Smoking

Messages

When I was diagnosed with Type 2 last year, I gave up smoking almost straight away and stayed that way for about 8 months. I then met a girl who smokes and we live together. As you can imagine, I have found it very difficult to not smoke and have on occassions started smoking (mostly at the weekends). I'm very disappointed with myself and I have discussed it with my gf and she says she will give up but it's not materialised yet. I don't want to stop the relationship, but I find it really really difficult not to smoke when she's around. She works in a very stressful job and I don't really think she'll stop any time soon. Any thoughts that people may have would be appreciated!

Cheers,

Max
 
You could ask her to restrict her smoking to one particular part of the house or to go outside.If she understands the need for you to stop smoking then she should be willing to do this.
