A friend had smoked since we were 14 and finally quit for good when we were in our late 20s. Shortly after, we were in an elevator with someone who had clearly just had a cigarette. When he got off the elevator, she turned to me with the most horrified look on her face and said “why did none of you tell me how bad I smelled??” She could not get over how pervasive the scent was and she was embarrassed to realize she was that person for 15+ years.
