Neighbours, ugh.

[Acronychal]

Alright, well, my mother and I have new neighbours. They're nice enough people, but super big partiers. Honestly, I don't think they ever stop.
My mom has been hanging around them and that's fine, she's having fun. I've now met the kids, they're nice too.
The problem with this, is the cigarette smoke. It is DISGUSTING! Honestly, I can't stand it. The first day was alright, but I hung around with them again today and the smoke was overpowering. I made an excuse up fast and booted my way home. I couldn't get the smell out of my nose, and kept tasting the smoke in my mouth. I wanted to scream, it was awful.
I don't want to keep avoiding them or anything, because they are nice people. But I also don't want to get cancer from all the second-hand smoke! My mom quit smoking over 8 years ago, and she can't stand the smoke either, but she puts up with it because they're nice. I don't know what to do. I don't think they're going to be quitting anytime soon...

I think you should tell them that the smoke really irritates you.

Most smokers are aware that the smoke can be physically irritatimg to non smokers, so I'd bet that they'd respond favorably. More favorably than you and your mom either bolting out of there or avoiding them altogether.

nah, that seems sorta rude, imo you should just put some vapor rub under your nose to create a strong long lasting smell to overpower the smoke.

It's only rude if you say it in a mean way. I think that you should invite them to your house next time and maybe put up some smoke free signs to give them hints.

I cant stand smoke either. I suggest you tell your mom and then tell them. Hopefully they wont do it anymore.

i hate smoke too. our neighbours all smoke and i have to keep my bedroom window shut because of it, because they always come out into their yard, near my window to do it. i feel your pain there.

I think you should tell them not to smoke around you. Be kind about it obviously but I think if they want you around they have to be flexible.
