So how common is it to pass on folks if they smoke?
and what is a social smoker.? does that mean when you have a drink in your hand your a chain smoker?
Sorry to all the folks out there that look delicious otherwise but we have chosen to pass up anyone who lists smoking of any kind by even one member.
I don't smoke cigs (on a regular basis but I have been know to take a drag of someone elses) but my other half does. I'm not thrilled with it, but it's not my call to make. Cuz trust me, when he does try to quit it's uh....not fun. Apparently I'm the most annoying person on earth to be around when you are trying to quit. (heck, sometimes I can be annoying just in general)

One thing I have noticed is that the cig smell is starting to permeate my clothes and hair and lately I'm really sensitive to the smell. Lately, after a social fau pax at a club, I've started insisting on him carrying tic tacs or breath mints with him. While I don't mind kissing him (actually I crave his kisses) others who unexpectedly decide to shove their tongue in his mouth might not appreciate the residue. Well, for the most part...there was this one hot woman who kept coming back for more. LOL.

I have another friend who is as of today on day 4 of trying to quit cold turkey. I have so much respect and admiration for her. I'm also glad she's a little over a hundred miles away. While I might be a tad annoying when you're quitting, people trying to quit scare the holy living crap outta me. I can only carry so much gum, suckers, and bail money on me to help you out. :D

It's a deal breaker for me. I don't mind if someone smokes one or two while out drinking but they have to chew gum after. I just can't stand the smell of them. I don't care if others do it, I just won't play with them.
Not a complete deal breaker, but the smell on clothes, hair, skin etc. is really disgusting.

Second hand smoke also KILLS people. And the health experts now say that even the residue on skin, clothes is carcinogenic.

Smoking is the single worst health habit anyone can do. Smoking disables, causes more disease and kills more than all drinking, murders, suicides and wars...combined. Look it up.

Please quit, don't start and encourage others to stop.

Peace to all!
So i have noticed that the smokers (such as myself) have not chimed in on this one so here goes and make sure i get blasted for being a smoker.
First off i want to say thank you for pointing out that my nasty habit is disgusting. Because i was unaware of that. I am truly sorry it disgusts you so much. Do you really think i enjoy it? I started smoking when i was 15 and it was "cool" to smoke and got hooked just like so many people do. You know what i hate it...I hate the smell, I hate the taste, I hate that i am physically and mentally addicted to anything but again thank you for telling me im disgusting and never will have a chance with any of you because my self esteem isn't bad enough about smoking.
So make sure you all go out and get sloppy drunk (because thats not at all unattractive)and have unprotected sex with homever because thats so much safer but look down on us smokers...
thanks Lucky
HI I mike dont like most smokers smell and it slow my sex drive down but not all smokers some I dont smell so bad but some smoke to much and stick ! thats all
Have fun all!!!!

to MORGANCOUPLE...Great post! We are both average smokers. I love how smoking is so villan-ized these days. I guess because it is the "popular" thing to hate at the moment. What we also find amusing, is how many people say "smoking is the worst thing ever", but are dumb-ass-level drunk at parties or the club...OR, slipping off to light-up a non-filtered "special" smoke in the back room. We also have alot of non-smokers bumming one off of us as soon as the glass of beer/wine arrives. Hey, be honest and secure in who you are and what you enjoy. If we ever get back to Utah and get to meet you guys, feel BOLD and FREE to bum one from us...Afterwards...lol. Smoke on, brothers, haha. (___(_______@~~~~~.A&E

Buddy, you've said what I wish I had said.
Two things you forgot to mention:
1. Those who have never smoked have ZERO concept of how hard it is to quit.
2. There is NOTHING as obnoxious as a self-rightous reformed smoker.

My Chantix prescription is on the way.
Wish me luck.

Total Deal Breaker! Yuckkkk
I've smoked and quit. It sucks, but its not impossible. It IS a disgusting habit... that's why I quit. I don't look down on people that smoke as that's your business not mine as long as you're not blowing smoke in my face. Nonetheless, I can't deal with the smell and I don't like the taste of kissing a smoker, so its a deal breaker for us. I also try to refrain from getting out of hand with drinking (although it happens on occasion) and I try not to involve myself or others in overly drunk sex. Drunk sex is one think, drunk retarded sex you don't remember and may or may not regret the next morning... not so great. :P
I just have to say...Neither Eve nor I have ever smoked DURING, that we can remember. And, as smokers, even we can relate to the leftover smell it generates. But I can say, it has been our experience that swinging partners that do smoke, have done so to relax and get comfortable..if that is their habit-of-choice. We had much rather someone relax before play with a cigarette than a Xanax. Also, we don't usually play with people that are "stupid" drunk, but there is also somewhat of a turn-off when somebody is huffing and puffing in your face with whiskey/beer breath. We can all find something to "yuck" about in other people. Eve and I are courteous smokers and respect everyone's preferences. We won't smoke in your house, car or faces...but don't treat us like we are radioactive either, just because we do nicotine instead of weed, benzodiazepines, opiates or alcohol.
P.S. We've also been choked-out by a guy's cologne-bath and the woman's matching soap, body spray, perfume-lotion scent "experience".....LOL. A&E

Exactly! And I do have to say that "how" you smoke has a lot to do with it...I have worked places for months and people are shocked to find out I smoke because I don't smell like it usually...I am obsessive about oral hygiene, I hate the smoke getting on me, I continually wash my clothes, hands, etc...so I think I can say I don't smell like an ashtray...am I proud of my nasty little habit...NO! And I hope to someday quit...but everyone has their "habits" and I am respectful to others with mine...if they don't smoke we don't smoke around them if it bothers them, don't smoke inside, etc...I can go a few hours without lighting up...hell I got more than 10 when I work...don't smoke once I'm showered and dressed and don't smoke when I'm there...out of respect for my clients and patients...

Everyone is entitled to their own preferences and opinions about their criteria of who they play with...that's the best part about this lifestyle...I just won't put someone down or make them feel disgusting for it...kisses (after I brush my teeth of course)...Naugh-Ty
I (MR) have smoked, started at 14 and quit just before my 21st birthday. I know it sucks quitting. One of the hardest things I've done. That said, just after I had quit, I loved the smell. After about a year the smell made me sick. 9 years later and I still don't like it, but its not as big a deal as it used to be.

As to the Original post topic, it is not a deal breaker, but that is also if the person doen't smell, taste like an ashtray. A few smokes while drinking or at a party is what I consider a social smoker, or smoking hookah at social events. I have kissed women that smoked and I would have never guessed. I have also been around a chain smoker where it made me sick to my stomach, literally. I feel its one of those things where "too each their own" applies. Smokers, light up. Non-smokers, deal with it however you need to. :)

I just have a quick question before I go outside and chain smoke a carton of cigarettes, This is actually for everyone who says that kissing a smoker is like kissing an ashtray......Has anyone ever ACTUALLY kissed an ashtray to give credence to this statement? I mean I have kissed ALOT of smokers and some you could smell/taste it some you could not but being that I have never actually kissed an ashtray I can't say that it tasted like that..........

You aren't a bunnY? could have fooled me. :D


As for the reason for this thread. No it is not a deal breaker for me in and of itself. However, if they are chain smoking or keep blowing their smoke in my face then I have an issue. I started smoking when I was 12, smoked about a pack a day until about 6 years ago, when I had a chest Xray taken and they found 3 little "nodules" in my lungs. No one can force anyone to quit. We all start for different reasons and many have tried to quit numerous times. People will quit when they are ready and not before.

well, i believe kissing an ashtray would be messier, perhaps burn if its been freshly used, and you'd get ashy dirt stuff in your mouth. So no.. not quite the same. :P I can smell/taste a different taste that to me personally isn't pleasant, but no... not the same as kissing an ashtray. :P
As someone that used to bus tables when there was still smoking sections in just about every restaurant, I may not have ever kissed an ashtray but I have emptied my share of them and sometimes if you get a full enough ashtray, the ash floats up and if you happen to breath in at the same moment.... well you get a mouth that tastes like that ashtray. not fun.

MUAH! (I just brushed!) ;)
mmmm. smokey nipples. :P

It used to bother my wife and I a lot. But reality police folks, there are a great number of swingers that smoke. Count yourself as the luck minority that do not smoke. That in mind, french kissing a freshly smoked mouth is not the best experience in the world, however, there are many other things to do then French Kiss. Usually her nipples don't taste like smoke ;), nor do the other interesting features of their body, like the neck, breasts, pussy, toes (for you freaks).

Look, there are smokers that need to clean up on the hygiene, but not all smokers turn us off. Some you can barely tell, while others you wonder if they use any type of filtration with their cigs.

One small word of advice to those we see at habits. If you do take a drag outside on the patio, make sure and chew some gum, hit the bathroom, etc, before sticking your tongue down anyones throat. I think the initial 5 to 10 minutes is the worst part. Some also are careful to not get it on their clothing etc, and that helps as well.

Anyway, like I said, we like smokers in some cases. Morgan and Naughty are pretty careful, in fact I was surprised to even see them smoking the first time. I also think we non-smokers should be a little more sensitive as well. Morgan is right, we have no idea what path they've trod, and what is possible for some to get over is not automatically the same for everyone else.


Only Morgan and Naughty are careful? OMG YOU THINK I AM SMELLY!!!!! :`o Hold on, I have a gallon of perfume here somewhere........ :D
This is the Mr. Deal Breaker, Doesn't matter to us if you have brushed or not. We have kissed one too many folks that smoked and we didn't know it until we kissed the ashtray..

We firmly believe in the right to let folks do as they wish. We just choose not to hang out with smokers. Sorry. plenty of folks on here that don't care or smoke for them to hang out with.
Yeah yeah....smoking is pretty schmasty...and kissing someone with just-polished-off-a-ciggy breath is like licking an ashtray....we all have our "standards".

However...since we're sharing candidly....

I personally draw the line at the nasty tuna-can-twat (nothing a good douche and bath scrunchy couldn't fix).

The rotten egg oh-so-stinky feet (another application for the scrunchy, and perhaps a dollop of soap on it).

B.O.-laden armpits (yet another application for a scrunchy). Seriously...is that vinegar you used as deodorant?

The occasional toilet paper cling-ons that have might surprise me (must not use Charmin; in actuality, toilet paper was not designed to be rubbed like you're attempting to start a fire. Pat that pussy ladies....)

In short...there are many ways to offend others with our personal habits and hygiene...and there are ways to graciously deal with it, both publicly and privately.

I find the soap-box approach to be most unflattering....
TG, you rock!

Damn J! I LOVERS YOU! hehehe You have such a way with words ;)
From one butt head to another.....can i bumb a smoke ?
I totally and completely beyond ANY doubt understand what you NON smokers are saying.
I'm a smoker (for now) and I agree that the smell sucks.

Butt, ya know what's a deal breaker for me?
Someone who smells like they've just spent the last 8 hours marinating in their Wal-Mart cologne.
Some people have asked us if we smoke after sex but we have never looked down to check..... But seriously, it may not be for some people. We personally don't like it because we both came from HEAVY smoker parents so we were lucky enough to not start. However, if its not for you, don't approach them, and the two of you can go your merry way without bashing each other. Live and let live. If you really want to do something, help them quit because I guarantee only a small handful of them like it. They probably all wish they could stop but with a substance that is equally as addicting as heroin it is no surprise they cant quit. Ease up people.J&J
And yet some people are still insisting on calling others gross and disgusting....It must be so hard going through life perfect huh? You know what I find gross and disgusting? People who think that their shit doesn't stink and get some kind of morbid pleasure trying to make others feel bad about themselves. But that is just my opinion and you know what they say about opinions! So now I am going to take my gross disgusting ass outside for a smoke then I am gonna lick an ashtray kiss my husband and go to bed!
I think after reading this, I better go shower, slap on some B.O. Juice, fix myself a tuna fish sandwich, grab a few shots on the way outside to have me a cigarette or 5.... WOW... :D
Wow. It just keeps on ticking like the energizer bunny. Anyone else wanna jump on the judgment train? Can someone print out the rules for me on their profile and we will decide not to read it?
Some people are hooked and some people just like to smoke. I have seen people lay them down and never seem to be bothered. While I have also seen some climb the walls and want to slit their wrists. The real question for me is why are we discussing this?
Let us just say that everyone has a preference and a turnoff. To some it is cigars and cigarettes and to some to perfumes, and to some others is tall or short of fat and then there is body order. I don
WOW!!! Never really new this was a big issue...I need a smoke now
I know smoking is a big deal for some people. I don't hide it and even actually mention it in my profile.
Ok so lets recap the requirements of the last few posts. Married, not cheating, willing to play in the chat room and send the occasional text, not too clingy, probably not a single male, good hygiene but not OCD, not too skinny not too fat, can smoke 420 but not tobacco. This is starting to to sound like the 72 levels of compatibility that the harmony sight uses.

Well we both smoke & enjoy it so if it bothers
anybody feel free to stay clear!
Damn..anybody wanna just screw here? LOL We don't even care if you smoke! As long as you..a...and..a..yeah..that too..and...Awww Shit..just take your clothes off....
HUGE TURN OFF

but....let's just say I won't be kissing you on the mouth. but not a complete deal breaker.

This sums it up pretty well... But substitute alcohol for smoking and the problem is the same. And yes, it does come out of all excretions..I am not interested in tasting your bad habits, your perfumes, or your bad hygiene. Even what you ate recently comes out...

tobacco (whether legal or not), alcohol, and body odors seem to be the worst kinds of offenders but we all have to take responsibility for how we present ourselves and choose/evaluate our play partners. We all have different tastes and interests... Viva la difference...
It shouldn't matter if the attraction and chemistry is there and the smoker(s) take the time to smell nice and chew gum or mints after a smoke. All of the non-smokers out there who judge who you will talk to or meet are missing out on some fantastic schtuping by being so prejudice is all I have to say!
It can be a deal breaker for us. Rachael has allergies to nicotine, so someone cannot light up right in front of her. We both also hate the feeling that we just kissed an ashtray. Gum and mints help, but because Rachael is so sensitive to it, the main issue becomes how many times a day does the person smoke.
I had a problem with Diet Coke and wanted to stop drinking all soda. So the "good sport" that I'm married to told me that if I had an urge to have one she would give me a blow job until the want would pass, day or night. I don't know if it would work for smoking but it certainly couldn't hurt. J
Although I can feel for those who do smoke, I lost my dad this year to small cell carcinoma, and he was a brilliant heart surgeon for more than 40 years...had quit smoking for 18 years...and it still killed him...one of his last quotes...if I had known it was going to kill me anyway...I would have never stopped smoking...there are 157 carcinogens added to cigarettes sprayed on after the plant is harvested...if you find another person you connect with...just go with it...life is too short...and I am a non smoker...

Ok I just have to put in my two cents here for just a second, one of the first few comments on the board here just kind of got to me. I know smoking is bad. But I dont know where the guy got his numbers about smoking kills more people than war? That is really way way off. Millions and millions of people have been killed in war alone. Not to mention all the other things he puts in there. If you keep up with the news you will see that for the first time heart failure caused by being overweight has passed smoking as leading cause of death. Now that being said I fully understand that smoking is bad, I just get a little excited about all the false numbers out there. You can slant your numbers any way you like to fit your point of view. Anyway just thought I would add to the fire a little. :)


75% of all stated statistics are inflated by 43% in order to get 62% of the populace to believe that at least 33 percent of what they're hearing and reading has a 21% chance of being, at a minimum, at least 10% correct.
In other words, if you can't find documented statistics to back up what you're saying - LIE!!!!!!!!!!!
64% of the people who read it won't know the difference.

Actually, the number one cause of death is that they stop breathing...

Amazing, isn't it?
So what about Hookah? What category does that fall into? We don't smoke but do enjoy Hookah

Now, "C" does like to suck on a fag from time to time, while I ("A") like to have a fatty. We have friends that will not smoke a cig but will lite up a Monte Cristo or Excalibur with me. Now, the ladies do like the flavored ones for example cherry, amaretto, or chocolate and will lite up with their men. Just think of a very beautiful blonde sitting on your lap while you have a fatty burning. It's heaven... Surf, Out...


I realize that at one point in time, "fag" was appropriate slang for a cigarette.

But somehow, the term "suck on a fag from time to time" conjures up visions in my mind of something OTHER than smoking a cigarette.

"Go away - BAD visions".
I haven't read this whole thread, so forgive me if this has already been posted...

But, give the e-cigs a try. You can get a nic fix and no smoke smell... cheaper in the long run, too.

Other people can't even tell, you won't smell like smoke, etc etc etc...

The guy who runs the business is very nice and has an emphasis on customer service. I think there is a holiday coupon code... email me if you can't find it anywhere online.

I watched my father suffer and die of lung cancer........... also watched a friend die of AIDS. Can't say that either was a pleasant experience. At least smoking is up front. The Mister and I worry a lot more about the trail of sex partners you have had than smoking.
Not a complete deal breaker for us, but a little respect for us please. We have been with smokers who were extremely respectful, they did not smoke at all while we were anywhere near them. Some we were not even able to tell they smoked and kissing was not a problem at all. However not everyone is as respectful, some said they would be, but then they smoked in front of us all the time, or they said they would do something to take care of the taste of it, but then they made no attempt at all.. they would go have their smoke, in front of us, and then want to go right back to playing, without as much as having a drink of water.. some gum or something would have been nice. Some were so bad, we had to run home and brush our teeth because we simply could not stand it. It is things like that that make people just say, screw it, just make a rule, no smokers period, just to not have to deal with it at all. But that is a shame that some lazy, disrespectful smokers can ruin it for other smokers who otherwise would have been fine... and that is what this all comes down to... RESPECT! If you are a smoker, fine, we are not, and that's fine, but we have a right to breathe clean air, so do not be standing in the patio doorway at a party puffing away, so that we cannot even get outside without walking though your smoke to do so, and letting half the smoke inside. By the way, you all should not be smoking in front of ANY doors.. geeze, do you need to stand RIGHT in front of the door at walmart and finish your smoking.. our children need to get into the store and do not need to breathe that crap.. have some RESPECT! Having a quick look at which way the wind is going and taking just a few steps off to the side would make such a big difference, and would be very appreciated. Since we have some good friends who smoke, but are very respectful of us, we have decided not to make it a deal breaker.. in and of itself, we make our position on the matter clear, as we do with our other rules as well, and if we feel as if our wishes in all matters of importance to us are being respected, then everyone is happy and we can have fun playing, but if we feel disrespected in ANY area, (not just smoking), then forget it. Why should we bother playing with you if you aren't going to respect us, playing is only fun when EVERYONE is completely comfortable.
Well I just read this thread and wow it looks like I started a sensitive topic. I guess there are several levels of smokers and their respect for non smokers. It appears like to most folks the smoking is a deal breaker. Still all these reply's and no one answered my question of what a social smoker is? I guess it is like the illusive answer to what Bi-comfy means??
Good luck to all the smokers who's New Year Resolution is to quit.
And JKN 204 Did the BJ offer let you kick the diet coke habit??

It all depends on where the stores or host put the ashtray hon. We smokers are not in control of that however there are two rather large entrances to Wal Mart the last time I checked. If a smoker is standing around the door, it's pretty easy to go around them or use the other door if a person is that concerned about the smoking. I do understand your feelings on the house parties and agree. Personally, we try to stand away from the doors and try to keep smoke from going into other people's face...just a courtesy.

A social smoker is someone who only smokes when they're out partying and usually drinking...in my experience this is usually people who used to smoke and have quit except for this time...that is the hardest time for most, when drinking...hope that helps...
People are sooooo judgemental this site is going down hill !!!!! What about people that have zits or facial hair !!!!! Or hey if you shop at wallmart then we cant hangout hahahaha Soooooooooo damn stupid ....... Just sayin

Thanx Smoker Badboy8p

So, it's common to use in our circle of friends, which we're glad your not one of them. I'm sorry if the term brings up bad visions of your time in the NAVY, that's not my problem. Now, get back to the topic or join me on the fourm page. Surf, Out ...


Didn't realize there was a joke in there somewhere - anywhere.
Went back and re-read it several times - still can't find the joke.

Shut up and keep it to myself???????????????????
Sorry, I thought all Swingular members were permitted to contribute to the discussions here on the Forums.
Didn't realize there was an administrative rule forbidding Navy veterans, or those NOT within YOUR circle of friends from commenting.
Duly noted.
Well, since it's in the top spot again I'll just say...I was so happy when this thread had died away!!

Thanx Smoker Badboy8p


It is comments like this that get threads off track far off track. If you think there is a comparison on the effects being a Walmart shopper has on sex to a smokers then there is not much I can do for you.
the original question was not about if, how, where, or whether folks chose to smoke or not it was about how many of you use this in making your free choice as to who you share your social or sexual activities with. CMON we all used, looks, age, fitness, body type, hair color, complexion, education, and a multitude of other factors in choosing our primary mate not much different now. Did I date girls that smoked 30 years ago? NO!!!
Skimming through some of these responses I'm noticing many of the smokers defend themselves by pointing out things that are worse. This has nothing to do with whether or not smoking is gross. I do want to clarify here. Smoking is gross and for us a deal breaker but that doesn't mean the smoker is gross. We kept a relationship vanilla because he smoked but when he quit we quite enjoyed them.
Just because unprotected sex and sloppy drunk is grosser doesn't make smoking any less gross. I can think of many things more disgusting than smoking. Who want's a little oral from someone with a big sloppy chew in their lip? Yum. Worse than smoking but smoking is still a deal breaker. In this Century is there anyone who really smokes because it's cool anymore? This isn't the eighties anymore. We understand that these days if you smoke it's probably because you got hooked and are having trouble quitting. To all you smokers out there, good luck. I can't even imagine how much strength of mind it must take to actually quit. To those who have quit. Way to go you are strong people.

It all depends on where the stores or host put the ashtray hon. We smokers are not in control of that however there are two rather large entrances to Wal Mart the last time I checked. If a smoker is standing around the door, it's pretty easy to go around them or use the other door if a person is that concerned about the smoking. I do understand your feelings on the house parties and agree. Personally, we try to stand away from the doors and try to keep smoke from going into other people's face...just a courtesy.


Well it is true there are 2 doors to walmart, but there aren't to places like restaurants, and I don't care to choke on smoke right before I go in to eat. Not everyone standing around in front of walmart is smoking, many are there waiting to get picked up and things like that, and normally on the way to the door to walmart, we are busy making sure our kid doesn't get run over by a car, so we don't see people smoking in front of the door until we walk through the smoke and then it is too late.. so all the non-smokers, children, infants, elderly people on oxygen, people with asthma, and recent smokers who are having a hard enough time trying to quit are all being subjected to inhaling smoke, just because they all wanted to walk though a door.. it's ridiculous, the stores put the ash trays there just to you can get rid of a cigarette before you enter the store, not so you can make it a smoking hangout, otherwise people would throw them on the ground, and we have noticed MANY times that the smoke we are walking though is not even because someone is smoking.. it's because someone just threw their cigarette or worse a huge disgusting cigar into the ashtray and did not think they needed to BOTHER putting the damn thing out. If you are smoking in a public place near where others must walk to gain entry, then you are the one creating the smoke, it is your responsibility to respect the other people and make sure the smoke is not offending them all.
A little general courtesy for others is all I ask, and it sounds as if you guys are considerate of others, and believe me it is very much appreciated, not everyone is that considerate. I do not think that most of the smokers are doing these things on purpose, but they are simply not even thinking of other people at all. The right of everyone to breathe clean air out weighs anyone's right to smoke, and responsible, respectful people know that and consider other people when they decide to smoke in public
"...we are busy making sure our kid doesn't get run over by a car, so we don't see people smoking in front of the door until we walk through the smoke and then it is too late.." - HORRORS!

That is one of the lamest excuses I've ever heard! Your life is incredibly spoiled if you have to resort to something like this to complain about! The Governor of Pennsylvania is right - we truly are becoming a nation of wusses. Do you have a petition going to build awnings in your community to protect you from the sun when you go outside? Pushing for another four airbags in your car? Have a personal attendant in your bathroom at all times (that's where most accidents happen)? Have you had the cops confiscate your neighbor's Weber grills yet?

It really is a shame that there are people unlike you cluttering up your life.

Good-fuckin'-grief!!!
I will agree that it is a gross habit. I am a smoker myself and cant stand it. I just recently got the electric cigerete and I tell you what it helps alot. Its not a way to quite smoking, just a safer alternative to smoking. There are no cancer causing agents in it and the best thing is there is no smell. I fell my energy come up and I can finally start breathing again. But it does take some time to get used to. I would highly recomend it to anysmoker out there and the great thing about it is you can smoke inside. So for all those people standing outside walmart smoking in front of the doors, Put the damn cig down and join me in smoking inside the store hahaha.
