if someone smoked would that put you off going out with them?? (94)
somechick: Thank you.So sorry for your loss too. I just wanted clear up my first answer and better explain why I replied like I did.
thank you so much, i wouldnt wish what you had to deal with upon anyone, your completely right not to want to go through it again.
BlueJai: Cigarettes, no. Anything but that, yes.
GalwayGirl89: anything but cigarettes? so a smack head, a stoner, an alcoholic, but not a smoker?????
Galway, you totally misunderstood her answer. Quite the opposite...she would date someone who smoked cigarettes, but not those other things. I got it.
I couldn't date someone who smoked cigarettes now. I just quit...going on my 4th day without them, and feeling wonderful. I watched my husband die of laryngeal cancer because he was a heavy smoker and drinker, and watched his dad die a slow death from emphysema complicated by pneumonia, and he was on full oxygen and still struggling for every breath every day that I knew him. I really don't want to go through that again, nor go through it first-hand. It took me long enough, but I'm on my way to a much healthier life, and going to school to be a Doctor of Naturopathy, choosing to specialize in cancer (it is now my mortal enemy).
My life's work will be helping others to learn to lead a healthier life, so my partner will have to be on board with that...and he can't be if he smokes. Even when I was still smoking, I knew this was my ultimate goal and that I would make it happen, so if a man I dated then was a smoker, he had to be one who seriously wanted to quit too.

This is a difficult question for me too...Umm I would have to say no but if he were to smoke outside since my daughter has respitory affects when someone smokes in the house....Maybe? I do not wanna make that decision for them ?
I smoke but, there is such a thing as clean smokers, and i would expect the same. Most people don't know that i smoke, and i certainly would never want to kiss someone after i have had a cigarette.

BRAVO....
NO. No offense but if I didn't feel like I was suffocating when I was around cigarette smoke(the very scent of it on clothes makes me sick) then I guess I wouldn't have a problem.
redrain: i find it hard to date a girl that smokes i cant stand it..
I never smoked myself, (at least not the brown stuff).
But it doesn't bother me as long as she doesn't smoke while we're in bed, or eating. It's her funeral.
I just wanted to add to my previous post.
If a person who smokes is dating a person that does not smoke, the polite thing to do, is not smoke around them. Just coutesy.

You would certainly have every right in that case to make the decision for them.
I would go out with them. If it became a serious relationship, then I would hope that person would maybe consider quiting... if not, then there's the possibility it wouldn't last. It would be too hard to deal with the health problems later on... nobody wants to lose their beloved one. 
I have recently quit smoking , but would probably date one who does 
Might depend if she wears socks with flip flops

Not me. 
I wouldn't mind finding someone who would be willing to stop smoking with me, we could give each other support.

I am highly allergic to cigarette smoke; can't be around it at all -- not at home, in a car, or even at social gatherings. So yes, the smoking issue is a deal breaker.

I wouldn't date a smoker. I did once, for about 6 months. He seldom smoked around me. I didn't break up with him because of the smoking, but I also would never have gotten really serious about him unless he quit. But I wasn't that serious, so it wasn't a big issue. However, that was years ago. I was a former smoker then. In the intervening years, some years after that relationship, I took up smoking again for a couple of years. I hate being a smoker. I realize that being around people who smoke can lead to my smoking, so I do not spend time with smokers anymore. I would not date a man who smoked, whether he smoked around me or not. Whether he was polite and went outside to smoke or whatever, just wouldn't do it. Especially at our age, it is so destructive and leads to other problems, including ED, which can be a result of general poor health. And it stinks.
I won't go out with a smoker. I hate the smell and don't really want to kiss someone who tastes of cigarettes and making everyone smell of it (no matter how much chemicals are sprayed or windows opened I can still notice it). I can't relate to someone who has such a disregard for their health. I know people are addicted, but no one forced them to start in the first place.
I used to smoke a looong time ago. I know it can be hard to quit. I would be happy to help a lady try to stop, but if she didnt want to stop, that would be her perogative. But it wouldnt stop me from loving her.
Ah holy jesus.
I smoke and it's a petty thing. Doesn't bother me.
Take me bad habits and all.

i wouldn't mind if she smoked cause i smoke, but when i was off the smokes i ran into a fine las one night and it really felt like i was licking an ashtray it was horrible, didn't stop me tho
............
YES
I enjoy kissing too much. Nothing worse than kissing someone who smells like an asktray.
Even if a person hasn't got a cigarette in their hand, you can tell they are a smoker from the smell of their skin and clothes.
Skin and fabric absorb smoke very easily and it takes a long time to disappear.

Well I always carry gum or those lil breath freshening sheet things that disolve.
I am not proud of the fact that I smoke but I do, so que sera sera!
Once dated a smoker...if he hung his coat next to mine, it was absorbed in my clothes...holding hands..god..what a stinking mess. He was told to smoke outside which is did but one day I came home and he had smoked in the bathroom and then denied it.
He went to chew after that.......and that...CS people is GROSS!
