ok so I have been dating this guy for a while now and he is amazing, smart, and he always treats me good but as much as I love and care about him... There is one thing I don't like or think I can handle ..
He smokes regularly.. Ciggarettes and the bad other stuff and I don't know if I have the right to ask him to stop he says he won't ever do it around me but still it's awful for him and I find it disgusting and I don't know how to ask him to stop without sounding controling or getting into an argument do I even have a right to ask please I need advice
of course you have the right, your the one that will have to kiss an ashtray! Talk to him and ask him, see what he says, tell him you want to have a future and if he smokes that time could be cut short and you don't want that to happen, also ask him why he started, ask what you can do to help, maybe buy him some nicorette patches or gum and give them to him and say that's what you really what, you want him to be healthy and alive in 50yrs :D hope I helped you
my grandpa died because he smoked, and it destroyed my grandma. Tell him how you feel, and how it's good for him too. Quitting will be hard, but be there for him. Hope this helps. :]
If he doesn't decide to quit at least tell him not to do around you. You can try asking him to quit but he seems pretty determined that he's gonna do what he wants.
there is no way you can get him to stop with out some arguing. but if you straight up tell him that you fear for his health it might hit him. but you also have to remember that smoking is a difficult addiction to cure. so it might take some time, but if you are planing on stating with him just be patient.
Coming from the girlfriend of a smoker, if he's addicted, he will choose cigarettes over you and probably won't quit. He sees benefits to cigarettes. I'm not going to start a drug debate, but do some research on the benefits of marijuana. A lot of what you've heard about it isn't the truth; even now there are lies, half truths and rigged studies on it.
well it's better if you tell him or askk him to stop because is bothering you. that you don't feel comfortable about him doing that. so just give it a try:)
You have the right to ask him but you have no right to stop him . Talk to him , advise him about the negative side of smoking , leave to him the rest .
Ok if you do love and care about him.. Tell him how you feel about the whole situation and that if he doesn't stop smoking he might lose you and possibly his life.
I say that it's worth the risk. If you do care about him you'll talk to him and get him to at least try and quit.
Whoa, I'm a smoker myself.. My wife tells me to discontinue the cigg, but is hard! Especially when you under a lot of stress or drinkn out. Start by throwing three cigg away every time he buys a pack. Let a week pass and then try four cigg (work your way up) the bst way w/o him catching you is every time he's buyn a fresh pack! Lol keep tooth-picks around that's another way of quitting..
I think that you need to sit him down and explain that you know that it's a personal choice of his to smoke but that it concerns you. Tell him you have a hard time accepting that your own boyfriend could possibly die from the most painful cancer out there. Describe how much it hurts you.
Then tell him that he doesn't have to quit if he doesn't want to, but it would make you sleep easier at night if he did.
It makes him feel guilty but at the same time it's really open for him. You aren't forcing him here so if you ever leave his life this new personal decision will follow him.
