I smoked cigs from when I was 16 to around 21. I started because I liked the menthol feeling while I was on ecstacy.
I recently started smoking again. The name of the game is addiction substitution.

I'm trying not to start...all my friends do. I smoke one on occasion. But lately I've noticed my desire to smoke has greatly increased, like when I see somebody in a movie smoking. But the cons are just too big so become a real smoker.

Had my first one around 8 or 9.
Older siblings making me try, lol.
I liked it, but refrained, till i was around 15 when i smoked weed, and drank for a bit.
Started with black and milds because i liked the smell.
Moved to djarums, reds, wides, 27's, camel full flavor, ect.
Now its whats cheapest, which lately is rolling tobbacy.
A pouch lasts a week easy. Used to last a few days.
Im probably not going to fully quit, just keep it social, i like the act of smoking too much.

i started smoking for the hell of it, always after sesh and what not, then i stoped for a coulple months when i was 16, then i realized asking a woman for a smoke is a decent opener, you can usally get the convo flowing after that.
and being 16 i wasn't gonna pass up chances to get pussy.
and it just went from there

NastyDHL said: To anybody here who remembers when they starting smoking cigarettes, can you also remember why you tried it in the first place?
I remember sitting in the cul-de-sac at my buddy's house when I was about 15. I was with two of my friends and they signaled for me to follow them down this really short, steep path behind over the side of the road behind these bushes. I had been around friends smoking cigarettes before, and I knew they were bad, but looking back on it, smoking em did make you look like you didn't give a fuck and that was the coolest thing back in the day.
Anyway, they always offered me one and I decided. Took a few drags and DAMN, I couldn't even walk I was so fucking light headed. It was great, I remember telling them to wait up and then making them stop so I could sit down. It was like being high on weed except not as giggling and physically, way more fun.
Looking back on it, I think the reasons I started smoking cigarettes was A) it put off the image of someone who doesn't care (how ironic that I cared about looking like that), B) my friends did it and I felt like joining in with them whenever they took their breaks, C) it made my head feel awesome.
So what made all of yous give one a puff for the first time?
to look cool of course

I started smoking because it was an awesome thing to do when you are rolling on ecstasy. Now i smoke maybe 1-2 cigarettes a day, sometimes i dont smoke any. I smoke them mainly when i have no weed, or if i am just bored or if i am messed up (drunk, rolling, tripping).
I still prefer cigars over cigarettes though, and i would rather roll my own cigarettes or smoke pipe tobacco than buy a pack.

first cigarette I ever smoked was back in fifth grade (probably about 11 or so at the time)
me and my friend were hanging out at the park after school one day, and there was a younger couple (probably late teens or so) who were hanging out ona park bench with their infant child, and were just then lighting up...that's when my friend turns to me and asks if I wanted to see if they'd let us each take a drag
"sure...why not"
so he asks, and the guy (who I'm sure knew this would be our first attempt) just kinda smirks a little and passes it on...my friend takes a drag / hacks out a lung / and then passes it to me (eyes awater an everything) while I then take a quick puff of my own / heave my chest just ever so slightly (holding in my own cough on that one) and then proceed to hand it back to the dude
"nah...you two nigger-lipped that shit - I'll grab another one"
so I go to hand it back to my friend, who shudders a little, and then slyly tries to play it off like "nah...I'm cool" so I figured 'fuck it - I ain't about to let this thing goto waste' (me being the jewish whore that I am) so I let out a deep breath, took a real fucken drag this time, held that bad boy in until my lungs collapsed, and then...then...then it went straight to my head
needless to say - I've been a fiend ever since

I smoke weed daily, and I used to smoke cigars occasionally (no inhalation). I'm proud to say that to this day, I have never even taken a single drag off of a cigarette...and I probably never will. Why? I have absolutely no desire to. Nothing about them appeals to me whatsoever.

Xtc + clubbing is why I started smoking. First time on E at the club my friends were bumming me Kools all night long. It was like like inhaling a tiny piece of heaven. This was almost 2 years ago, I'm now trying to quit and have gotten down to 1-2 cigs a day. I'll probly be able to stop at the end of this pack.
