    it will effect ur health more. i suggest that u can tell him some theory of bad results after much smoking.
    many people cannot quit it so easily, so have more patience.
    take care.

    The problem is many smokers know that what you tell them is “theory” and never practically believe it. It's a waste of time persuading them. Changing room is much better.

    yea. i agree. but still we can show them some disgusting pics of lungs after much smoking so they will deeply understand the theory. changing room is a good choice when it becomes a must.

    Do you honestly think that's of any avail? Governments from many countries have been doing it for quite long now …. printing graphic images of cancerous jaws, stained teeth, holey throats etc. on cigarette packs to deter people from smoking. Do you think that has really helped? Maybe, the rate of smokers in some parts of the world has reduced, but not considerably.

    yea. I 100% agree with you. It could help just not that much. My point is to try to help smokers first then the OP can try to change a room if it is not working.

    Ask him to try e-cigarette, it will be a good alternative for him and there's no side effects on you.

    Just tell him to smoke outside or near a window with a fan blowing outside. Its not a foolproof idea but at least it would lessen the amount of second hand smoke in the room.

    Is it true that E-cigarettes are cancerous? Or is it just a rumor for people to go back to smoking. IME, it does not work. It was only a fad. I have friends who smoke who tried the e-cig. After a few months, they all went back to the old cigarettes.
