Why do smokers feel like it is OK to throw butts out the window? If I ever end up choking a random person, read the article and you'll find it was because I saw them throw a cigarette out the window of their car. I don't wanna jack the thread, but DAMN. It drives me nuts. Co-sign. I always think: You know how nasty cigarettes are? They don't even want the butts in their cars. Ok. I'm done. I love everybody.  | |

Me too, and that's why I never posted my rant before. I like plenty of people that smoke, I just dislike the side effects of that activity. Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it. |

my point in saying all this is, if the person you're seeing is this considerate and he's not all stank and you're dumping him simply because you KNOW he's a smoker, then yes, i think you're evil.
but if you're tired of doing the humpty hump with someone who smells like marge simpson's twin sisters, then i think you're totally within your right to move on before things get any more involved. i'm sure there are gross lapses in logic in this response. ignore them. I would like to point out, I do all of those things also.  Brush the teeth, carry mints, avoid smoking on dates. All of it.
But, being that I'm an addict, I'm gonna be like Carrie in Sex and the City running out of a restaurant after an 8 hour date dying for a cigarette if I can't smoke around someone at all EVER. And I guess I'm at an age where, if someone KNOWS things can't be serious or long term with me, there's not a lot of point... I know I couldn't get along with, say, a hardcore Christian longterm. It's just not gonna work. So I wouldn't bother dating them, or would likely stop dating them as soon as I found out. 
I don't think anyone can get along with them, they are mental
 It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

violator said: I have felt so superficial and self-righteous choosing not to date smokers. But it's just something I cannot get past. And I realized it's more than just smelling smoke. It's the whole asthetic. It's such an unattractive look to me. And I catch hell over it, as about 75% of my friends are smokers. But I can't help it.
I tried once, ONCE, dating a girl who smoked. And as it goes, I think she was relatively considerate about it. She almost never smoked around me. I rarely ever smelled any cigarette smoke on her. But ultimately, it seemed to be such a strain on her. And I started feeling like a shit putting her through all of it (even though, technically, I never asked her to make any considerations for me). Then there were the very rare occasions when I did get the smells from her clothing or in her kiss and it just turned me off. Completely. This is exactly how I feel. Only I go a little further. I used to feel guilty and try to spare feelings, but after watching my 80 lb step-aunt die from lung cancer in front of my face while begging for a cigarette, I didn't feel bad anymore. It's not just the smell, all the money spent that could be a car payment, or the butts in the beer bottle (nastyx100000), or the times we were at the Field Museum for family night, and every 20 minutes, he had to leave and go outside, while we sat on a bench "waiting"...it's the fact that I take care of myself, and take care of my body. Because I want to be around for the ones I love. I care that if I smoke, I may die, and leave the ones I love sad, angry, and without my amazing wisdom and advice they are so used to. 
I can't be with a smoker...period. Sorry, I'm mean. I think it's selfish and ignorant. One of my sons smokes, and I am on his ass all the time, and will be until he gets so sick of me he'd rather quit than keep hearing my mouth. He's on the "Patch" now.
