Is it wrong to ask your wife to smoke outside and not inside the house? -

I quit smoking 5 months ago and my wife has been smoking outside only. I really do not want her smoking in the house when cold weather/winter sets in. How should I handle this, is it fair to ask her to stay outside smoking for the winter months? I really wish she would stop smoking. Any advice from x-smokers and smokers is appreciated.let her smoke outside, maybe it will encourage her to stop smoking before she gets lung cancer. My husband stopped smoking in the house when I told him he was making the kids sick but he didn-t stop smoking and this past week the doctor told him that he might have lung cancer. Now he wants to stop smoking.She needs to continue to smoke outside. She-s a big girl and she choses to smoke. It-s not fair to you, when you have quit, to have to have it in the house now. Maybe standing out in the freezing cold will help her to realize how insane it is to continue.i htink it is not wrong....my mother is not allowed to smoke even in her own house because my nephew lives there and she doesnt want him subjected to her second hand smoke...smokers can be reasonable....and maybe the cold will be her incentive to quit....Divorce her and marry a non-smoker.Compromise - either build a three season room (no heat but dry and no wind), or heat the garage.well it is not nice to her but it is not nice to the people who have to come inside and smell the smoke so i would sit down and have a talk with her and say if u want to smoke u r going to have to do it outside if u dont want to go outside quit smoking.I hate smoking, my wife just started after not smoking for 20 years, dumb ***, discuss with her the benefits of not smoking and offer to clean the house to get rid of the musty smell. Make your home a smoke free enviroment, no one smokes in the house. Just handle it with care.no, second hand smoke is badNope, nothing wrong at all. When I used to smoke (and my hubby didn-t) I always smoked outside out of respect for him, and because I didn-t want our home smelling like smoke.Make her take it outside or in a certain room or floor. Encourage her to quit. Its easier if other people aren-t lighting up or talking about it.My husband and I had a similar problem. He made the decision to only smoke outside--but it was the polite thing to do. Eventually, he did quit. Maybe the idea of only smoking outside helped. It-s more trouble to have to get up and walk outside. You should encourage her to quit.No it isn-t right. You both smoked in the house then you quit and to make her change because now you don-t is forcing her to change to conform to your desire.Ex-smoker here. Is is not wrong. She is supporting your decision for you to better your health and not smoke anymore. Not to sound too rough, but maybe she-ll decide going out in the cold to smoke just isn-t worth it, and maybe she-ll consider joining you in your decision to live a longer life together. =) Good luck!my husband does not smoke but i do and thank god we have a hallway in our apt complex cause that is where i go to smoke but i resect his right not to have me smoke in the house which by the way was my choice anyway,do you have a closed patio or a garage she can go into to keep a little warm, i dont think at all its rude to ask her to smoke outside all you are doing is protecting your heart and lungs and want to live longer ,i believe its the least she can do considering you could of told her to quit or elseIf having your wife smoke out side only isn-t causing any problems between the two of you then leave it be. Its not wrong..if she respects your wishes then there is no problem.It is the wondering if you would do as she is if she asked you to smoke out side.NoOh i find this one a tough one-as I-m a smoker,i don-t really think your wife will take very kindly to this at all.as you say with winter just around the corner,but i do understand what you are saying,is there not a room that she could go to smoke,and only smoke in that room,you could put a TV in or what ever to make it a bit cosier for her,i mean when you were a smoker would you have liked to be put out in the cold,i think a bit of respect on both sides and you should get somwhere,good luckno it is not wrong and i smoke.Did you smoke in the house when you smoked?

If she wants to quit, i suggest letting her do that on her own terms. Nobody likes being nagged.

If she is smoking outside as a courtesy to you, then she-s a nice person.

If you smoked in the house when you smoked, I don-t think you should have the right to ask her to smoke outside,,, at least not after 5 months anyway.not wrong at all, actually this is going to result in less smoking anyway, you can also try to encourage her for over the counter or nicotene replacement therapy, presription medicines include zyban and chantax, feel free to email me with any questionsYep, it is totally reasonable for you to ask her to go outside. I used to smoke, and I quit, and all of my friends who smoke don-t do it around me because they care about my success and wanted me to succeed at it. I have been quit for 3 years now, so stick to your guns. You can do it!Tell her to put on a coat. Your right to breath is more important.I think so. My mom used to smoke in her appartment. By the time she moved some years later, the walls were covered in nicotine!! The curtains were yellow, and the whole place just reeked!(hey u out there how dare u) in the very first place my wife does not smoke, and even if she does, i do not think it right for a stranger to ask someone elses wife to smoke outside and that also in the cold winter of delhi, if it so happens i will tell her to quit and i can do it pretty well

thanks for your service - but no thankMy Fiancee smokes outside. I didn-t have to ask, but I would if he smoked in the home. Second hand smoke is deadly and you quit smoking for a reason right? I would think one of those reasons would be for better health. So no it-s not wrong to take care of your health. Maybe being out in the cold will motivate her to cut back or stop altogether. But be strong and don-t give in...You may help her in the long run! God Bless and Here-s to your health!I quit smoking about a month ago and I couldn-t stand the amount of smoke that hung in the air inside a house (or car, or whatever) so I would have to say No, it-s not wrong. Maybe she will realize that it-s too cold and not worth it and quit. :)no i would ask my spouse.no it-s not wrong ,i am a smoker but i only smoke outside because of my kids i-m trying to stop but until i do it-s not fair to them or anyone else that comes into my home i have much respect for you for quitting don-t let your wife smoke indoors it will just tempt you and when it get cold she just might quit herself.No, if she respects you enough than it should be a problem with smoking outside.No. She should respect your decision. You made the effort to quit, and her smoking around you is only temptation. You could also give her a disgnated spot (like the bathroom with the door shut) when it gets cold out, open the window, and have a fan blowing the air outside while she-s smoking. That way, it won-t be wafting around the house and all. Good luck.no
