Question
This guy I'm dating, he's almost 17, smokes cigars. He's never smoked a cigarette before but I was wondering what the effects of smoking cigars are. I'm really worried about him. Should I be?
Answer
Smoking anything is really bad for the body of the person who is smoking, and the body of anyone who breathes the second hand smoke. It would be nice if he did not smoke around you.
