After my parents quit smoking, they ended up with this, IDK, “born again nonsmoker” attitude where they were completely disgusted by the smell of cigarette smoke and couldn’t stand to be around it at all.
My parents quit smoking a few years ago, my mom had tried unsuccessfully to quit a few times, and what finally did it for her was getting a really bad cold during a really bad cold snap so she really didn’t want to go outside to smoke. Then since she quit I think my dad just kind of hopped on the bandwagon with her.
But I remember one time, a year or two later, being at a party at their house with some friends sitting outside, and my one friend who is a smoker lights up, and she told him to come sit next to her because she still really liked the smell.
So different strokes for different folks I suppose.

I have the same attitude about ads.

I like the smell of certain brands of cigarettes, up close
when they’re further than 3 feet away you lose the enjoyable delicate tobacco scent and can only smell the burnt ass shitty cig smell
Doesn’t smoking suppress your sense of smell? I wonder if they couldn’t smell how bad it is while they were still smoking.
Yep, but the key is that you become more sensitive to it after doing it and quitting than before you started.
