Can anyone help me?

Hi. I have to tell my best friend that I have recently started smoking because of all the stress I've been under lately. Does anyone know how I can tell her?

Erm.

You: "I've started smoking."?

I don't believe there is a particular approach to this.

Um....just tell her you have started smoking. Thats the only way to go at it....

I would explain to her all of the pressure that you have been under latley then say something like "i have picked up a bad habit" and if you are willing to quit you could ask her to help you get over it.

Are you willing to quit?

Light one up in front of your friend. That's what I did. 'Course I had been smoking for about a year by then. I quit a few months after I told my bro though. Haha, when you really like a girl you'll quit anything (methanphetimine included). :)

If she's doesn't like smoking, and your a good friend, smoke only outside, or when she's not around.

Friendship also goes both ways, she might actually put up with your smoking.
