What do u guys/girls think of smoking?

[emersedsin]

What do u girls think of smoking and of guys who smoke?

And Do you think that its really possible for a heavy smoker to quit?

Gimme ur opinion guys..

[Queenie]

Well For me I Hate The smoking it stinks and makes me choke sometimes .
But for some people i guess they may of Smoked for A reason like being overly stressed / was forced by Friends .or just tryin . There could be many Reasons why they started so i can't exactly hate the ppl who smoke but just don't like when they smoke infront of me .

And I think it's possible , Just slowly get off thesmoke slowly and use other things as a distraction but a positive Attitude is needed for it if u jsut say and and don't do it then its not possible . and Support of Friends and Family is a good thing :]

[daniel2]

YUCK AND YUCK. Thats all I have to say.

[elusivefreedom]

i personally hate being around smokers.. i hate the fact that my clothes and hair REEK of smoke whenever i'm around smoke-friendly restaurants. plus.. it SUX kissing a person who's just smoked.

and like duh... all smokers should know that smoking predisposes a person to cancer and numerous heart diseases...

not to mention the fact that hanging around smokers causes mucus build up.. like when you're sick and there's phlegm in your throat.... except you're NOT sick. more like side effects of way to much smoke inhalation.

so yeah, like ImI said: YUCK & YUCK

quitting depends on how desperately you want to do it. it's possible. i know chain smokers who've quit cold turkey but that's cos they got heart attack & further smoking'd just aggravate things & decrease their life span.... some are willing to do that to keep their girl.

the question would be.. what motivates you to quit??

[chimpzy]

I was a smoker once. Started at 11, quit at 23.

I had many reasons to quit, like the health issues and the pricetag. But the main one was waking up in the E.R. one day and realizing that my subtance abuse was ruining my life. And I have abused them ... name a drug, I've tried it. So I got help, went cold turkey and got rid of all my subtance-related vices, including smoking.

My idea is that smoking is wrong for many reasons, but I won't judge anyone for doing it. I feel I am not in a position to do so. If you want to smoke, then by all means do so, but try not to bother anyone too much with it.
I don't think anybody particularly enjoys sitting in a room where you can hardly breathe because its choked with smoke.

[Silmeria]

well i smoke and i am 20 almost 21...and i hate normal ciggars i like ciggars who leave a nice scent in the air could be cherry or strawberry or mint, reason why is started smoking? helps me relax/things when i am alone..suddendly you see me taking 1-2 ciggars a day 4-5 when super stressed with a college project.....but always alone..also for all who hate to kiss a person who just smoked try a flavor ciggar it leaves the taste on your lips and your breath doesnt get to be that strong.
no i wont say smoke is not bad...i actually hate ciggar smoke(normal one) and it becomes an addiction...but you know some of us dont smoke just crap, i actually think people arround me when smoking specially, when you like to be clean, also i hate to smoke in closed places smell e[Only registered and activated users can see links]

also there is girls who like to smoke....and girls as wel as males(like me) who smoke socially thats why flavor ciggars are.

just some tips for the guys and girls.
the odor of the smoke is the besty thing to get rid of garlic flavor or any strong food flavor also any perfume(i dont do this but it works)...if you are cheating your current partner smoke some ciggars on a closed room after beign with your other half the perfume or any odor will go away sometimes the ciggar smike is so strong that other people dont notice anything else..also you notice your own smoke smell(is that strong).

[daniel2]

.but you know some of us dont smoke just crap.

Wake up and smell the fresh air. All smokes/smoking is CRAP! :monk:
There is no healthier smoke, its still all smoke!

[emersedsin]

What if the person got into it because he was really stressed out and got hooked before he knew it? A positive attitude is obviously lacking in someone who obviously starts smoking in the first plce because of stress.
And if his family didnt know he smokes?(its possible he managed to hide it)
And what if his friends cant help because they smoke too?
(The common reply to this i think is "Then they're not really his friends cos they encourage him.if not by words then by example.Peer pressure."...or smth like that. But lets say that his friends are having the same problem as him?

Oh and do nicotine gums actually work? cos some ppl say they dont do shit.)

So if any of your friends were in this awkward positions,(based from the responses i'd guess u'd run away first lol), how would you girls/guys try to help him/her.

Then If this is the Cause its basically up to the person himself if he wants to admit he has a problem. Friends and family can't do anything unless the person is willing to do something aobut it . but im just saying like if the person did admit it family and friends are good support .

[krnxknight]

I don't smoke and prefer that people around me don't smoke but if they're going to i definitely prefer the flavored ones that sil mentioned.

[Silmeria]

arent you beign narrow minded and chosing the most convinient words? like i said, i never said it was healthier even in the smoke worlds there is crappy ciggars that addict you even faster and kill you even faster, think outside the box even if smoking is crap i like it just like some people like alchool. and its the same thing XD

[vengeance]

I really dun mind ppl or friends smoking......as long as they puff the way that the wind blows or away from you...but if i was to date someone, i rather prefer she dun smoke.

[kiziroglu]

smoking...
dude! stab yourself in the chest... It'll be less painful!!

[Silmeria]

actually another recomendation for smokers XD
if you havent had breakfeast dont work out and smoke at the same time it feels like shit.

[Slayden]

actually another recomendation for smokers XD

That's because the nicotine is constraining the size of the blood vessels, depriving your muscles of the oxygen they so very need. Under normal circumstances, this is why smoking relaxes you, but when you work out it feels horrible. You are essentially being micro-asphyxiated.

As for myself, I love the smell and taste of tobacco smoke, but I don't like the health repercussions. I've smoked maybe 4 or 5 cigarettes over the course of a month in my life and I liked it, but I stay away because I want to protect my lungs, even moreso now my voice, and keep the circulation in my body going smooth. Another thing is smoking causes massive body odor that is more difficult to clean. Another reason I don't want to smoke.

Smoking also ages the body much faster due to the constraining of oxygen in the body, and I'd rather keep my youth and good-looks as long as I can. :D This is also a reason I don't want girls to smoke either.

[daniel2]

Smoking kills people, what a great way to shorten your life without letting anyone know (you pathetic suicidal bastard), so go on grab a cigarette and watch your days alive fade faster then ever!

(Because your too much of a coward to end your life by your own means in the first place).

[Slayden]

^That was rude and unnecessary ImI. Just because he wants to smoke doesn't mean he is suicidal and has a death wish. He just likes the taste, smell, and feel of burning tobacco.

[daniel2]

I was not speaking toward him at all or I would have quoted him and/or left an arrow "^"
I was being factious on the whole "why do you smoke" question.

Stop judging me so quickly. If you suddenly have a problem PM me for gods sake.
I'm not a malicious person and I no longer troll, which I have never done here.

lol chill imi... you did come across as rude in the previous post, but if u dont mean offence then its all good aint it?


I asked this qn in the first place was to find out people's opinions abt smoking as well as how to quit out of curiosity. U mentioned "Stop judging me so quickly"...likewise, shouldnt you be more open minded abt smokers if not smoking and stop judging them so quickly?

[Sora]

I've never smoked before, and dislike it when people are around me (smoking.)

[Carnage]

Never touched a cigarette in my life, even though all my friends and my mom smokes and I HATE IT!!!
I choke in it, my throat hurts of it, and my clothes smell like shit all day...


+It's unhealthy like hell....

[g700l]

its a total turnoff for me
i dont like smokers and i dont like smoking myself
never tried it never will

any smokers can quit if they really wanted to
its just that some of them choose not to and pick the hard way

Yes yes but I've tried smoking, a few times I tried to get addicted to it like other people but it just made me feel like I was dying, (which was the point back then) but anyway I don't know how people can do it knowing its shortening their life. Unless they don't want to live for as long as they could.. and they don't want to be healthy.

I just see it as a bad habit. I don't hate the smokers I have the smoke itself. Though you cant have one without the other.

[reminder]

Pretty much the same with my family. Also, smoking + girl = instant turnoff for me. I have NEVER dated a smoker. I can't even imagine kissing her, because at the very least I'd have to pinch my nose to do it... I imagine a girl would feel the same if I said "Kiss me, baby, I didn't wash my teeth for a whole month".

The worst thing is that in my country, almost every girl smokes.

[kite98765]

I say all you're doing is burning your money away. As for the heavy smoker quiting, get on the person every day and shove some nicotine gum in their mouth and make them chew it. I recommend not from experience, but research.

[pickles88]

One way to get hooked on smoking is to smoke over and over again. It just builds up as you smoke and that feeling after you puff the cigarettes makes you feel relaxed and high (also dizzy) And let say for example you get stressed out then you can pull one out and smoke em to get your self relaxed...

I tried smoking but decided not to do it because its bad for your health... Sometimes even make you regret because it leaves you breathless and weak especially when your running.

[cinconneal]

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now i feel very secure~~~~
Sort of~~~~~~~~~~~
XD XD XD XD XD

And yes, I completely agree with C and reminder. Smoking has a million drawbacks and we ALL know what they are....no need to repeat them here.
I believe smoking is REALLY ugly....not attractive AT ALL!! I have never smoked before and probably will never 'try' one either^^.

[EchelonV]

I don't smoke but it doesn't bother me that much, probably because I've been around it all my life. I think I'd rather date someone who didn't, but if they did I wouldn't just turn my back on them or anything.

[wbz115]

pipe tobacco and weed smells good

[daniel2]

We have a 16 years 'young' stoner in our midst.. and just when I thought I outran them....

[EchelonV]

"It's the cool thing!"

Bleh. :P

[daniel2]

No way? LMFAO

[Shinbou]

I don't smoke, tried it once but hooked off. My boyfriend does smoke, he began when he was 9 and now hes almost 20. I'm not really bothered by it im always around people who smoked. All my friends were addicted and i always stood next to them outside. And most of my brothers and mother smokes. And i dont taste much with kissing altought it was with my ex boyfriend -.-. But they dont have to blow it in my face and when i'm sick (wich im most of the times) i try to avoid smoke. Other then that i would never do it again cause its gross and a waste of money. About the cancer thingy, these days u can get cancer from everything so...

[lan60000]

i dont like the smell of smoke, so i think less of those who smoke and i find girls less attractive cuz....... they smell :D

[Christie]

It's disgusting and it definitely has a lot of weight on whether or not I'll date someone.

[doesthislookinfected]

i smoke.. so hwatever lol
yeah i might get a cancer.. and like 50+ different disease. .or proly die from something else.. but.. whatever
people here are so girly ... lmao. with this-- haha sorry but its true

[tmmyjames]

Naw, I dont have the money to waste on it and dont have the time to learn how. Plus no time to get lung cancer now.

[beyazm]

i dont like smoke and smell of smoke and
i think smoking is wasting of healty and money

[doesthislookinfected]

all the good things in life is bad for your health

[badabang]

it's unhealthy, it costs much soo...... smoking sux

[beauty_girl28]

i dont like people who smoke but i dont really have anything against it as long as the people around me dont over smoke like smoking a whole pack everyday that is just over doing it

[qbcomplex]

I thinki t is gross. But most smokers I clam people so it suck because they are most of the time people who truly are less cranky and judge mental.

[slimcrow]

I am a smoker. Smoked most of my life.Smokeing right now.MY choice.
Most people dont like it put you down because you do.
Its extreamly unhealthy but so is a lot of thing and we still do them anyway.
Hard to quit for some easy for others (the gum and patches work for most people)
IT dose make you and your clothing smell bad.

[FadedAce]

Some of what I'm about to add to this discussion might have already been said, but I'd rather add my own opinion straight out than leaving any parts of it out because others might have said similar things already. Earlier in my life I smoked off on and, mostly a way of dealing with stress, never about looking cool or anything. It's relaxing, there's no question about that, sure there are other ways of relaxing and after a while I sought out others. I didn't use gums, patches or anything like that, I went cold turkey. (I don't suggest it for most people, it's hell.) Gums and patches do seem to help some people, but then on the other hand they don't others.

I recently started smoking again, not as regularly as I used to, but whenever I get the feeling that I can either smoke or hurt someone, I smoke. My life and my work are very stressful, especially recently, and smoking is an outlet. Yes, I know it's harmful, yes I know it can lead to cancer. Most people who smoke for a long period of time know that, too, so roting off about it doesn't help things. Now on the other hand do I think smoking is "attractive"? Well, no, it certainly doesn't make someone anymore attractive to me that they smoke, especially if they do so regularly.

I smoke rarely and take measures to cover the smell and my breath, I always have gum, breathmints and so on. I wouldn't write someone off because of smoking though, that would be hypocritical of me, though I'd prefer it if they took the small efforts you can for the smells that I tend to. Honestly though if I was dating someone who smoked that would probably work better for me, might even stop smoking altogether myself. Since being around the smoke and the smell was often enough for me before I started smoking back again to get me to calm down a bit. (It's difficult to explain, except to other people who've quit.)

So yeah, that's my fifteen cents. (Inflation, what can I say?)

[Caliberz]

For a fact... I dun smoke. It's jus everyone's different views about it (This discussion was pretty long and I didn't want to read everything) Anyways, I think it's people's will that plays a role in quiting smoking. That's just my opinion!

[srage]

Don't like it at all. I can not understand why people smoke when they know it will definitely kill them in the end.

[mysteryman]

smoking :imd: yuk that will happen to you.

[rollerblade]

smoke kills people arround the world so the best thing that u can do if u don't want to die is stop smoking or simply don't smoke

[iLLFuckOverU]

also i hate to smoke in closed places smell e[Only registered and activated users can see links]
