It is your right to smoke or not. The problem is that it is also my right to not breathe in second hand smoke. There's lots of places you can still smoke, such as in your home and in your car, and almost anywhere outside.
Another problem is the inconsiderate nature of many people who do smoke outside of places. I can't tell you how many times someone has puffed out a huge puff of smoke right as I walk by to go into the mall or a restaurant.
We cover our mouths to sneeze, right? Turn away to cough? Why is it so hard for smokers to not blow their smoke towards the path where people are walking? It's not like there are other ways to go into a restaurant - there's the front door and that's it. I don't mind people smoking outside the restaurant...but I don't get why there's always that person sitting two feet from the door, blowing their smoke at everyone walking by!
It's that person sitting by the door that ruins it for all smokers, even the considerate ones.
Good luck with the quitting! I can't even imagine how hard it must be after so long. Congratulations on making it three months!
