People who smoke look older than their actual age. ( most of them look like crap after a few years )

I was married to a smoker. He tried several times to quit. Couldn't do it. I ended up with chronic lung problems from second hand smoke. It took four years of being seperated from him to start feeling better. I still have shortness of breath though.

Please don't start. This is an addiction that is nearly impossible to stop.
