I did tell my girl when we started dating years ago that if she was holding me back Id cut her loose, and that I expected the same from her. Its been a good level of mutual understanding

I told my girl at the very start what my expectations are

and it works out fine because we have a mutual understanding of htis

and are emotionally independent

so it works out fine

clingy shit always falls apart

^ how relationships should be

being a hypochondriac sucks

Gf agreed to stop drinking for good.

I told her she's done.

And anyone that offers her alcohol is no longer her friend.

Great man

But it's hard to put someone on lock down when you're not there.

Her and I used to get absolutely trashed together.

And the end result was never good.

I stopped drinking because I knew what it was doing to me.

(imagine that, a marine quitting alcohol)

But she doesn't have the kind of self control and self discipline I have.

I'm hoping she means it this time.

She's looking at some real hefty paperwork right now over what happened yesterday. If that doesn't get it into her head, I don't know what will.

Brothers are you here

I am struggling to stop smoking

I'm sitting in front of a fucking cigarette box and fighting the urge to light a cigarette

Don't do it.

I mean, I have tried to quit and have failed.

And I am coming to terms with that in my own way

But if you're making an effort?

If you're serious about it, which im thinking you are, just toss the shit out of sight

HALT THY DEVIL'S FINGERS - GO FORTH OUTSIDE AND BREATHE

Breathe the most addictive drug known to man, O2

Or go for a walk

get a coffee or a snack or sumn - distract yoself

I've heard gum, nit even nicotine gum, works. Everytime you crave a ciggy, eat some sticky rubber

@VI/K/INGinnaTRENCH/K/OAT sounds like a good idea, thank you brothers
