2018 08:20

I would. I find a man smoking deeply sexy (I know, I know) and intimate and so I wouldn't be impressed.

Mookatron · 24/12/2018 08:21

I dunno. It's one of those things that could be very flirtatious if you wanted it to be. If I was already suspicious of the relationship I wouldn't like it. But on its own it doesn't mean anything.

Thankssomuch · 24/12/2018 08:21

As a stand alone thing, no. If you have concerns about him beyond this then I would suggest talking about it with him?

HeddaGarbled · 24/12/2018 08:22

Hmm, I don’t know - I bet he wouldn’t do it with a male colleague nor her with a female colleague. It’s flirtatious, isn’t it?

Rockbird · 24/12/2018 08:25

We're not smokers but if we were this wouldn't bother me. It's hardly sharing saliva is it?

MoreNougatThanCougar · 24/12/2018 08:26

Yes because he doesn't smoke Grin

But if he did smoke I wouldn't be bothered.

Janedoe5000 · 24/12/2018 08:30

Smoking is for smelly losers, so there's that.

As for sharing: you obviously have insecurities you should probably be honest with yourself about.

Janedoe5000 · 24/12/2018 08:32

Also, you have to remember that people who smoke are weak-willed addicts and will do anything to get their fix. If all that was on offer was a go on somebody else's then I'm not surprised he took it or vice versa.

Branleuse · 24/12/2018 08:34

Id be annoyed hed started smoking again and id think it was gross to share a cigarette as its a bit germy and there are so many illnesses going round

Where does it say he's a non smoker? Ive read back and can't see it.

It doesn’t, it’s posters answering the question by being a smart arse.

When I was young and single there were times when I found it very sexy sharing a cigarette or joint with a man I fancied. But I’ve shared plenty with people I have no attraction to whatsoever! So I don’t think that it has to mean anything.

FlashByReputation · 24/12/2018 08:42

Not weird, just a mate harping out in a time of need. In the last week I have shared with my best friend (female), mother in law and best friend (male) and a general buddy (female). This was for various reasons. I wouldn't share with a complete stranger but friend or colleague that I actually like? No problem.

Raven88 · 24/12/2018 08:45

No.

VietnameseCrispyFish · 24/12/2018 08:45

Nope, course not. He’s done it with female and male colleagues during the workday when they’re stressed. I’d be very concerned if my OH had any opinion at all on me having a drag of a colleagues cigarette.

AnchorDownDeepBreath · 24/12/2018 08:48

It’s flirtatious, isn’t it?

How?

I don't smoke and never have so maybe I'm missing the allure; but I really don't see how puffing from the same cigarette is at all sexy or flirtatious. It's not really on par with the Beauty and the Beast spaghetti....

I wouldn't be bothered by the act itself but like everything context is important.

RebelWitchFace · 24/12/2018 09:00

Was it a cigarette or a joint?
I've rarely seen people sharing a cigarette, but I've seen plenty of joints being passed around amongst various numbers of people.
Wouldn't bother me anyway in either case.
