M: We seem to be having this conversation over and over again.
W: You’re right.
M: Look, I know how you feel about my smoking. You don’t have to tell me every day.
W: I’ m sorry. I worry about you. Let’ s be honest. There’ s always going to be a reason. After you graduate, it’ s going to be hard to find a job, then there will be the stress from just starting a job.
M: OK, I get your point. It’ s just so hard. You don’ t really understand because you have never smoked.
W: You need some help. Why don’ t you go to a doctor?
M: You mean a psychiatrist?
W: No, I don’t. I mean a general practitioner. Maybe you can get a patch, or some pills. Well, I don’t know, something to help you with the withdrawal.
M: Really, I believe I can quit on my own. But I’ 11 think about it. I will.
W: All right. I won’t mention it for a week. Then I want to know your decision. Because if you don’t get some help, I need to rethink our plans.
M: You mean you’ d break our engagement over this? I can’ t believe it!
W: I don’t know.
