Quit: Cigarrette smoke can be fatal to asthmatics. Do you love this girl more than your addiction?

If you love her....: If you really love her, then you will quit for her sake. You will be putting her at much greater risk for sever lung damage and infections. That's not fair.

Quit the smokes: Quit even if you just like her. If you care about anyone, respiratory disease or not, you should quit because second-hand smoke hurts everyone. The person you'll help the most is you.

Quit: If you care about her, quit. If you care about yourself, quit. If you care not to end your life suffering, quit. Smoking is dumb, and smokers look ignorant rather than cool. Try breathing air! breathing is one of life's most pleasurable experiences, and smoking deprives smokers of that pleasure in exchange for the cheap thrill of a drug reaction. Stop being an idiot and quit!

Love yourself: You have to love yourself before you can love somebody else. If you do love yourself - you have to take care of yourself first you do not need any more time to think- quit smoking. Don't ruin your life further!.
