Join Him or Her
If you are a smoker, then by joining him, your chances for quitting can increase manifold as you get instant support from someone close to you. Even if you are not a smoker, there surely must be an area in your life on which you have been meaning to work and hence you can make that your goal. It could be losing weight, exercising more, meditating or cutting back or abandoning alcohol. Whatever it may be, start helping your partner quit smoking by setting goals for yourself too. So in case he feels the urge to smoke a cigarette, you can help him by modeling how you too are staying away from brownies and French fries.
Keep Him/Her Away from Triggers and Triggers Away from Him/Her
Some people or situations can be triggers for wanting to smoke again. As a way to help him quit smoking, try to make plans that do not revolve around friends who smoke or places where everyone is happily puffing away. Remove ashtrays and other stuff from around the house which can serve as constant reminders of the bad habit. Unsubscribe from smoker promotional emails and mailings that send discount coupons and other incentives to continue smoking.
Get Busy
Enroll in a cooking class or learn ballroom dancing together. It may not be a magic pill, but it may help you get his mind off smoking and in to some other creative outlet.
