How many smokers do you have in your family? extended and immediate
For me I have one sister who smokes, she knows I quit she teases me a bit about it. I think she is just a bit threatened maybe that I quit, as far as I know she hasn't tried to quit. She is a year older than me and she kind of influenced me to quit. I don't bug her about quitting or shove it in her face because I know that would annoy her and if she wants to quit she will. Hopefully she will too.
My brother a adamant non smoker. hes four years older than me Got his current gf to quit smoking because he hated to smell, I remeber he used to complain to me about how awful I smelled of smoke, more so when i was younger but I remeber being embarrassed being around him smoking. I don't know if he has ever tried but he hates it and can't see him ever becoming a smoker.
My mom hmmm, strange story with her a bit. She smoked when she was a teen and young adult like me I don't know to what extent but she quit before I was born. So I grew up with her not smoking. She would sometimes smoke with me though as a teenager as a way to I dont know relate to me? But never smoked regularly.When she met her bf who is a heavy smoker she started smoking regularly but quit as he still smokes away. She found it easy did it cold turkey don't know how long she smoked that time but not long really. She hated that I smoked and is one of the reasons I quit but really its for me because she nagged me to quit all the time and I didn't listen. She is very proud of me.
My dad, not a smoker, hates smoking.
My aunt was a really heavy smoker and I was really surprised when she quit because I grew up associating the smell of smoke with her. She quit now that she has kids. she is really happy she has and has been quit now for 2 or three years now, I am proud of her!
