Do you feel that smoking is something you're expected to like?

Everyone that smokes seem to like it. They hate the fact that they like it, but they still like it. I guess you're not expected to like it, but once you start it's expected that you will like it and keep smoking.

I might be wrong in assuming people keep smoking because they like it. Maybe they just don't hate it and become addicted.

It's weird isn't it? People both like it and hate it I think. I work really close to a bunch of ESL schools. When I step out for lunch there are inevitably 30 to 40 kids out in the alleys chain smoking away. What is it with youth and cigarettes? It's the perfect social combination.
