I started smoking when i was 14, i'm now 17. I don't
smoke much at all, like maybe 3 packs a year or less.
Its not a social thing, nor to try and look cool. I usually
smoke alone because i'm ashamed. I don't want people to
think i'm a smoker because i'm really not. At least, i don't
consider myself to be one. Do you?

Also.. i have these odd smoking patterns. Depending
on how i feel. For example. I had 5 today, but before today
i only had 1 two months ago in May. Before that i had 3
in March. Before that i smoked daily for a couple weeks.
Then i'll quit for months with no problem. I inhale, and i like it.
But i'm not addicted. Not by a long shot.

I smoke regular marlboro menthol's like most people.
So i don't really understand the whole nicotine
addiction thing. Why do they get addicted but not me?

Basically, because you haven't smoked enough for a long enough period at any one time. Be careful with it, though, since if you do start smoking more you may well become addicted.

Just a high tolerance for nicotine. Some people can smoke every once and a while because their bodies don't crave nicotine as much as others. Although smoking is one of the worst things you can do, at least you're not doing 3 packs a day. All the best
