Current Events > "If you can eat meat, then I can smoke cigarettes"

(+) Yeah! (+)

Okay so I hate it when my girlfriend decides to smoke and I would tell her that I would neither kiss nor sleep with her if she did.

The argument is that eating meat is more damaging to one's health and environment than smoking is.

Whenever I decide to eat meat around her, she would say that if I can do that, she could smoke a cigarette.

Although I don't see how eating meat comes any close to how harmful smoking is, but I just don't have any arguments to counter with.

Sounds like a relationship that wont be lasting long tbh.

This relationahip wont end well

Smoking makes your breath smell bad, Smoking hurt MY lungs when you do it around me.

If you want a scientifically sound argument, just look up scholarly articles on the safety of meat and the risks of smoking.

If you want a troll answer, ask her how many lions have died of lung cancer

Either way, shes got to respect your comfort zone with smoking.

She's right. Either step up to the plate and quit meat, so she'll quit smoking, or deal with it.

I wish secondhand baconing was a thing...

Sounds like you both have issues. If you knew she smoked when you started dating her that's your fault tbh

If you can fuck my sister, then I can sleep with your father

Any relationship where it's "I can do this bad thing because you do this thing" isnt healthy. Especially when, as it sounds, she does it especially just to piss you off.

Find a non smoker who isnt vegan/vegetarian or whatever her label is

I'd be limiting myself a lot if I exclusively dated non-smokers. The least I could do is encourage them to quit.

Tell her you'll smoke a cigarette if she will eat da meat fair trade seeing as she dont like da meat and you domt like cigarettes

But for real kissing I can sort of understand but sleeping?

Because I want to get my point across, and she knows I mean it for the better. A bit of a childish approach, but what gives.

Sounds like you need to dump her

Never smoked one cigarette in my life. Don't think I've ever held onto one either.

It's not your decision if they quit or not though, and taking it out on her by not kissing or sleeping with her because she smokes is pretty emotionally fucked.

You cannot expect to change her as she cannot expect to change you so just suck it up or break up.

If she ever wants to quit smoking then you can jump in and help, otherwise dont force her.
