Part of what makes this hard for me is the fact that I can't seem to get away from the smoking. I currently rent an old farm house with my dad. We have another roomate as well. They both smoke and know that I have been trying to quit, but it seems to me that they just don't care to respect the fact that I am doing this. They are a constant reminder of the cigarettes to me. My dad isn't so bad, he is gone most of the time working and he knows how hard it is so he tries to keep it away from me. The other roomate on the other hand is a jerk! He announces when he is stepping outside to go smoke and sometimes he even asks if I want to come outside with him!? If he wants to carry on a conversation that is fine, but he can finish the convo when he comes back inside, I am not about to sit there and watch him smoke and smell it and want one myself. He is just so inconsiderate. I have told him on numerous occasions that I am trying to avoid situations that I am around smokers. He listens or pretends to , but then nothing is different, he still does the same crap everytime! I am trying to move out and get my own place and turn over a new leaf in my life, but I'm having trouble finding places that are good to rent. I am trying to stay strong, but everywhere I turn I feel as if everyone is smoking but me. I know realistically this isn't true, but it sure feels like it lately.
