How Can I Get My Girlfriend To Quit Smoking?

My girlfriend smokes. I want her to quit. She doesn’t do it around me but I can always smell it and I just despise how it can effect her health. I have tried to use guilt, saying how its unhealthy to everyone but she just gets pissed when anyone tries to lecture her. she knows how terrible it is and she kind of wants to quit. besides her smoking she is the most incredible girl ever.

Try the Money argument:
Make no threats about it. If you dislike it that much, break up with her. This is choice that is very personal, but when made, requires the support of the public around her. It’s a tough choice, but with the cost of cigarettes seeming to go up just as quick as the stock market falls, now is a better time than any to stop.
That is something you can use to convince her to stop. The money factor is huge. For a girl, image how many extra pairs of shoes you may possibly buy with your smoke money? If you smoke a pack a day, that’s about $7 per day, times 30. $210/month times 12 = 2520. For many public, that’s a percentage of their income that they may possibly be by somewhere else- like putting food on the table, gas in their cars, or contributing towards healthcare.

Try the Health argument:
My father was a forty year smoker and was literally killing himslef adn we argued a lot about his smoking! Then i chose to go on the website and get pictures of tongue, lung, and throat cancer and i wrapeed them up with a starting kit to help to quit smoking. IT took him 6 months but he is smoke-free for the past 3 years. Recently he ongoing loosing his breath adn they found out his lung capacity is very low. He told me if i haven’t shown him the pictures of cancer and the pictures of my children and told him if wanted to miss out of all that is dear and loving to him to keep smoking! I also refused for them to be at his house if he continues to smoke! I guess maybe if she has someoneclose to her it may help her!

    Tell her how much of a turn off it is for you…. it takes an average of 7 attempts to successfully quit smoking…. keep on her….but be patient…. Excellent luck!!!!

  2. Sliteofh says:

    she will not quit unless the consequences of continuing to smoke are worse than smoking.
    Most smokers won’t quit even though they know it gives you cancer; so unless you threaten to leave her she probably won’t quit and don’t be surprised if her addiction tells her to dump you.

    look up statisicts about lung cancer, and show her how common it is. Refrain from kissing her as much tell her that her breathe stinks like cigarrettes, threaten to break up with her cause you reckon smoking is yucky and it smells up everything.

    Either get over it, or get a new girlfriend. Expecting a name to change for you, to your preferences, is the preface to disappointment and failure.

  9. Sybar says:

  10. Dering says:

    It has to be her choice to want to quit. If she wants to quit and wants you to help that is one thing. If she doesn’t you are just vacant to have to let it go.

  11. Izzy says:

    pay the clerk that sells her the cigs not to give them to her or something
    and whenever u find a pack around the house get rid of it and if she questions say it must be a ghost http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

  12. Goldi Lox says:

    You can’t. Stop trying to control her and let her be herself. When she decides she wants to quit she’ll do it. I’m sure you do enough things that she doesn’t like.

  13. Ash says:

    she wont quit till she wants to.
    dont kiss her, dont hug her, keep far enough away that you dont smell the smoke. she’ll question whats up, just say oh not anything, just breathing… over HERE. everywhere it doesnt smell.

    yeah lecturing just pisses smokers off a lot. If she really wants to quit she will find a way, you can’t make a name do something they don’t want to do

  15. ZeRoFaTa says:

    Tough. She’s addicted, and addiction isn’t simple to get rid of. Try getting her to a quit smoking center everywhere professionals can help break off the terrible habit.

  16. Denny says:

    If she doesn’t quit, break up with her. F*&k that sh*t. It’s yucky, huh? Never ever would I date a girl that smokes. Nasty as hell.

  17. omgnowai says:

    Stick your dick in her mouth.
    Kind of impracticable to smoke with that lynching in there.
    Plus you will be having fun while helping her quit.
