yeah I would say like
"nah I'm good" or
"no thanks I dont smoke"
and all that
but if for some reason they presssure you into it the best thing is soo NOT INHALE.
like just puff out.
and then i would "accidentally" drop it and be like opps but thats just me im kind of a spaz
and if they offered again i'd be like
"and drop it again, wasting? no thanks!"
hope its helpful :)

The worst thing you can do is take it if you're against smoking and don't want it.
Either tell them you're a non smoker, or just plainly say "na, it's alright!"
They won't be offended whatever you decide to say!

just say i dont smoke. and if they try to make you try it say no and if they bother you leave, but dont smoke..especially because most people get addicted and so many people die from it. say something like:

thanks, but i dont smoke.

no, im good, thanks.

or something like that. just dont give in

hope i helped

a way to pass off a cigarette is to just be like,"oh no thank you, i don't smoke." which is being kind and letting them know you don't at all at the same time, so they won't have to ask you again. i hope i helped.

"No thanks, I don't smoke"

Then you won't be offered one again.

If you say
"I feel bad about taking your share"
they might give you a cig and expect you to smoke.


I'm sure you don't smoke?

You should just say No.

Well, first of all, you should never feel like you have to bite your tongue when it comes to your beliefs and values. People will respect you if you just come out and say " No thanks, I don't smoke" or "No thanks, but I'm not into that" This way you are acknowledging the offer, but making it clear you don't want to do it. Don't feel pressured. 99.9% of time people will leave you alone after you say that. If they tease you or something, just stand your ground and say nicely "Haha, no really, I don't want it, but you go ahead."
