Cool or Uncool? I think it's cool when you're young, not so cool when you're older. Any thoughts?

I smoke and I personally think its a bad habit that immediately disqualifies you from certain women. And i'm 22. So being young has nothing to do with it. It leaves a horrible smell that some people just can't handle. This comes off your clothes, breath, your hands etc.. so you can't really hide it. I am currently trying to quit, for myself and to see how it improves my responses from women.

It really a double edged sword. Anyone in the game should definitely stay in shape and cigarettes don't help. If you're a regular smoker, when you're older, they'll really take their toll on your appearance.

That being said, a lot of chicks smoke, they're a natural prop, and they can put you at ease. I'm an infrequent smoker and make it a point never to touch them when I'm not in social situations.

It kills you and makes you smell like shit. Definitely not cool.

I've yet to hear of a story where someone was undateable cause they didn't smoke. However, I've heard many stories where a smoker has been undateable.

Ok Cruizin in on this issue. If I see two sets of equally Hb 8's and one set smokes...and the other does not...i go for the non smokers. Peeeersonal preforance. Smoking and stink are points against prospective women.

+ I don't like hats on girls...Ugly feet...mustaches on girls ....and back hair ....ooo.oooo.. and unshaven legs = all points against prospective sets. no appologies from me!

Is a bad habit as posted above. Is one of those things you can't quit but you want to. I am really gonna try after new years.

As far as gaming goes, I think it's better not to smoke. It kills your breath and makes you smell like cigarretes.

Neither cool nor uncool. Some girls like it and some dont.

Problem with smoking is that it is sometimes a statement, you choose a team and may be judgmental to people from the opposite team. Dont.

Seriously, it is not a big deal.

bbardot: you just reminded me about porn

there's a saying that goes: "the best of women smoke; with men it's the other way round" I found that there's some truth in it regarding women.
I personally love "the cigarette after" (sex) it's even much better if she does too. but sharing some pot after or rather in between is the best.

I fucking love smoking, sorry guys that's the truth. I've smoked since i was 15. I could probably quit, but i don't want to. And i don't smoke to fit in with people, just cause i like it. Infact I hang around with a group of millitant non-smokers, but they like me as a friend so it's not really an issue.

Smoking has got me the shift on a night out (That's what we call it where I'm from) it's also made me plenty of friends cause it's very social. I found that sharing a fag with someone is an incredible bonding experiance, guys and girls. As well as that there is no one more popular in a bar than the guy with all the cigarettes.

Its a fantasic prop as well, girl comes up and says "Hey, have you got a fag?" and i just look at her and think - I know you, you're not a smoker. Why do you want one?- answer: she wants one off me. That was my que to crack her open.

Another time a girl i was semi-familiar with asked me if i wanted to go outside for a smoke. I almost burst out laughing. WE WERE IN THE SMOKING AREA INSIDE. Very subtle honey.

I'm not sure what you guys think, you probably disagree. But i think a smoking girl is much more attractive than a non smoker. I'm not sure why. It's like danger or something. It's hard to explain. We smokers also regard non smokers as naive little shits who would condemn something that they've never tried. just because they've been told how bad it is.

I really hope I'm not turning you guys into smokers, if i am then i'll gladly share an oxygen tank with you in 40 years time. As with anything the motivation behind it is what determines if it's bad for you or not. If you smoke because you like it, that's fine. If you smoke because you want to be cool, that's bad. Simples. It also varies from girl to girl. But then again everything does. You can't simply state that all girls hate smokers in the same way that you can't say that girls only like blond guys.

Some girls like well built guys, some like skinny.
some girls like smokers, some don't

Judge it as it comes. Keep a pack of cigarettes on you when you go out and use them as a prop. If a girl asks you if you want to go outside for a smoke then you can, if she doesn't like it then you don't need to do it and if it's dead inside then you have a reason to go outside and talk to the smokers.

It's better to have them and not need them than to need them and not have them.
