Title: Bowing out!
Post by: bertf86 on 09/27/2016 12:28 PM
BOTL's/SOTL's,

I have been trying now to get in to cigars for around the past 12 months, but no matter how much i try I just cannot seem to get them to agree with me!

No matter the strength, I am finding it a struggle to sit & enjoy a cigar and i think it is something that is just not suited to me or agrees with me.

it is gutting as it was something i was really hoping to enjoy but these things happen i guess!

Who knows some time down the line i may pick it back up!

its been a pleasure being part of this site & joining in where I can. I will hopefully still be around and post every so often.

Thanks everyone,

Robert

Well sorry to see you go, maybe you were trying to hard, looking for something that only comes with backing down, finding your niche?

I'm bummed to see you go too. Have you tried infused cigars or a pipe? Maybe those would be more up your alley. Cigars definitely aren't for everyone though and you don't have to avoid the site by any means just because you're not smoking.

sad to see you go.  Have you tried pairing your sticks with Scotch? whiskey? beer? Coffee?  even different foods, chocolate, fruits, cookies, gummy candy, etc?   You able to go into details on what you're not enjoying?

Sorry to hear that Bert! Between pipes and oral health complications, I've been in a bit of the same boat myself - still like cigars, but my smoking time has grown more limited, and I have found that I LOVE pipes so much and usually prefer them.

Thanks very much for the messages everyone! I will still be around (feel this is more a community than a website) & as i said i hope that it will be something i pick back up in the future.

I have enjoyed cigars previously so i don't know if it is just a phase that I am going through at this time where they are just not agreeing with me (currently on a fitness regime to get healthier so it may be something as daft as that has knocked me off)

Cheers,

Bert
