I would not be cool w/a BF hounding me to quit smoking. I know it's bad for me- but I CHOOSE to smoke anyway b/c it's a habit I enjoy. I also enjoy Big Macs and I DARE a BF to say "you know those could make you fat and obecity is a health risk" If you don't like the taste of a smoker's kiss or the scent in the air- fine- date a nonsmoker. But to simply say you would harp someone for health reasons alone seems a bit silly to me. There's a reason I don't date my doc and I don't want my date acting like my Doc.
BTW- Do you think it's OK that it would be socially acceptable to influence your SO to quit smoking/drinking but completely Taboo to criticize what a woman eats? Seems contradictory to me.
It's not a matter of what is true that counts but a matter of what is perceived to be true.
