    Since your dh has no problem telling him no,I would probably use him as an excuse.Maybe something like "sorry,dh only left me 5 cigs because he thinks I am smoking too much and we can't afford it".That way he doesn't think you are being mean and probably won't ask your dh for one because he already knows how he feels.

    I think I'd give him a dose of his medicine start asking him for some all the time and see how he likes it. Or just tell him you're on a really tight budget and you can't afford to give him any because you can't buy anymore and you have to make them last.

    I like gmyers way of thinking. When he comes over and asks for a cig, tell him you dont have any was gonna come and bum some from him.

    I hope you are able to get him to leave you alone without causing to much trouble

    You let your DD go places with a known druggie? I would be more worried about that than him bumming cigarettes.

    My neighbor is an alcoholic, I am ok with my kids playing in his yard with his daughter, but I would never let them go anywhere with him.

    This is what you say, "Times have gotten so tight that I was forced to quit. And, man, I can't have you coming over to ask for one since I am having a hard time quitting."
    We had us, we had him, now we have everything.

    I like that, fleabones3.
    Just remember to be polite. This guy is nuts if he is truly bipolar and could get mean.

    I feel so bad! I had a neighbor who would come bum from me all hours of the day and night, and then ask for more than one! I am a giving person, but don't take advantage of me. It was to the point were I would look psycho checking to see if she was outside before going out to smoke... It was like being a prisioner in my own home. Cigs are expensive!

    I smoke, but my hubby and i only have one car so during the day, i am stuck with what i have, if they are gone I have to wait for him to get home.

    The woman has probably bummed over 6 packs from me within 2-3 months, and only bought one to replace it. So I started bumming from her, just for the heck of it, even if I had my own, lol. A taste of their own medicine really works well. You can probably figure out when he gets his check, and I would be over at his house hounding him... it worked for me, and she does bum anymore!

    So in a way, its hard for me to say no, when he does take my daughter with them ya know?
    I wouldn't let him take my kids anywhere. He is a known drug addict with a mental disorder.

    About the smokes. You don't have to make up a story to get him to stop asking for cigarettes, just tell him no! Say "Sorry, you need to buy your own because I can't support your habit" plain and simple.
