i know for me i had zero intention of quitting smoking (cigarettes) and tried an ecig for kicks- i did kick tobacco but it wasn't my intention. had i put the pressure on myself, and reminded myself of all my past "failures" of trying to quit, i'd probably have had a much harder time.
That makes a lot of sense. I think he feels that since I have to he does too. He is really a very supportive man no matter what I try to accomplish.

And yeah, if I thought about all the times i tried and didn't make it, I would fail this time for sure.
