There is nothing good about it, only that you get addicted. |

I think a lot of is a combination of peer pressure, addiction, and the fact the image of smoking is glorified in pop culture a lot--like it's the "cool" thing to do. And, from what I've heard, smoking can help you lose weight because apparently it helps keep down your appetite so you eat less? Or those girls who I heard that from are completely misinformed, which is always a possibility. I don't smoke, and I couldn't if I wanted to. I already have lung problems without the help of nicotine. |

Some people do think it is cool, but think about the 40 year olds who smoke, do they still think about being "cool"? |

Durama that's where addiction comes in, they started because of peer pressure and it was cool then too... it's harder to stop then just saying oh, I won't smoke anymore.. Like, every time I see alcohol all I want to do is pop it open and drink it but I try my best not to :D. Some people have more will power then others and if you've smoked for years... it's even harder.

No, that it NOT the reason. Grown people say it because it gives them an answer, anyone who smokes because they think it looks cool is a loser, because that's stupid. There is no one that I know that says Oh wow smoking looks "cool" let me try it, simply because that's a stupid and rare thing to think, or say. It is NOT why people smoke. I don't smoke and never have smoked a nasty cigarette in my life. |

I have asthma, so if I smoked I'd die =D I don't see why people smoke either, but I think I sort of have an answer: The Nicotine in cigarettes is so addicting, that even if you don't like the taste, you're so addicted to it you just have to have more and more and more. Regardless of it tasting bad. It acts like and is essentially a drug. You're just addicted to it and find it almost impossible to stop =/ |

People smoke to relax, relief stress and it is also a social thing. After people figure out "hey why am I doing this?" it's already to late and they're addicted. But yeah I think it's pretty nasty and I try to avoid people who smoke regularly. |

Coming from an ex-smoker, you're right. Maybe not about everyone but you're right about the majority. Nicotine sucks; you get addicted to it too easily. |

Hence why I said "apparently". I don't think it looks cool, and like you, no one I know who smokes does it because they think it's cool. Most, if not all, were forced into it by their friends and they're already at the stage where their health is being severely affected...many are trying to give up. The others just started to fit in - they wanted to get involved with a bunch of 'cool' kids and the only way they could do it was by taking up smoking. All of them regret it now. |

True that's the reason I do wet snuff first time i tried it, I got a nicotine shock, which felt like a high so I kept on using it and the high went away after like a month, and then I tried to quit but I was addicted
