I have dated a couple of smokers, briefly, it turns me off.

I spent 6+ years in the Army and smoked about a pack (yes, one) in all those 6 years trying to figure out what the attraction was. Cigarettes just annoyed the heck out of my already aggravated allergies.
I have dated one smoker, and probably will never do that again.

My ex was a non smoker and even more anti smoking than I was. One of our kids, in her rebellious phase started smoking, and hot boxing. She got in trouble at school and got expelled for the rest of the semester. I was a stay at home mom at the time. Her punishment was worse than death. She had to quit smoking cold turkey and was grounded until she got back in school. She had to spend nearly every waking moment with ME!. She never smoked again. We nearly killed each other, but today she is an amazing responsible young adult.

Only if it's cannabis, and I prefer it's smoked on the balcony as it could cause an asthma attack. Edibles are preferable.

I might date a smoker, but I guess I'd always have the stress of health risks in the back of my mind. (I know you've got to die of something, but having lost a friend to emphysema has clouded my vision a little).

I don't want to smell them, breathe smoke or deal with the health issues. Lost two partners to smoking related disease. It took me several attempts, but I am smoke free for over six years, and I still have cravings. I'll never start again, but I hate being around them. Still have friends and family who smoke, but I am not adding more.

I smoked for years but I able to quit 17 years ago. I wouldn’t even consider dating someone who is a smoker.

Don't smoke any more, but I love vaping.....

I used to smoke and don't now but I do like the taste of someone's mouth who has been smoking. it's not sexual though

No smokers for me because I loved it so much, I'd probably start again.

Agreed.
My must nots are: Religion, Smoking, Drugs, Abuse of Alcohol, lack of intelligence, dishonesty, irresponsible

I have smoked most of my life. It kind of defines you more than anything really. I worked it out once that I had 3 times as many gay friends as non-smokers. I started off with cigarettes but now I smoke a pipe, which smells even worse but traps more tar so is better for me. My daughter asked me at 13 if I could just smoke cigarettes when I came to see her. She did not mind the smell as much as my pipe. I did think about it but rejected the idea because I wanted her to be repulsed by the habit. I only date smokers as we are breed apart.

My neurologist has told me that the issues in my brain (white matter disease, evidence of stroke, and a small non-cancerous tumor) were probably caused by smoking/second hand smoke. Whether is is or not I'm not going to debate; it's there and I don't want it getting worse. I have also had a heart attack, and nicotine constricts your blood vessels. I personally believe it's in my best interests to stay away from cigarette smoke. Because of my various health issues I would not date a person who smokes.

Even when I did smoke? I never dated a smoker and could not understand how they could get around that taste? Eww.
That being said to become hooked you get past hacking up a lung and turning pea soup green from it.
I actually met a Heroin Addict who told me he could quite Heroin but not cigarettes? It put in perspective.
I quit after seeing my non-smoking BIL develop Lung cancer on top of his Bowel Cancer (it spread to his lungs). It is not the way I would ever choose to go. That was the final incentive. I quit.

Cigarettes are gross and disgusting, and Id like to see the price go to $20 a pack.

I smoked for 35 years. I gave up 10 years ago. I look back with total disbelief that I ever smoked those obnoxious little constructs. Yet I found it one of the most difficult things to stop doing. People that smoke stink rotten to me now. I could never get intimate with a smoking woman. In fact, I would date a woman that had a strong religious belief over a smoking one.

Everyone has addictions. Even if they don’t want to admit it. Some drink wine, some exercise, some gamble, some eat, some clean.

I smoked cigarettes for 25 years, quit when I turned 35. I drank for 20 years, quit when I turned 30. Cigarettes and alcohol did nothing for me, in the end. They made me sick, and drained my savings.

Not my favorite thing, to kiss and taste cigarettes or alcohol, but I’ve smoked pot for 30 years. So no judgements, just preference.

As a smoker I prefer smokers
Getting ones ear bashed by nagging nonsmokers is unpleasant.

I don't like dating someone who smokes. Everything smells like cigarettes, his clothes, his hair, his breath. Ick. Not to mention that I really don't want to have to inhale the smoke for personal and health (chronic bronchitis) reasons. I suppose that if I really, really liked someone, I'd try to overlook it.

I don't care either way rather a smoker than a drinker or worse....a vegan aaaahhhh jk

That 'tried it and rejected it' was my experience, too. So glad I never started. I find it mostly a repulsive habit, and sadly an indicator of an irrational or poor choice somewhere along the line. That being said, the pleasure smokers get from it and the addictive nature certainly leads to people continuing to smoke. They still seem quite successful at luring in a percentage of the youth market, as well.

I would prefer someone who doesn't smoke but if there's more that binds us. together than smoking, perhaps I can to torelate it, I have conflicting feelings about smoking And people who kiss their pets. Both are in my red zone.

I have never smoked.... cigarettes! I don't smoke weed. But I respect any human habit or vice.
