Would you date a girl who smokes cigarettes?

[Guitar_Whizz]

As the title says. I'm just curious what your stance on dating a smoker is.

I don't like smoking so no I probably wouldn't. I would get annoyed with it in time.

 

[Romanemp22]

No, I'm an athlete and I can't stand smoke and also I don't like when I smell cigars on girl.

 

[Glassguy]

Smoking is disgusting and shows they don't care about their health, they have no self resistance to unhealthy things and most women that I know who smoke regularly also have some mental issues from their addictive personality

No thanks.

 

[BMX]

No. They are ONS material at best when they display those characteristics.

It'd be tough to either long term or short term date one. She would need to make sure her mouth doesn't taste like an ash tray.

 

[Hamurabimbi]

Yes. But not as an LTR.

 

[In2theGame]

Fvck... Yes. Date as in a relationship... No.

 

[Guitar_Whizz]

What if she was a smoker but respectful enough not to smoke around you? I don't have any major issues with girls who smoke - the only thing I'm not too keen on is kissing a girl who has just smoked a cigarette.

Although women aren't overly thrilled that I'm a smoker, they don't act nearly as prissy as some of the attitudes demonstrated above (and by supposed men, of all people).

I've said it before. Many men on here seem behave more like they belong on the loveshack forum.

Didnt you guys smoke/drink/take drugs at school? Did you rebel?

it was almost the defining feature of not being a pvssy at mine!

Apparently, the new 'rebel' does little to none of the above. Instead, they grow a beard and get a visible tattoo. And the extra wild and crazy types will spend hours on SoSuave trying to convince a bunch of male strangers about their 'successes' with women --- real tough guys for sure.

Does it make a guy less 'manly' to be against smoking and to be more of a clean living guy?

As mentioned in my above comment (the one that prompted you to respond). Most women I date are against smoking. Apparently, they see positive qualities that i possess that seem override their smoking objection.

In response to your question, I'd ask that you re-read my initial above posting. My criticisms weren't based on a personal preferred lifestyle (although I do mock those that follow fashion trends ie; beards, tattoos etc...) . Basically, I was criticizing a lot of the non-smoking males for getting into a tizzy over smokers. The non-smoking women that I date ... do not act nearly as prissy.

Throughout my life, I've had friends that ranged from straight edge to heroin users. I have no problem with either lifestyle. I judge people based on their character - not by their recreational choices.

If it's a one night stand with no kissing then hell yea. Otherwise, I wouldn't want to date her. I don't wanna be smelling smoke and ashes every time I go in for a kiss.

I’ve noticed that by and large, the only women who smoke are inherently selfish in nature. Ever notice the way smokers drive? Excruciatingly slow and entitled. While they’re relaxing with their smoke, they feel they own the road and think that everyone must conform to their warped sense of time.

Aside from that, it’s simply a smelly, disgusting habit that affects everyone around them. A smoker immediately disqualifies herself to me.

I'd weigh up everything and from my experience of dating smokers, they sometimes give up anyway. My now ex wife smoked through school and then gave up around 20, a year into us dating and hasn;t smoked since. I didn;t even pressure her to stop, she just made a decision one day to stop and hasn;t touched them since.

I smoke when drinking, but not a big issue for me, probably as not that interested in long term relationships anyway - plus a good chance they'd stop or at least cut back anyway.

More the overall 'package' I wouldn;'t just write someone off who was otherwise a good partner. Seems over the top to me, but each to their own. I'm more put off by someone who each junk most days.

If she was hot enough, I would.

Men are "prissy" because they have their own personal preferences and don't lose frame over it?

For many, smoking is a deal breaker. Me included. Putting up with something that you don't like is a beta trait. I really don't care if someone wants to smoke, its just not for me and not someone I would want to date. Preferences and our own standards that come from them are certainly not prissy.

If she smokes, she pokes.

former smoker here but I never can get my head around the holier than thou attitude of non smokers. Being a smoker suggests: risk taker, fun, daring, doesn’t GAF.
Non smoker suggests: boring, timid, scaredy cat!

obviously joking as I haven’t smoked for years, I’ll have one on occasion but I don’t really like them anymore.

but jeez, you wouldn’t date someone because they smoke? Just a bit weird and up ones own backside!
In school it was the much more fun kids who broke rules and smoked. It was the annoying do gooders who were “it smells and it’s bad for you”

things may have changed now, this was the 90s

Former smoker here as well. Didn’t you notice how bad smokers smell once you quit? Not the actual second hand smoke, but the bad breath and how your clothes smell from being in a smoky bar/car. That enough is a deal breaker.

I was at a party with friends over the weekend that I haven’t seen in years. A lot of them still smoke. I couldn’t help but notice the actual brown stains they had on their teeth. I know I smoked more than all of them in my partying days. Glad I was able to quit. Almost every one of them throughout the night commented how much they wish they could stop. I didn’t provoke those comments it was when they were running low on cigs and made the empty comment, “Ugh, I know I should quit.”
