Do You Smoke Cigarettes if so where did it start?

[Gabriella2005]

I do grew up around friends to blend in.

[MisterWack]

I would never because I love my teeth, my lungs, and my friend’s & family’s lungs too.

I’ve seen what kind of diseases / problems / issues that arise from smoking since I had an associate that passed away due to being a heavy smoker. Tragic.

[Finchie40]

I started in high school after a good friend of mine passed away at a young age. I have quit a few times through the years but it seems to keep coming back to me , it’s an addiction that’s hard to kick completely. So I just accept it for what it is.

[DryGermanGuy]

Late in high school, but I never smoked that much. I quit regular smoking after four or five years and only use it now to stay awake if I have to finish something urgent for work or on long distance drives.

I'm guessing you're European if you're smoking cigs at 18?

I don't, never have not even drunk. It's common in the US but nothing like Europe

[Gabriella2005]

At 16.

[bobby_bush_eater]

@gabriella2005 in the US kids vape and smoke weed at 16 but rarely cigarettes, at least where I live

Tried them a few times but prefer cigars

I was introduced to them by my friend in exotic rentals because he smoked them and bought my first proper cigar when I turned 19; the same one he smoked, the Cohiba Siglo 2

I tried it in high school and then again when I was in college. i did it to stay awake during finals or on all night car rides. I don't think it reallt helped keep me awake I never really liked it.

[Emmytexrex]

I did grow with friends that smokes all types of cigarettes or weed and take drugs but I didn't try it for one day it's all about choice they give me that respect because they say it is very hard for someone not to

[OfMiceandMen]

I don't smoke cigarettes, but like the occasional cigar.

[Account]

I roll tobacco. I started when I was 26. It wasn't a good time period and the addiction remained.

[Yannae]

Never have, never will. Passively because I was around a smoker is the closest.

[RedInnocent69]

First at 6 or 7. But never really smoked cigarettes. Rarely when drinking or out with smokers, or the occasional cigar or water pipe.

[Anonymous]

Nope. Which I've been told is unusual since I grew up in a house where both my parents smoked.

[woahhh152]

The smell of cigarette makes it hard for me to breathe and makes me cough so never tried smoking

[Billlewis]

No, but I did smoke for many years.

[MysticDevice]

Never got into it. They're quite disgusting.

[TonyMetal___86]

Never, i even hate it smell!

[MasterKS]

mostly to try in college days early.
