Give and get support around quitting

Does anyone have advice on quitting when you're living with a smoker who doesn't want to quit?

I've quit 3 times.  Once for a whole year.  But Ican't beat the constant trigger that living with a smoker brings.  I so want to quit again, but the fear of failing yet again is keeping me back.  I find myself irritated with him for not wanting to quit even though his health is failing because of it.  I know it's all up to me if I want to quit, but I feel much like an alanon person.  Don't want to leave the person I love, but I'm finding it harder to live with and am tired of beating myself up because I can't do it. Any thoughts?

I just realized that I responded to a blog of yours that is current and that THIS one is six months old.  I still think there should be no smoking in the house, by ANYONE, whether or not they want to quit and the same with the car.  There HAVE to be smoke free zones.
