Silence your cravings: 51 percent of singles said that taking a smoke break on a first date is a deal breaker, according to a new survey by Match.com.
In fact, the survey respondents--who were both smokers and non-smokers--considered lighting up more offensive than checking your phone or showing up late.
Slave to your cigs? Nix your bad habit by picking up a good one. People who exercise when they crave cigarettes are more likely to overcome the urge to smoke, finds a report published in the journal Addiction. Breaking a sweat may distract you from thinking about taking a puff, researchers say. Plus, hitting the gym may lift your mood and boost self-control, reducing your impulsiveness, says lead study author Adrian Taylor, Ph.D., a professor of exercise and health psychology at the University of Exeter in Britain.
