Hehe, it's true. I can honestly say that I haven't met a turkish man who doesn't snoke The whole attitude towards smoking is very strange, like older males ask the kids to bring cigarettes for them constantly while they tell them it's bad... and young people who refuse smoking when in company with older ones...and women pretending they think it's disgusting while puffing away in the kitchen.
Yes I realize that I'm very judgeful now but I've seen it all

Once I actidentally blew my sister in laws cover. I thought that at least her youngest brother knew she's smoking but apparently not. It's just so confusing to know who smokes in front of whom and so on. I don't get it. I'm so glad I don't do it.

If smoking like a machine is something of Turkish men, I'm afraid I'm one too....

one thnig that amazed me is that you can smoke almost anywhere.
i smoked in doctors surgey! cafes and resturants which was great for me as i smoke, my husband doesnt smoke , can you believe that ?? a Turk that doesnt smoke !!
i have to give up soon and so having a non smoker around can only help.
very interesting topic

Why are you so surprised? Naturally some of us are not that dumb.

Yes of course. My husband stopped once he joined the army - he had to keep his money to call me!

I did get my Turkish husband to quit so it can be done.



How did you manage to do that?
