View Full Version : how can i get my friend to stop smoking?
she like smokes half a cigerette once a day....
i keep telling her i WANT her to stop and that even my grandma and died almost died from it, well.. technicaly my dad did die from it. back to the point i told her from a note in socials to QUITE NOW!. and she said she wasent addicted. i told her "you cant TELL when your addicted or not! you ARE if you smoke everyday!" and she kept saying "its only half!" and i said "add up all those halfs and you might aswell be smoking 5 a day!"
i dont want her to die. i quite smoking... i got my other friend kayleigh into it too and she smokes A LOT. i told her to quite to but they both wont listen to me!. im going to show kayshia a smokers lungs..maybe that will creep her out into quiting....DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO SCARE A SMOKER INTO NOT SMOKING?

every pack of cigs she gets, you take all the cigs from her pack and stick them up either your nose or your bung hole and put them neatly back in her pack. That'll surely get her to think again before she goes to light another up

It's very hard to get people to stop. They have to want to do it.

she doesnt get packs. she only like asks for a cig off a friend.. like 3 puffs and gives it back.

ok then. Before her friend hands it to her, stick it up your bung. That'll even help her friend to quit as well.

I'm giving up this weekend, both things
I have plenty of good reasons to right now
Don't want to be smoking in the new house
Don't want to be smoking in the new car (would hate to scorch that leather ;))
Can't afford to smoke while paying for both those
So I may go a bit wacky koo koo (more so) for a while, but sometimes things have to get worse before they get better

I got two things to say: Half a dorry a day is hardly a recipe for lung cancer. And mind your own business. If she wants to take three drags on a mates smoke, its her choice. Thats the great thing about being human, we can make choices about what we do whether its bad for us or not.

Thats fine, you can let her know how you feel, but it is her choice in the end and, as her best friend, you respect that instead of making her do something that she clearly doesn't want to do.

i would listen to her..
the only reason for her not wanting me to do something is because she knows it can easily reasult to death.
its the same for me to her. but this time she compeltey agrees on "she isnt addicted." "I"LL STOP WHEN IM ADDICTED. i promise" she areadly is addicted but she cant see it

hey--not new here...just "went away" for awhile ;) .Uh, taking 3 drags per day is NOT addiction. When she is Jonesin' so bad that she is out in the fuckin' front yard looking for a snipe, then you know she has a problem.
That's why...I say...FUCK IT!!

nobody smokes because they think it's healthy. everyone who smokes knows it's bad for them. So educating them on the ills of smoking really doesn't deter anyone from having a ciggy. A person has to want to stop smoking on thier own.
however... I think we are talking about a young girl here and probably just about the only thing that might deter her is if she likes a guy who is a non smoker and that guy expresses that he doesn't go out with girls who smoke. if you can arrange that, I'm sure she'll quit in a heartbeat.

i got my mom to stop smoking. she ate a lot of peppermints for a long time. but finally that stopped and she didn't smoke anymore.
in your friend's case, this calls for an intervention!
and make it harsh! (but, uh, not TOO harsh...)
punch her in the nose everytime she smokes

You know what's ironic?? Someone smokes and falls asleep dropping their cigarette on the floor and burning their house down or apartment building and the whole event makes them so upset they light up another one...
messed up right??
just burn your friend with the damn thing so she'll know how much it hurts you! :D

i kept reminding her about the smoking ad with this old lady who had a whole in her throat from smoking so much, and at the time kayshia couldnt speak right.. at all and that was when she started to smoke more. but she still does it even though she thinks the smoking ads are sick and sad... they wont work

hmmm.. so i guess... i should buy a lot... A LOT of packs of gum and peppermint candys and whenever she goes to smoke i take the cig and hand her the candy/gum instead... haha yeah that might work.
She's what we call a skav.
haha. i should be like "hey skav =)" everytime i see her now..
one of my friends used to say "Ten minutes" after i every cigarette i smoked, meaning that i'd just shortened my life that much.
^ show her that site.
you mean after every drag you took. your friend would say "Ten minutes" ...ten minutes you took from your life?
i looked at it, it made me start tearing up =(. poor people.
