>>She tried it longer after college. She never tried it before then (and I believe her). I've never tried it. Most people don't believe me when I say that, but I truly have never tried it. I'm sure I've been exposed to the smoke, having gone to many rock concerts, but never tried it. I don't like the act of smoking, period.

>I was a chain smoker (tobacco this time) for many years. Gave it up over 20 years ago, and oddly found it incredibly easy. I actually tried to give it up before that and found it very difficult. I couldn't drink a coffee or have a drink in a bar because I wasn't smoking a cigarette.

>Then one day long after having fallen off the wagon and having become a chain smoker again, and I don't know any other way to say it, I found I was a non-smoker. I was sitting one evening reading in my rec room and I went to light a cig - didn't really feel like it, so I put it down. Couple of minutes later, I went to light it again, and again found I really didn't want it, so I put it down again figuring, "I'll have it in a few minutes". The fact is, I never lit that cigarette and truly didn't want it or even care about it. I basically went from being a chain smoker to being a non-smoker in a matter of minutes. I can't explain it, and I don't bother to try. All I know is I never looked back. Never thought about having a cigarette again - even with coffee or in a bar.

Good for you. They say tobacco is one of the hardest addictions to break.
