dude, when they smoke, just dont hang out with them. if they are outside the smell of the smoke on your clothes wont be as bad. If they are real friends they wouldnt pressurise you into something you didnt wanna do. However, you could just have one toke to shut them up and then you can decide whether or not you like it and want to continue it bla bla :)
Yes, obviously one single persons opinion outweighs the entire medical community and litraly millions of cases included in the reasearch which lead to the answer...Quote:

Not bull**** as its ****ing true, DON'T TALK ABOUT **** YOU DON'T KNOW FFS!
Your exsperince is worthless if your trying to say if smokeing has an influence on you, since your already under any influnce caused hence to you it would just be your normal state "/ Smokeing for you would relive stress since your already addicted. But that stress is additional to what you would have now if you wernt addicted to nicoteen "/Quote:
Im talking of my own experiences. I tryed to take my life at 7 infact =\
Any Sousideal tendancys have little to do with wether smokeing is a good or bad thing, unless you want to go along the phycolgial lines of it simply being a very slow and exsperince suside your subconsuily undertakeing, although personly that ideas kinda a load a bull**** "/
-.-' You don't have a clue. Please don't try and tell ME what I have expericenced... How the **** would you know?Quote:

Please stop with these stupid responses .... It is just stupid now =\
Anyway... back on the subject;
Just tell them; 'I dont want to smoke, if you want to smoke, thats your choice, but dont offer me one since i choose to NOT smoke, i still want to be your friends, but the smoke offers have to stop!'Quote:

Not particulary good at advice here, but thats what i would do in this situation. :)
EDIT:
Also, my sister smokes, shes older than me, and shes offered me to smoke before, but i told her id prefer not to thanks.
You just have to be firm, then they will get the message sooner or later to stop offering you and pressurizing you into smoking. :)
As -illusions said you haver to be firm with them if they are your friends they will respect your desision. Just tell them you dont wish to smoke if they want to you have no problem with them doing aslong as its not around you
if they continue to to some around you and ask you to smoke - just go to your mum she should trust you if she is your mother just tell her whats going on :)
anyway i hope this helps
just tell them " i dont smoke and wont smoke " and pressure them into answering why they smoke ive heard some pretty funny answers :)
I've been trying to avoid most of them when they smoke, it's been okay but sometimes it's kind of difficult. I've told them that they're affecting their health and they could die younger and they can still stop but they just laughed and said they'd stop soon. My best mate, we've been friends since primary school and she said she'll stop when she loses half a stone and it's really helped because she's been less tempted to eat and just has a ciggie instead. I know I've went on about I want them to stop but it's seemed so tempting because I can tell the difference of weight on her. People on the board probably think I'm a whining hypocrite but the situation is much different than how I can explain on a message board.
Well, they're not very good mates if they're preassuring you(No offence)
They think they're big for smoking , but your the bigger person if you avoid it.
You should ask them not to smoke around you instead of avoiding them. If they're true friends, they would respect the fact that you chose not to smoke and do not want to be around people who smoke. Don't let them pull you in though, no matter what. Smoking causes alot of harm to you.
I dont think your a whining hypocrite, i seriously dont.Quote:

For the moment, stay away from them, when they have calmed down, try saying to them you'd like them to stop, and encourage them if they do try, if not, say you will always be there for them if they reconsider.
Smoking is very addictive, and the younger you start, the more difficult it is to stop once your older and wiser.
Take care of yourself too though, dont let them pressure you into smoking,
Illusions.:)
