You guys are right I have never smoked. But I know lots of people who have casually smoked at bars and what not, or they only smoke while fishing or something like that.

What makes it so they can smoke once or twice and not be addicted? My point is not that it's easy to quit if you only have willpower and have been smoking for 20 years, but that someone who has NOT smoked for 20 years could not become addicted if they just used a little willpower.

I am not trying to offend any smokers, because I have smokers in my family who can't quit either. I know it's not just willpower.

Plus, there are other things a lot of people are addicted to: alcoholic drinks, harder drugs, and even good old sugar... and it's hard to stop once you get started.
