[QUOTE="AHF, post: 532683, member: 11180"] vligrl, I'll go against the flow of these responses and say go with your instinct. Give him a chance to prove himself, but do it in an adults-expectations way. That is, he refills the tank; he takes the car for oil changes; he chips in a portion of his earnings toward insurance; he brings the car home after work and does not expect that it is "his" to use for evening outings. If he lives up to these expectations, great--and your hunch will probably be right, that he's not smoking. If he fails to live up to them, then I don't care whether he's smoking or not, he's not being respectful and will have to learn how to handle his work schedule himself. [/QUOTE]
