k so my boyfriend is young and healthy except for one thing... he smokes. I know there are worse things out there then smoking but i want him to live long and healthy and plus it stinks really bad and i can hardly kiss him anymore because of the taste! so i have been trying to help him quite, he tells me he wants to, but i always catch him smoking. We have gotten in to many fights over this so i told him "look im not going to mother you anymore, you need to quite because you want to quite, not because i want you to quite. you know how i feel so if you think its right to keep smoking then i guess whatever!" He wants to quite i know that but im sick of mothering him, should i let it go or keep trying to get him to stop. and again i can't take the smell much more!!!

As a smoker, I can tell you he cannot quit until he truly wants to do so...period. I will also tell you that is I had someone consistently on me to quit, it would help. There are tons of methods out there, as I'm sure you've researched, including hypnosis, which I may give a try in the next several months when I finally get serious about becoming a non-smoker. I also saw a product on a site that I order sinus medicine from (sinus buster . com) however, I have no knowledge if it is any good or not. Stay on him.

It's good that you're telling him how you feel about it.
And it's good he's trying. But he is not quiting...

I know how you feel. My boyfriend smoked a cigarette once and said he does it once in a blue moon. But one can lead to two then three then a whole pack. I told him I wanted to be with someone who won't die on me. After a long talk, he told me he wouldn't smoke ever again.

I don't think he's really trying. Everytime he smokes, he is hurting you. You can tell him that too. Maybe you should try an ultimatum. If he doesn't quit, you're out. Because like you said, you want him to live a long and healthy life. And maybe you'll be part of that life as well.

True he will not quit unless he truly wants to quit. However, it does suck to kiss someone who smokes, it makes their teeth turn yellow, the clothes stink. So his smoking is infringing on YOUR happiness. Give him an ultamatum or start smoking yourself.

Seriously, smoking is going to kill him AND YOU eventually. So if he really cares about you, he'll start making the steps to quit, even if takes some time.
