Getting your girl to quit smoking
I was just about to start this thread in the Advice board, but then lo and behold, it became the Sexuality board. I trust all will forgive me for starting an advice thread here. At least it's related to Health.
Anyway, I'm a nonsmoker, and would never ever start smoking <i>ever</i>. I am, however, starting to date a girl who smokes. I usually don't date smokers, but sometimes you gotta make exceptions (if you saw her, you'd understand why I'm making an exception).
Naturally, I want to try and get her to quit. I already have a tactic of my own picked out that seems to be working (she at least doesn't smoke around me anymore), but just for curiosity's sake, I'd like to see what kinds of ideas you folks can come up with.
None of that "just tell her how you feel and mushy mushy mushy and feelings and emotions and in touch with your feminine side blah blah blah" crap, though. I'm talking subtlety here. Going right up to a smoker and telling them to quit usually just offends them anyway.
