How to visit friends that smoke when you are a non smoker
Be honest.
One way to deal with the situation is just to broach the topic directly. Bring up that you'd appreciate it if they don't smoke around you.

Select from:
- Your friend might be caught in a lie, but if they're on friendly terms, you can ease the situation gently by asking nicely. Ask how a friend smoke, how much of a hardship it has been, and if it's a healthy way to forget the problem once they stop using it.
- It's also helpful to back up what you're saying with reasons why you don't like having secondhand smoke around. You could say, " i know i'm a guest here, but i'd really appreciate it if you didn't smoke around me while i'm here.
- You might also consider saying, " it's important for me to have good habits, but i am not going to smoke around you. I want you to know how much my habits may hurt you, and i may need to adjust my lifestyle to allow for that, too.
- Making this clear will even help to make it easier for your friend to respect your house rules. If you are not sure about how and when to bring up your friend's smoking habit, suggest that you could come up with some ways you could perhaps avoid it.
