I’m currently pregnant and my friend smokes around me. We went to a city getaway on the weekend. He smoked in the lounge area while I was there?

Does this make him a bad friend? He knows I’ve cut off smoking and I’ve complained I hate the smell

What he demonstrated to you is that he does not care about your pregnancy, your health, his health or any one else's health around him. I had a 'friend' that was a nicotine addict, and I had the same problem with her, and she now has COPD. She cried like a child, in front of her daughter, because I admonished her for Sneaking out to smoke, when she promised to quit.

An addict, is an addict, drugs, alcohol, or nicotine. I dropped an alcoholic girlfriend for her addiction as she would not enter treatment, and nearly killed her daughter DUI.

You need to dump this thoughtless, friend.

Thanks for the MHO and hope you follow through with finding another kinder friend.

Yes, it is a bad friend who does not care whether they smoke or not smoke around their pregnant female.

He should have been more respectful of your situation. Rude!

Maybe just remind him. Sometimes when people have a habit they do it without thinking about it.

Yeah, if he won't stop smoking around you!
