Toi -“smoking cigarettes is not cause for divorce. you decry divorce as an obvious option for frum couples, then go on to say that smoking is severe enough of an issue to end a marriage. that is retarded.”
Struck a raw nerve, huh? If you have ever read my posts regarding smoking this post shouldn’t come as a surprise to you. I’ve been very vocal that a girl shouldn’t marry a guy who smokes. If s/o starts smoking after their marriage, the spouse should try to get him to quit. I’ve posted umteen times that this is done by a three-pronged approach. If he doesn’t want to really try, then she should use an ultimatum as a last resort. It can’t just be an empty threat.
