Ok, that question wording didn't make much sense. Tell him to call or go to one of those quit smoking websites and get help there. And refuse to do things with him if he doesnt, lol. |

I'm having the same problem and have recently taken to opening all the windows and coughing and waving if I can smell anything. I expect he knows I am exaggerating a bit, as we have been together for years, but I do also tell him I don't want to be a passive smoker and that it is affecting my health. This limits the amount he smokes, which is a start.
Other than that, it really has to be his own decision to quit, as he is a nicotine addict, and regretably no-one can do it for him. |

You need to explain, in a loving and kind way, that you are concerned for his health. If you do not like the smell of smoking, you should be honnest about that also. If you harp on him, you will push him away. Do not "bug" him about it. If you have any relationship with Christ, you should pray for him.
If you can not tolerate that behavior, then you need to go on and find another relationship with someone who has the same likes and dislikes that you have. You can not force someone to change. They have to choose to do it on their own. |

i would try a subtle gesture...like buying a box of the special quitting gum and patches and just talking to him.
explain to him that he's putting his health at risk, and it's important to you that he quit...you want him to be around for a good long time and you want him to be healthy (the whole, if you're healthy, i'm happy thing).
good luck! hope this helped :} |

I have been trying to get my boyfriend to stop smoking for over 8 months now. it's ridiculous. He won't listen to me, I tried telling him how bad it was for him, and me. Still smokes.
I'm going to sit down with him and tell him how much I hate it, and how I want him to be healthy for our kids.
how can someone who smokes for 4 years run & play with there kids without coughing and hacking crap up, it's disgusting. |

You don't. Get a new boyfriend if it bothers you. Your choice. |

If I was smoking and had a girlfriend (instead of a wife) I'm sure that Rev. Phil's suggestion would work. I can't imagine thinking about a smoke during that. |

If this problem had a solution there would be far fewer cancers, COPD's, heart attacks, strokes, etc.... Perhaps you must ask yourself if this is the right person for you. Smoking is hurting the smoker and all around him/her. I find that health seeking people do everything they can NOT to harm themselves or others. |

that made no sense |
|
I tell it like it is
|
Smoking is a very powerful addiction, moreso than cocaine and heroin. You can`t make him stop, he has to want to. You can , after he has a smoke go to kiss him then back away and tell him that his breath stinks, and that you don`t want the taste of his cigarettes in your mouth. |

you need to check your ????????s, about smoking or any bad habit you can not make them do a thing, they need to do it on their own. |

Generally, you cant without assuming yourself to be in control of him.
You were with him as a smoker, or were you with him on the premise that he would give up ? Otherwise as Nigel .. you cant force anyone to do anything they don't want to, only help and give advice if they want to. |

explain to him that its not something you're comfortable being around and that its bad for his health.
good luck though, i dont know many people who would stop smoking for a girlfriend or boyfriend. |

You can't. It has to be his decision to make. |

You cannot make someone quit smoking, unfortunately. They have to want to quit, or it will never work. I speak as a former smoker for 15 years. Unless he really wants to quit, there is nothing that you can do except encourage him to do it. Forcing him will not work, and it will ultimately hurt your relationship.
I hope he does quit though because it's an expensive habit, and it's going to get worse. |

No one can stop him, only him by will power and determination and it fight for the rest of his life.
The girlfriend only be support. |

Why do women always try to control the men in their lives? If somone told me to do that she would be placed on a ducking stool. |

You can't force someone to stop smoking, only help them to stop smoking. Willpower is required... |

I'm a smoker myself. You cannot MAKE somebody stop on a dime. They have to WANT to stop by themselves. |
