Rushman Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 So for the first time ever (before or after nuptials) the wife's cigar collection and I are under the same roof. She is out for coffee with the mother in law who is in town helping us get settled, and I am in my office rounding third on a nice bottle of wine. I haven't yet gotten up the courage to open anything up, but am salivating at the signed 2000 box of Don Alejandros, the 2002 box of Partagas Salamones and scratching my head over the 2002 box of partagas Toppers, as I have never seen any of those in person. Good news is she has about 50 unboxed "singles" hanging around that won't be missed too badly me thinks. Since I am on the first bottle, I think the best course of action is to smoke something of mine tonight, and assess the situation at a later date.
Jimm902 Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 whats mine is yours and vice versa...go for gold and see how that plays out...good luck...self medicating always helps...

MIKA27 Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Just think, if you ever break up, you get 50% of HER stash!

sharks Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Just ensure your stock is locked away securely first then go for your life
Borgy Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 You only live once the longer you leave them the and the longer your married the more trouble you'll be in?
wabashcr Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Your wife has an exquisite cigar collection that you're just now getting your hands on? Were you previously aware of this collection and its contents, and just not able to access it, or is this all new to you? This certainly seems to have the potential to bring about a less than amicable parting.
teamrandr Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Intriguing I wish my wife collected lol. Better than shoes and purses. 1
habanolover Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 You're such a lucky fella Rush, sounds like MY kinda WOMAN! Now, there is a particular school of thought that says, "better to ask forgiveness than permission" Of course, it's only a theory and I bare no personal liability should you decide to follow said theory 1

I've known about it since before we married but we left the states just before we married and are just now back. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
PapaDisco Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Y'know, it always helps to have a good Wingman to blame things on. Any one of us would volunteer to come to your house and crack into that stash, giving you the perfect alibi, "Honey I wouldn't have smoked your stogies but Papa Disco didn't know they were off limits." Wife, "Papa Disco? What kind of a name is that?!" Perfect! Problem solved!
CigarAsh Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Always better to ask forgiveness than permission. Then you never have to worry about the answer you don't want to hear.
JohnS Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 This makes me thankful now that my wife doesn't share my love of cigars!
FLB03TT Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Isn't Cali a community property state? This either means that's it's OK to smoke each others cigars or when the divorce decree is finalized you will split all your collective sticks 50/50. The first option is far more civil.
MIKA27 Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Just ensure your stock is locked away securely first then go for your life Or you can fake a break in and stash the stogies elsewhere
CanuckSARTech Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 I've generally learned to live with three adages.... 1. Happy wife equals happy life. (that said)... 2. 'Tis easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission. (when those two fail, I'm reminded by my lovely spouse of the third) 3. Though I carry a gun for work, she's a nurse, and knows how to kill me 100 ways in my sleep. 1
