How can you make someone you love stop smoking? It is a big pet peeve of mine!? -
you can-tit seems if you try they will hide it or smoke more out of spite
they have to quit when they want to period smokers are stubborn
they look ridiculous like a 6,7 year old with a pacifierMy friend has the same problem. He told her straight up he wouldn-t quit even for her (plus he is very lazy) so they-re breaking up after 8 years. I think it is very nasty. I wouldn-t even date someone that smoked.
Take him to the doctor - get him to prescribe Welbutrin. It has helped some people I know to quit. He-s not only killing himself but you too.
Don-t marry him...what else will he lie about if he won-t take ownership of his own smoking. He won-t stick up for anything including you - your feelings.I find that the person has to stop on his/her own, but you have the right to set some rules, like that person can-t smoke in your home, you don-t want to kiss their smokey breath until they-ve brushed and mouthwashed, insisting on the nonsmoking section in restaurants, stuff like that, but your call.its not easy have tried everything nothing seems to work.well tell him if he doesnt stop then you will startthis should really work!
tell him it is you or cigarettes
if he luvs you that much he will quit, or at least try his hardest!
good luck!tell them u-ll leave and u mean it or else... If he loves you he-ll try to quit... give him the factsThis method works for me and is the only money back guaranteed.
I quite smoking 2 years ago
Get the Facts
Easyway, founded by Allen Carr in 1983, has the highest independently verified 12-month success rate (75.8% for a smoker completing the program) of any quit smoking technique and a 90% satisfaction rating.
Compare Easyway to other methods and see for yourself why Easyway is called “The Cadillac of quit smoking methods.”
The Allen Carr Method
HOW THE METHOD WORKS
Using psychotherapy, the method works in the opposite way to the “willpower” method. It does not concentrate on the reasons the smoker should not smoke : the money, the slavery, the health risks and the stigma. Smokers know all that already. Instead it focuses on why smokers continue to smoke in spite of the obvious disadvantages.
It is fear that keeps smokers hooked!
Fear the smoker will have to give up their pleasure or crutch. Fear the smoker will be unable to enjoy life or handle stress. Fear the smoker will have to go through an awful trauma to get free. Fear the smoker will never get completely free from the craving.
The Method removes these fears
Smokers quit with the Allen Carr Method as happy non-smokers, not feeling deprived but with a huge sense of relief and elation that they have finally achieved what they always wanted….
TO BE FREE!
What about the terrible withdrawal pangs from nicotine?
The physical withdrawal from nicotine is so slight that most smokers don’t realise that they are addicts. What smokers suffer when they try and quit using other methods is the misery and depression caused by the belief that they are being deprived of a pleasure or a crutch.
The Allen Carr Method removes this feeling of deprivation.
It removes the need and desire to smoke. Once the smoker is in the right frame of mind and they follow the simple instructions, the physical withdrawal from nicotine is hardly noticeable.
No Gimmicks!
The Method does not use any gimmicks, useless aids or substitutes. No nicotine gum, patches, lozenges, tabs, inhilators or nasal sprays! No needles! No lasers! No drugs! No herbs! No shock treatment!
The Allen Carr Method is successful because:
It removes the smokers’ conflict of will.
There are no bad withdrawal pangs.
It is instantaneous and easy.
It is equally effective for long-term heavy smokers and light smokers.
You need not gain weight.
You will not miss smoking.
Medical Endorsements
A personal view from Professor Judith Mackay MBE, JP, FRCO (Edin), FRCP (Lon), World Health Organisation Advisory Panel on Tobacco and Health
“I have no hesitation in supporting Allen Carr’s work. Many clinics use some of his techniques but it would appear that few do it in quite such a successful package.”
Carole Johnson, Coronary Heart Disease Prevention Unit, Tyne Tees
“his success rate was such that, when budgets allow, we continue to use Easyway for work with specific groups and individuals.”
Dr Anil Visa BSc, MBBch., FRCA, Consultant – Royal Hospitals NHS Trust – Royal London Hospital
“I have observed the Allen Carr method at first hand and have found it to be very successful and I wholeheartedly support it as an effective way to quit smoking.”
Dr William Green, Head of Psychiatric Dept, Matilda Hospital, Hong Kong
“It is a remarkable fact that Allen Carr, on his own admission a non-professional in behaviour modification, should have succeeded where countless psychologists and psychiatrists holding postgraduate qualifications have failed, in formulating a simple and effective way to stop smoking.”
Dr Martin Jarvis, Principle Scientist, Imperial Cancer Research
Fund and Reader in Health Psychology, University College London
”...I am more than happy to testify to Allen Carr’s enduring involvement and to recognise the value of the kind of behavioural and cognitive support he provides.”
Dr PM Bray MB CH.b., MRCGP
“I was really impressed by the method. In spite of the Allen Carr organisation’s success and fame, there were no gimmicks and the professional approach was something a GP could readily respect. I would be happy to give a medical endorsement of the method to anyone.”

-His method is absolutely unique, removing the dependence on cigarettes, while you are actually smoking. I’m pleased to say it has worked for many of my friends and staff.”
Sir Richard Branson
“Some friends of mine who had stopped using Allen Carr’s method suggested I tried it. I did. It was such a revelation that instantly I was freed from my addiction. Like those friends of mine, I found it not only easy but unbelievably enjoyable to stay stopped.”
Sir Anthony Hopkins
GOOD LUCK!You can-t make someone do anything. All you can do is be honest with them. If its a deal breaker i.e. the stop smoking or you break up, then say so and from there it is their choice. If not maybe you can come to some kind of agreement where they only smoke outside or something that makes it easier for you. However you should also realize that you are only half of the equation, and should consider why you want them to stop. If it is just because it irritates you, then you need to think about the fact that they will do lots of things that irritate you and if you really love them it wont matter. You need to accept them as they are. You can-t change people and you shouldn-t love someone for what you think they can/should be. But back to topic if it is really that big of a concern and they agree to try and quit (which you should realize is a hell of a lot harder than you can understand) then be supportive, they may try the patch or gum.. frankly neither works to well but it does help a little. But again if they don-t want to and are only doing it to keep you happy they are going to resent you later on. Take a step back and evaluate where you relationship is and where you want it to be. Then you can decide if something as small as smoking is really an issue.u can-t make someone stop.....they have to want to stop
but u can let them know it hurts u to know that they r killing themselves slowly.I smoked for 14 yrs and i quit about six months ago and i already feel better. my hubby told me i needed to quit a long time ago but i did not listen until i got sick i had tonsillitis for about 2 months i could not smoke so i figured it the best time to quitI don-t think you can force anyone to stop smoking. The person must want to do it for themselves. You could suggest ways of stopping and offer support but you cant force anyone to stop. They must have the will power from within to be able to succeed. Its a very hard thing to do!
