Hi Claire,I have always ben attracted to women who smoked, and my girlfriend who smokes apreciated this, but she was rather annoyed that I was a non-smoker when we met and thought it was unfair. She never forced me, but I did understand her point, and eventually she did convince me to try it and enjoyed coaching me through the whole process. I ended up enjoying it, and eventually became as addicted as she was then and still is now. Now it is something that we both enjoy togethr, and we both feel it brought us closer together. No regrets here..
