How do I get my friend to quit? She smokes more at parties, and acts like it's ok just when we are out, but I know that she is just fooling herself.

its better to say. "i love you, and im going to have to ask you to quit. what is more important to you? the cigarettes or me."

if she chooses the cigarettes shes screwed up. unless you smell worse then those things... lol jk yeah just do that.

Make sure this is something she really wants to do. Make sure she knows that smoking is hurting her, and she doesn't look cool.

If she still decides to smoke, decide which is more important: Her friendship, or the fact that she is making a decision about her own life that you can't control, no matter how bad you think it is.

You can't force people into anything, and if you really dump a good friend for something like this, you might need to learn this lesson fast.

Just tell them you don't like it when they smoke and that it is really bad for them.  Also, tell them what could happen, show them pictures of a smoker's lungs ((Google it)) and also tell them that addictions are too expensive. ((They are really Y.Y  I'm a manga fanatic and I never have cash for anything else because of it, oh well though))

If they say they're going to quit and don't take their cigs and flush em. (Not kidding, do it.)
