A member asked:
My boyfriend smokes a pack of cigarettes a day, for many years now. im really worried about his future health, mine too from secondhand. hes not concerned at all. are there known successful ways to help someone understand the dangers and quit?

I'm sure he has heard and seen all the dangers of smoking, but is addicted to the nicotine and the habits of smoking (ie, have to have a smoke after dinner or after sex). Until he is willing to admit he has a problem, very little you do that he hasn't already been told, is likely to make a difference. Now you need to decide whether it's worth it for you to risk your health and stay with him..?
