		<description>You can&#039;t make her stop. That is a decision she has to make on her own. In this day and age, she is aware of the risks (people tell us that smoke the risks ALL the time). It is important to know that although there are some serious health risks associated with smoking, it doesn&#039;t mean she&#039;ll develop any of the problems anytime soon; it depends on her overall health, age, length of time she&#039;s been smoking, and other factors. Many women quit smoking entirely when they get pregnant...that&#039;s not reason for her to get pregnant, though. If you stay together and decide to start a family, that would be her best shot at quitting. As a smoker, all you can do is occaisionally bring stopping up to her. Nagging her to quit will not make her quit. She will probably just get sneaky and continue smoking behind your back and say &quot;oh, yeah, I quit&quot;.

If it is something you can tolerate about her, stay with her. If it&#039;s something that you can&#039;t tolerate, hard as it will be, you should end it. I had a few guys break up with me because I smoked. They knew I smoked when we started going out. It hurt that they broke up with me over something like that, and it was really hypocritical since they smoked pot (which I didn&#039;t know about when we started going out), but there&#039;s nothing to do but accept that not everyone you go out with will accept your habits.</description>

		<description>If you smoke, your mind has been programmed by repetition.

This programming can be undone easily and effortlessly through the power of hypnosis. 

For the price of a carton of cigarettes, you can end this DISGUSTING, EXPENSIVE, UGLY habit FOREVER !!!!</description>
