Well, I'm 30 and have smoked off and on since I was about 13 (I used to sneak my dads cigs). I'm at a point where my husband has quit (3 yrs now) and I'm still smoking but not regularly. I smoke when I'm out with friends having a drink or two, which is about 1-3 times a month (I guess now that I think about it, I don't smoke alone - never really have...don't like it). I also never really smoked in the house or in the car, even as a smoker (when I was smoking a pack a day) I realized it makes everything stink. I do not smoke around my daughter, and wont! Its a habit I don't want her to pick up! Maybe one day I'll quit for good?!?!?
That having been said, I suggest you deal with his non-smoking ways if he's willing to deal with you smoking. If you really care about him this should be a non-issue. Don't be so selfish, find another smoking buddy. Take your car places if you can't smoke in his. Honestly, if you leave him over this you need to quit smoking because nothing should have this much of a hold on you and your life.
What ever you do, good luck!

I smoke. I cannot believe that you are 31 and are trying to get your boyfriend to start smoking. That is the most ridiculously dumb thing I have ever heard. I have heard of non-smokers trying to get their smoking partners to quit but NEVER THE OTHER WAY!
You are insane and you need some serious psychological help if you are being serious.
And honestly I do not believe you are 31...Sound like you're about 11.

You want him to start smoking? To join the minority who pay ridiculous taxes to stink? Keep pushing him, and you won't have a boyfriend. Thank your lucky stars he is willing to accept your smoking. I never let anybody, including my mother, smoke in my car.
He is going to need his health to come visit you when you go in the hospital for a lung transplant. A family friend went through that this year, 5 years she waited for the transplant, on 24 hour a day oxygen. Another friend didn't make it, and just passed away a couple of weeks ago, only 58 years old, sick with lung disease for 9 years.

I pretty sure that whatever i wish to say have been said by others...
Oh you have mention that you age 31 right?
it sound like you are 13, I'm not saying that all the 13 years old girl are silly and selfish, in fact i come across some of the girls who are age younger than YOU, have a mature thinking and so considerate...apparently you have much growing up work to do.
Thank goodness, I'm not your boyfriend who have such a ignorance, selfish, inconsiderate girlfriend like you...

Smoking is very bad for a person's health. You are free to choose what you want to do, but I can't imagine why you would want a person that you love and care about to start smoking. It makes me think that you don't care about your boyfriend much.

You're 31 and behaving this way?
As a fellow smoker, I have to admit, I'm appalled. If you love him, respect him as he is, and hopefully you'll get the same.
If you don't like riding smoke-free in his car, which I have to admit is hard for me to do as well, then take yours!
Whatever you do, quit acting like your in junior high, just cause, "all the other kids are doing it" doesn't mean he has to, peer pressure went out of style a long, long time ago.

Strange question. I'm a smoker, but I would never encourage someone else to take up the habit. If you must smoke in the car, drive your car instead of his when the two of you go out. (And then crack a window for him.)

Isn't this a selfish reason? If you loved him you would know better. My mother is dying of lung cancer because she used to smoke. Now she is living the rest of her days in misery regretting her silly decision and she won't even get to know my daughter (I am 3 moths pregnant). This is hurting our family really bad. Seeing our family getting destroyed in such a meaningless way; it could have definitely been avoided. I am sorry but if I were him I would know better and leave you because I would feel a totally unloved.

Definitely leave him! I smoked for 31 years and I would never ask a non-smoking boyfriend to light up for me - that's just so wrong in so many ways. So yeah... leave him. He doesn't owe you squat... and certainly you're not worth sacrificing his long term health for.

i have smoked for 18 years. i want to stop, but why on earth would you do that, making someone chose to smoke or not to smoke. just so you will stay with him. that is the most ignorant thing i have heard. personally, i think, it's his car not yours, they are his lungs not yours, and why would he want to kiss an ash tray.
