There's something to be said about the social aspect of going outside and smoking. A shared shame does wonders for overcoming social barriers, and the nicotine takes the edge off. It gives you an excuse to leave a situation, to talk to people, to 'accidentally' run into someone on your way down to smoke. I've been smoking for two years now, and although I plan to quit in the near future, I've met a few people who would turn out to be good friends huddled around a corner trying to light a cigarette.
