How to act when you want someone to quit smoking

My wife has been smoking since she was 18 and stopped at 26. That was the year when we married. Before that we were together for 2 years and the smoking was the only thing I didn’t like with her. But during this two years every time I started to talk about her quitting that habit I saw ignoring or even getting annoyed. It is an addiction, and as with any of them, a person addicted must first either start to quit himself or ask you for help.

1 day before we married she said she wanted to stop. I was very happy. From that moment when I told her how good she was doing for her health or mow much money she saved (really, experts say that in the U.S. one can save as much as $400 k and afford himself a nice retirement). I congratulated her every day she didn’t smoke. I think she felt additionally happy because she didn’t smoke from the day we were married. We downloaded and installed a computer program where she put in how much she had smoked before, her age and other physical measures and the program told her every day how much money she saved and how many more days her life will last.

Next week we are going to celebrate our 10th anniversary in a posh restaurant and of course in non-smoking section!
