I started smoking when I was 16. I'm 21 now. I started smoking because my boyfriend smoked and he kind of got me into it. I still remember the first cigarette I had...It was terrible. I got dizzy and just about passed out. I don't know what I kept doing it after that! LOL.
How about you guys?

Now I don't smoke . But a dacade ago I smoked . But that too was not habitual . In fact that was a period of unemployment and lonelyness for me. However , I had a good friend who is of course still my friend.We two used to have a evening walk around a park . The scene of pairs of lovers talking , cuddling each other were common . The scene made me feel more lonely . And that feeling made me have a puff.

I tried smoking when I was like 13-14 just cuz it was "cool" But even tho I thought I was I wasn't really inhaling. I didn't really "start" until I was about 21 - out drinking with friends I would have a cigg and from there it escalated. I'm now 25 and NEEDING to quit. But I'm having such a hard time doing so. I love the feeling of that first cigg in the morning.

I never smoke and i hate smoking. Smoking is really bad. It can cause lung cancer and lots of other desease not only to the smoker but also to the people near the smoker. Recently a report show that more than 75 % AIDS carrier are smoker. Even there are no prove showing that smoke can cause AIDS but i strongly believe that there are connection between smoking and AIDS. One more things is that smoking wasting a lot of mioney. For your own good or for your family, STOP SMOKING if you are a smoker.
