When I inquired she said, "I told you I'm allergic to the smoke. That's what happens".

Now with all that said, she is very supportive. We have ground rules. No smoking in the hosue, no smoking on days we are going out in the evening, I don't expect a kiss after we have been smoking, and I shower before going to bed. I abide by these rules she totally supports the hobby often buying me smokes, encouraging me going to the local shop and even suggests on nice days that I should smoke a cigar on the porch cause "its nice out" just incase I haven't already thought of it.

I'm one of the lucky ones. My wife will probably never smoke or enjoy the hobby with me but she is super supportive what more can I ask for!

Wow, now that's a supportive wife!
