I wish I knew why. I've tried to quit four times but I can't seem to get past three months without starting to smoke again.

She knows you smoke, as I know my wife smokes. You can't hide the evidence from a non-smoker. The problem is not that you smoke against her wishes - it is that she doesn't know how to confront you for lying to her and fears broaching the issue, so she pretends she doesn't know. I suppose parents do this when they find out their kids are using life-threatening illegal drugs. Pretending they don't know is just a way of coping with an awful fear. You are making you wife feel awful, trust me.

No one can make you quit. Only you can decide that. I smoked for a long long time, everyone wanted me to quit.I just ignored them and smoked on. One night, after I had just bought 2 cartons of cigarettes, I lit one, smoked it,and then said to myself, "That is the last one I will ever smoke."And it was! It's been 13 years.How did I do it? WILL POWER. You can too.

I understand that quitting smoking is really hard, but you're a jerk for lying. My SO lied to me for over a year about quitting smoking, and when I found out that he'd been lying to me, it hurt me so much. It still makes me sad to think about the day I found out.

I've been trying to quit over the past year. The best thing I have tried is Chantix. I was doing fine until I got around other smokers. Now I've got to get my mind right and spend another 300.00 and do it all over again. You will quit when YOU ARE READY. There is no easy way. Will Power.

You are an adult...If you decide to smoke...smoke! I mean really...Where in anyones vows does it say that "If you currently dont smoke and you start, I will divorce you" I mean really people....You are still a person whether you are married, or in a relationship...Tell her, don't lie to her...You know the cigarettes are bad for you but if you chose to smoke why hide it from the person that is supposed to be your best friend? Dude, really?

He hides his smoking because he feels like he failed and it's difficult to admit that the cigs get the best of us. It's horrible to think that paper and dried plant have us so hooked.

I lived with my ex for 2 years she told me she quit smoking but was still doing it at work and thought I couldn't smell it even though she brushed her teeth, gargled, and sprayed perfume on her before she came home.I left her because of it. Trust me you still smell like smoke!!!! SHE KNOWS!!!!!

Why do you do it? Smoke and tell her you do at work...or quit. No need to lie about it.

continue lying and increase the gravity of your lies. Develop a new persona.

My husband is smoking at work when we were both quitting Dec 2nd. Its been almost a year now. He hides it and I know. My trust in him had diminished and I only wonder what else he is hiding.
