Relationship Standards
Hey just wanted to seek a bit of advice/an opinion from the community.

Recently l got into an argument with a friend over the standards that I hold for the opposite sex. I don't think it's too much to ask, but I require that they are at least some form of skeptic, naturally, a non-alcoholic and a non-smoker.

The last bit really seemed to strike said friend as silly. He suggested that I'm a bit of a fool for caring so much about whether or not a woman smokes, despite my objections (cost, smell, etc) and telling him that I once was an asthmatic due to my parents smoking previously.

Anyone else I've talked to, women included, think this is totally acceptable and normal. What do you guys and gals think? Am I asking too much?

I understand the whole deal about requesting the person quit and that l shouldn't really worry what he thinks, just looking for some more opinions.

Also I strictly mean cigs, not the good combustibles.
No creator in the heavens above (I am the lightning)
Rest your weary mind
No demons in the furnace below (I am the frenzy)
I have realized I AM GOD
