Good luck, stay off the Oreos.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

I remember quitting smoking. I miss my American Spirts
You'll find a new quirk to pass the time with soon enough. Smokes were like mini-vacations for me, smoke breaks of paradise if you will. Getting something to sub-in, is easy makes all the difference.

A lot of women gain weight when they stop smoking, so maybe you can do some kind of work out during those moments where you really want a ciggy, and kind of eliminate the possibility, while you combat the urge? A lot of women I know tried to quit, then used that reason as why they gave up trying to quit, and won't even try to quit in the future.
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Congratulations. I'm two weeks in on a cold turkey diet. It gets better Penkitten. In the first week, I was like a crack head. Couldn't concentrate, very jittery, headaches, very short temper, physical sickness/illness, etc, ad nauseum. I am a full two weeks in at this point, and there is something that I just realized at this moment:
I haven't thought about a cig all day!
It will get better. You just have to REALLY WANT to quit. Keep at it. The hardest part for me was not smoking in my car and after meals. I have been exercising a bunch (cardio) and using the sauna at the gym to sweat all the crap out of my body.
Caught a powder day two days ago on the slopes and I noticed how much easier I was breathing throughout the day. Granted, it's the near the end of the season and I'm in good ski shape, but I could tell my lungs were healing. It was all the incentive I needed to continue to stay healthy. Keep it up!

Thing is, we weren't born to be putting tobacco in our bodies it's a learned trait that we got from someone we hung out with either friends or even generational in a family which can be the worst kind and harder to quit.
I broke ties with a friend that had generationall habits and addictions. His dad smoked and drank and his dad's dad smoked and drank. No amount of treatment would make him quit he would go for awhile not drinking or smoking then one day out of the blue he would be drunk off his ass and be smoking like no tomorrow. In his mind whats wrong with it if his dad and grand dad did it so can he but he fails to realize if the people around him are annoyed it's time to do something about it. For there is no hidden motives behind anyone trying to inspire someone to quit bad habits regardless of what they are especially ones that could endanger ones health.
Just some added thoughts

day two.. did not kill anyone yet
every time i wanted to smoke - i tried to do other things like sweep the office, or eat candy or mop the floor or eat candy or count in my head. a few times i would say to a coworker that i didn't even want to quit.
however, i am still smoke FREE!! yay!!

Hi Penkitten,
Well done you seem to be doing well. I'm quitting smoking as well so I know how you feel. It's been 5 days and haven't had a craving until I read this thread! Seems to have passed. As long as 1) you really want to quit for yourself (as someone mentioned above) and 2) you realise that it will be really difficult at times you have a good basis. Just out of interest, what function do you think smoking performs/performed in your life?
Keep it up.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

where can i score some sort of crystal meth or crack?
maybe i will just go on to bed?

Two months smoke free for me! I am still on generic nicorette, but slowing down. Sometimes I'll take a drag, just to see, and it tastes like shyt, unlike other times I've quit.
The REAL reason I was able to quit however, is that I've miraculously had a few months of NO FEMALE RELATED DRAMA!
I don't know what I'm prouder of!
Oh, yeah, download a hypnosis cd, and play it when you go to bed every night for a while.

well , i am still smoking but have cut down to less than a pack a day. i stopped taking that chantix medicine the other day, because i just could not deal with the side effects of the moodiness that it brought.

Then you were never really ready to quit in the first place. You did not mentally prepare yourself for the physical and psychological pain of withdrawal. Don't worry though. Each attempt to quit will give you new insights into addiction, and you can use that new knowledge for the next time you quit. Smokers will tell you that they have quit hundreds of times.penkitten said:
I am on going on week 4 of the cold turkey approach. I've tried the patch, medications, gum, blah blah blah. Bottom line was that I just had to WANT to quit for good. You have to be prepared to say goodbye to that old friend, the cigarette. They're fvcking junk!
I can't remember who said it on here (I think it was VU, but I will paraphrase): Anything you cannot quit is your MASTER. And you are it's SLAVE.
