Would date a smoker?

flanders1979

I don't date. I'm Irish. I would drunkenly ride a smoker no problem.

Just wondering if anybody else feels this strongly about smokers?

Have done, but ot for long. And I wouldn't do it again.
It's too difficult when you have to overcome your instinctive reaction of revulsion everytime you get close enough to the other person to smell them.

No, absolutely not.

Only dumb people smoke cigarettes (adults, I'll forgive kids for it since they're naive and prone to peer pressure) and if there's anything I find unattractive it's an obvious lack of intelligence.

If there's anything I find unattractive it's people willing to make such stupid generalisations.

On topic, dating a smoker wouldn't bother me but I would badger them to quit (or at least cut back significantly) if I thought they were smoking too heavily.

I smoked for years and had only ever gone out with smokers. Then I quit and was seeing a smoker for a year and now I'm with a non-smoker and he's the first non-smoker I've ever gone out with. I don't think I could back now although I wouldn't rule it out. As long as he wasn't a heavy smoker.

I would prefer not to. I wouldn't rule out a guy if I really liked him just because he was a smoker but truthfully, I would be happier not to have to kiss someone who tasted like cigarettes. Urgh.

Sorry but smoking, when you're fully aware of the dangers it poses and the damage it actively does to you, is retarded.

Slow down and use lube!! :pac:

Give her something else to smoke instead.

Because dude, smokers are filling their bodies with toxins and killing themselves

I recently quit smoking, so now I hate the smell of cigarettes and dating someone who smoked would be a massive turn off. But at the same time I am always desperate for a shag so I probably wouldn't turn a blind eye if she is a 7 or over.

Yeah because so many people get paid to eat ****....

Ive often gone on a night out and said what do you think of smokers? They say oh they are the filth of the planet,.....I say oh Im a smoker...straight away 'Oh they arent too bad'

Halloran springs

I think smokers are cool, and I like dating cool girls, therefore yes - I would date a smoker.

I'm an ex smoker ...hate smokes the smell makes me ill, but if I really liked someone I could deal with it....I think :cool:

If she was enjoying it she wouldn't smoke until after you were finished.


Just saying;):D

That's the thing, though... Can they be hot if you find their smell revolting?
Cause that would be my problem.

Fecking prude

Aoifey!

I'm a non-smoker dating a smoker and I never even thought of it as a reason not to start a relationship. He smokes in the house as does his roommate and I don't really mind, long as they're not blowing smoke in my face then it's their choice if they smoke or not.

Should of asked them to smoke the bishop instead!

Seriously though it wouldn't bother me.

For a serious relationship this scenario isn't as bad for blokes as it is for the ladies. Cause if she smokes and he doesn't then whenever a kid is on the way she'll be giving up in any case. But if he smokes and she doesn't then that's a different matter- there's no guarantee that he'll give up at any stage in the future so she has to accept it or just not go out with him to begin with.

Having been thru the online dating thing as a smoker and a non-smoker I was amazed at how many more women were available to me as a non-smoker when I searched profiles. For most non smoking girls having a partner who is a non smoker is a total deal breaker.

Paparazzo

Annoying on a date if someone smokes and has to head out to the smoking area every 20 minutes.

Siuin

A cigarette smoker- no.
A weed smoker- probably would.

Tbh it's the frequency and expense of a pointless habit which would turn me off most of all.

Pushtrak

I really wonder how many people who voted no could know a smoker, really like them, and actually be put off going out with that person on the basis of them being a smoker. I don't think it'd be many. In my experience, the people who I have known who've expressed such opinions have always been willing to forego this position in reality.

But yes, yes you would do me whether smoking or not!

If its that good you cant wait until its over!

The smell/turn off of smoking is not important, if you find them physically attractive then they could look and smell like a giant cigarette butt and you would still do them

Ive never ever had a problem! :cool:

Dunno if it´s affected dating but I´ve defo pulled more women as a result of smoking , put that in your pipe and smoke it OP! :pac:

I couldn't, I just hate it too much. I know of a girl who fancies me but that's the very reason I haven't pursued it any further.

Smoking area, huh?

"Oh, you need a light? Certainly..."

Actually, that reminds me, will have to remember to bring a lighter with me. I've switched to an electronic cigarette, and last time I was out, I was asked for a lighter a load of times, but couldn't oblige as I didn't have a lighter. Heck, I'll bring the lot (or a lot) out, and feck most of them away. Damn stockpile of lighters.

Smoking area gets all the action! :P

Was out earlier, asked at the bar did they have any matches (it was a hotel) they said no, aussie bloke at the bar says oh you need a lighter for a smoke? I said yeah, his friend gave me a lighter, followed me out 5 minutes later asking me if I was staying in the hotel etc...

You can always pull in the smoking area lol

bnt

Absolutely not. Not only for what it is (smell, expense, etc.) but for what it says about the person. It is so obviously bad, in more than one way, that you have to be wilfully ignorant to keep doing it.

Fast moving up my list of favourite boards people, bet you feel even more special now?!! :P

Seriously if two people are drunk you won't even notice the smell not unless they start sticking fingers in your gob and want you to suck them!

Anyway I'd more worried about the smell of their ............. (incert your own word) if thats good then game ball

It wont smell like cigarettes, unless they are homeless!!!!!

Nobody even notices the smell of cigarettes, 2 people fancy each other and they pull, great. It doesnt come into account! Ive yet to meet anyone who notices the smell off me.

Ive often said oh what do you think of smokers, they say they are horrible etc, I say im a smoker and they quickly change their tune.

Youre attracted to them or youre not, if smoking turns you off in terms of a relationship fair enough, but they are always good for a shag lol

No, its true. If you have good hygein and stuff. People will be none the wiser, that you smoke.

HalloweenJack

Well, I'm a smoker so yeah. It'd be hypocritical not to.

I actually find something sexy about girl's smoking.

God would date a smoker, so would Jesus..

For shame AH, for shame.

Have done loads of times - the older I get, the less appealing it is. The odd ciggie with a drink is grand but a daily, habitual smoker - would be an issue for me.

Its an addiction, its not something you stop doing at the drop of a hat.

yellowtrout

I smoke so it wouldn't bother me but my other half quit smoking a year ago and can't stand the smell of it, which I understand but it's annoying-he has a short memory!
I would date a smoker but only if I smoked too-if I quit then I wouldn't.

The Snipe

I'm a smoker and my girlfriend isn't, She says she doesn't mind the taste, and she rather likes to smell of smoke (When its being smoked - I doubt its the after smell) And I always feel bad about being a smoker when I'm with her. Shes my first non-smoker girlfriend, so I find it quite hard on myself, as I feel quite guilty.

Hence, I'm actually cutting back, and planning on quitting too; because I don't think its fair on her. She doesn't nag about it or anything at all, but still! :P

Palytoxin

No, don't like the smell of smoke, and definitely not in my own house.

Tombi!

No. I'm in my 20s. We grew up knowing that smoking had only negative effects to your health. So no, I wouldn't.

Actually just to add: if they were trying to quit or didn't smoke all the time (just maybe at a break in work or something) I wouldn't be totally against it. But anyone who smokes a lot and at home, there's no way I'd date them.
