I quit over 10 years ago and I don't think I could go back even if I wanted to. It was very true for me that the smell of the smoke got to be very repugnant after I quit. I can't stand to be around people that smoke just because the smell is awful.
So, good for you.

I have a similar thing with coffee - I had to give up caffeine about 12 years ago and I find the smell of coffee really horrible these days.
The smell of tea, on the other hand, is still very enticing.

Hmm... I have the same aversion. I find that the smell of coffee is also bad to me. Of course, I don't drink the stuff anyway. That and that awful Dihydrogen Monoxide. Deadly stuff.

There are people who actually drink that?
Don't they have any idea what fish do in it?

I quit over 20 years ago. It's stupid to smoke. I'll smoke the occasional cigar still, but cigarettes are just nasty. They stain your teeth and stink up everything you own. Nobody with a clean mouth wants to kiss a smoker either. So kudos for quitting.

The worst is that you don't notice anymore how you stink. Some lady really was irritated when she took the seat behind me in a bus and I got up and sat someplace else.

Good for you! Sounds like you've got your mind made up, which is the key thing in my opinion. I will have been cigarette free 20 years on November 23rd, though I still think about it way more than I should at this point.

Have Nagy stop drinking and you can pay for the whole thing together.

I quit over a decade ago but I think it may have been too late, I still have the lung capacity of a gnat.

"Will power" has never been the problem for me, it's "won't power" that I've always been short of!
