Why do you smoke?!

I am not smoking, but my parents and friends are... please help me to understand you... why do you smoke?!

 

I don't; and can never understand people who do. I tried it as a teenager but thought it was horrible. Therefore your guess is as good as mine.

 

Ok i do smoke and i know the reason
1) You smoke when you get really frustrated
2) Smoking gives me more energy .. lol
3) I like to touch and handle cigarettes
4) I like to be different hehe
5) Just to crack time
6) Smoking helps me relax when I’m tense or upset.
7) I crave cigarettes ; I am addicted to smoking
8) Lastly ( girls or boys can ditch to you partners, but cigarettes cant, because you can buy it but you cant buy them )

"SMOKING makes people come togather"

I think these reasons are enough hehe j/k

 

Lol, but seriously. Have you ever considered to quit smoking? Like, it is eventually going to kill you, probably faster than normal.

 

I dnt smoke

 

I like it

 

Because I'm addicted.

 

Lolz thats the best answer i think

 

capri often. cigar rarely.

 

I'd love to quit but it's so hard.

I think some people figured out it's about as hard to quit as crack.

I've known people who have stopped using multiple hard core addictive drugs that can't stop smoking.

 

It's depressing really. I don't blame anyone but the companies. It's all about tax money though. I know some people that can't even afford cigarettes.

 

I can't stand girls who smoke - they can be extra beautiful and smart - if they smoke I can't stand them

 

I’ve heard that some people like the smell of cigarettes... LOL

 

Smoking gives me a headache >.< So I don't like it.

 

Why do people bother if others smoke???

I mean "why do you smoke" is not a perfect question to be asked.
people smoke because it's their wish.

BTW, i don't smoke

 

I have tried smoking, but it just isn't my thing. My hand smells like crap afther and I have a bad taste in my mouth for a long time and they cost a lot. So yea, not my cup of tea.

I'm so uncool :/

 

A lot of what seoindia said goes for me too. For me smoking is something to do with my hands while I'm busy concentrating. I chain smoke while coding. I chain smoke while talking on the phone (I also pace while I'm on the phone). I chain smoke while I'm driving. I chain smoke while I'm doing pretty much anything that requires my attention while requiring little to no action from my body. I also shake both knees while sitting at my desk. I don't sit still well.

However, I am quitting this Friday. I have been doing my best to cut back, and I am proud to say that I am under a pack a day. On Friday I will be going on the patch. That way I can develop new psychological habits for my hands while not having to deal with the nicotine withdrawl at the same time. Once I'm comfortable with the feeling of not having a cigarette in my hand, then I'll tackle my nicotine addiction.

By the way, if any of you live in Minnesota, you should know that www.QuitNet.com is a good program for you. It is paid for by the recent massive tax hike on tobacco products, and they will send you the gum, lozenges, or the patch free of charge. Other states may do the same, but I'm not aware of which ones.

 

because its addictive, and very hard to quit. I have such a routine, It almost scares me to think about what I would do if I did'nt smoke!

 

thats the reason why I use to smoke, when I smoked, my coworker and I would get closer. It be like oh its break time lets all (about 7 of us) go for a smoke, and when we smoke we would talk to each for the whole 30 minutes and have fun. But now that none of us smoke we don't gather anymore. We each do our own thing on our break.
