because it's not good for you at all and now i know first hand what the effects are and how devasting it is to a family...my mother was a smoker...quit 2 months before she died at age 64!!!!! She ultimately died because during surgery of removing her instenstines(they were infected)...she had so much smoke in her lungs, she coud not survive during the surgery and came out a vegetable. they put her in a medically induced coma... A day later, she had a major stroke and died 10 hours later. It was very sudden and it was so devasting..it is beyond words!!!! Her 2 grandkids...7 year old boy and 8 year old girl had to go to counseling cuz of her death. she helped me raise my 8 yr old daughter til she was 5 years old...so they were extremly close....she also had a 2 year old granddaughter that still asks for her to this day and my mother died jan 29, 2006..O.h. and i was due to give birth to a baby boy on her "viewing and funeral" but was induced before the funeral and had him on feb 3, 2006 so my son will never know his grandmother...and she was an awesome one so he is really missing out!!!! That's why you must quit...it not only affects you, it affects everybody around you in your family!!!!

because no one really likes a smoker unless you are a smoker. I have friends that are not smokers & they are always telling me I should quit or asking me when are you gonna quit!

I don' t know but it annoys me a heck of a lot! My guess is because the media is so crazy with smoke bans, etc that the cause-heads, people that have empty lives and attach themselves to anything just to feel important or part of a group, feel the need to preach it. I smoke, I'd like to quit but that's between me and my nicotine.

Because of those TRUTH commercials. Plus people always hear that you will die or get cancer from smokin so they feel you the must SAVE THE WORLD and you with their comments. If I were you, I would offer them a cigarette and see how they like it.

I understand your frustration. However most people think that with all the harmful evidence that's come in about the effects of smoking ....most intelligent people wouldn't want to knowingly harm themselves. I do understand the power of addiction if that's what it is so I do have emphathy.

I think it's because they just don't want to put up with your secondhand smoke.....I can't stand that either. My doctor is nicer about it that some people! I'll quit when I want, and that isn't going to be any time soon.....
