During a recent Sex and the City marathon, I watched an episode where Carrie tried to stop smoking so that she could date this guy Aiden. He told her that he didn’t date women who smoked, so she convinced herself that she could stop any time she wanted and tried to kick the habit for him. However, her first thought was that he should just accept her for who she was, and if he couldn’t, then he could kick rocks. At the end of the episode, we see Carrie flushing her last cigarettes down the toilet saying that ultimately, she was quitting for herself…not for a man… MadameNoire
