i share a room w/ my friend who smokes like a chimney. everytime she puffs her cigarettes, i usually cover myself up with my blanket. But sometimes if i am not yet sleeping, i find it hard to cover myself up from the smoke. i feel so helpless. i tried giving her some hints by smoking as well when i am w/ her and she's not smoking but it ends up that she'll join me and leave me w/ my finished stick. i am getting frustrated now.

That's very disrespectful of her. If I were you, I would tape her habit that endangers your health regularly. keep this tape, if you ever got sick because of this, you will be able to sue her with the tape as your proof. No I'm serious it can be done, as long as you have the proof. Or maybe move out. maybe she does that so that you move out

Your friend should have enough respect for you to not smoke in front of you. She should go outside or something. I smoke also and if anyone had a problem with it, I would respect them and move away from them.

WHy don't you tell her you don't want to breath her smoke any more and shes not allowed to smoke inside the place. I also suggest moving out and finding non-smokers to live with if she wont comply. Your health is at stake and you have a right to a soke-free living space.
