To chuck dps tobacco away

[Bambamboom]

Fed up of his smoking, he's 27 with a heart problem and smokes everyday although only when he gets the chance, somedays he will totally go without. It seems to me he's addicted to the habit rather than nicotine. Either way he needs to stop for his own health and my sanity.
Throwing them away and telling him he's quitting probably wasn't the best way to go about it...right? But he certainly needed a shove, he knows he needs to quit, the consultant told him so but he won't without me promoting. He said it should be his decision and I'm being unfair, is it a case of cruel to be kind or am I totally out of order?
either way it's probably pointless he will almost definitely go to work and smoke

"Bacci" is his little comforting treat. So the name is rather fitting. Although, I do know what you mean.

I think you need to use this as the starting point for a discussion where you sit down with him and remind him of how he felt in hospital and tell him how desperately worried you are.

YABU - he is an adult, he makes his own decisions. It is not up to you to decide.

I have to confess to pressuring DP to give up a few years ago. It brought out the worst in me: controlling, disapproving, manipulative even; it made DP resentful and questioning about the basis of our relationship, and I'm not even sure if it was effective.

You have to recognise that if everyone else at work smokes, then it's going to be really, really difficult for him, and you're never going to police it.

Discuss it by all means: tell him how worried you are and that you'd really prefer him to stop. But recognise that like others have said, fundementally it has to be his decision.
