I gave up smoking 10 years ago. I am mild asthma sufferer and it is really bad when around smokers it sets it off. Sorry peeps who smoke but that is the truth. I believe smoking caused me to have asthma & when I did smoke my asthma was very bad but since I've given up huge improvement to my health & well being.
10 years ago I did and only because I was really in love with him I honestly consider smoking a nasty habit sorry for the smokers nothing personal but it is what I think
Not me. I'm a non-smoker, and I can't stand cigarette smoke. Another reason is that I don't want to sit there and watch a partner die from lung cancer (because of preventable smoking.)

Its everyones personal choice weather they smoke or not. I choose not to and I choose not to date anyone that smokes either. Do I want to be sat in a bar or resteraunt on my own while they go outside for a cig ... erm, no. Do I want to kiss them after having a cig ... erm no. Its not shallow of me ... but it is a choice I make and theres no compromising on it.
To smoke or not is a free choice. I'll never or have never criticized people for smoking, but don't want to live with a smoker. That's my choice! I want to live longer!!!

I tend to decide for myself which stigmas matter to me rather than allowing society to make that decision for me. The smell isn't great but people didn't seem to mind that much in decades gone by, and it seems smokers are a convenient group to look down upon - smokers are the new Black, you might say.
Personally, i'm not going to turn down the Woman of my dreams because she has a few cigs in a day. I'm not that self-interested, and even if I was i'm aware that just having a driving license is at least 100 times more likely to shorten my life than passive smoking, just to be rational about it.
