Dear Blake,
My husband quit smoking for a few years, and now he has started again. I hate the way it smells and so does our kids. What do you suggest I do to make him quit permanently?

Dear Angie,
Nicotine by far is the most addicting substance on earth. So to encourage him to quit smoking, you may want to consider starting a habit that will have him equally irritated. It is important for you to remember that there are many ways that your husband can quit smoking. One of the options is to visit an Orlando hypnotist. You should mention the health risks and most importantly, how this makes you feel. It’s not like he doesn’t know that smoking is bad for him. Plus, he managed to quit before, so it’s not like he can’t do it again. To get him on the right path, why not show him sites such as Gourmet Eliquid that your husband can look into if he decided that vaping would be his preferred method of quitting. Finding products from a vapor shop that can help those addicted to cigarettes move towards potentially less harmful habits can only be positive. It is best to do your research first before making any decision though! Who wouldn’t want to give up smoking if they know that it negatively impacts their health? Maybe if you show him products like the PAX 3, he might soon change his mind! I know it would change mine for sure if I were a smoker. Some husbands have issues with their wives weight, so every time he lights up, you go to Burger King and eat a Whopper. He’ll eventually get the hint, that whenever he reaches for a Marlboro, you’ll waddle out of the front door licking your chops. In the 50’s and 60’s, exploding cigars were very popular practical jokes. You probably could do the same with a cigarette and gun powder. I am not saying to rig one of his cigarettes that will kill him or cause any serious injury. Just make it powerful enough swell up his face and knock out a few teeth. From a psychological perspective, people with raggedy mouths are often self conscious about smoking. I hope this helps.
