Posted: 7/6/2008 7:35:09 AM | ^^^^^^^ DrWhoopie, I applaud you.........
Thank you for being so blunt in your post, and hammering home the nasty facts about smoking to all the smokers out there who continue to defend their disgusting habit. As a healthcare provider and a daughter who lost her mom at an early age from smoking related heart disease, I am forever on the anti-smoking bandwaggon..........
Kudos to you for having the willpower and determination to quit.
Welcome to the nicer, cleaner side of the fence!! | |

Posted: 7/6/2008 8:12:33 AM | We all have our preferences.I smoked for 20 years and quit in 2002.Dating a smoker is not my thing ,but I wouldn`t put them down either.I have no problem having dinner or a drink with a smoker and it doesn`t really bother me to smell the smoke.I am over wanting to smoke.It would never make me pick up smoking again.My son smokes and he has to smoke outside.
I`m sure you knew that the guy you met was a smoker so why even date him and then talk shit about him.BTW,not smoking doesn`t make you smarter. | |

Posted: 7/9/2008 12:58:41 PM | The problem is how many people know that they are going out with smokers to begin with. Many people in canada don't self identify themselves as being smoker and claim that they are non-smokers, but it's becoming so common nowadays in Toronto to hear these same women say that they only have a few smokes when they go out drinking.
I'm sorry, but this is like me saying that I only snort coke when Im out with the boys and am therefore not a drug user. People need to fess up, and that way both sides will be happy. | |

Posted: 7/11/2008 10:49:38 AM | I am a smoker. I have dated numerous nonsmokers. Not one of them didnt kiss me because I smoke. I work closely with other employees, and they are surprised when I say I'm going to take a smoke break. They had no idea I smoked, even though they were working side by side with me. I have quit smoking. Have smelled it on others, I didnt think it smelled bad, it just initiated that feeling of longing for a minute or two. It is not as bad as smelling strong perfume on someone, the kind that gets into your nostrils and irritates.
Sorry OP, but you do sound a bit judgemental of smokers now. Guess your better than us lowly smokers. Dont fall of that pedestal. Lots of exsmokers go back to smoking. I am one of them. Stress and tough times, your old friend is there, waiting for you. Dont get me wrong, I am cheering for anyone who has quit, for a day, a week, a month, a year. Or even if they are just trying to quit. I just have a problem with high horses. | |

Posted: 7/11/2008 12:37:03 PM | | I don't smoke but have been in love with a woman that started smoking again after having quit. I can tell you one thing I noticed, oral sex tasted different, not bad but different. I like giving oral too much to think it tasted bad. | |

Posted: 7/11/2008 12:54:00 PM | | I smoke , but that doesn't mean I would pass on dating someone that did not, because that person could be great & maybe the one you would be happy with!! It all comes down to preference. | |

Posted: 7/11/2008 2:43:42 PM | Not reading all of the posts, but wanted to say I have been on both sides of the playing field with this one....a smoker, and a non-smoker...and ex smokers are the WORSE anti-smokers! lol
I have seen profiles and met people who, it seemed we would mesh in an incredible way...and then, "NO SMOKERS" is seen/said and I move on. I would NEVER try to force my habit on someone who despises such...but I have to admit it is kind of sad to think that other than this habit, two people could otherwise be wonderfully matched!
Would I quit if I met someone who I really dug, and they hated it? I have done it before, with no regrets...just hated the look on his face every time I lit one up. However, it would not happen immediately, and it would have to be on MY terms, not his, that I quit.
But I can empathize with this, as I would not be flexible on my specific "dealbreakers" either...such as someone who smoked marijuana, did other social drugs, wanted children, etc.
However...there ARE courteous smokers!!!!!! I am one of them! I ask before lighting, if one will bother them...and I smoke outdoors when possible. I consistently chew gum to freshen my breath, spray a light body mist or perfume, and I smoke menthol which do not have as harsh of a scent or after smell. (I HATE non menthol smoke in my home...it clings like no other!) I do NOT taste like an ashtray when kissed! ;) lol | |

Posted: 7/11/2008 2:54:23 PM | | I dated a smoker when I was younger, first love and all, but HATED that he smoked. I made him brush his teeth and shower before even coming near me. Several years later (after dating non-smokers), I started dating someone who was "trying to quit" Well needless to say he really wasn't trying (at least not around me). I ended it. He was a great guy but just couldn't do it. I had a grandmother and mother both die from complications of emphysema. Never again will I date someone that smokes or is "trying to quit". | |

Posted: 7/11/2008 3:10:07 PM | | if he likes you a lot then he will do his upmost to try and stop smoking around you (which will be good for him) even though I am a smoker myself I dont like dating men who smoke I want to give the weed up and if i thought so much about them and it was either cigs or him I know which I would choose ( him of course) so give him an ultimatum | |
