Because it's a drug that gives you a feeling. Some people enjoy the feeling that smoking gives them, the addiction slowly follows after.
The same works for just about any drug. I can assure you that heroin and crack addicts didn't suddenly decide they wanted to be addicted to those drugs. Curiosity gets the best of people sometimes.
How do you get that feeling without making a decision to do something really gross? Why did they choose to smoke that first gross death stick?
because i was 18, a freshman in college, and just got dumped. i was all down about it and a friend offered me one and i thought, fuck it, why not.
then i bummed another a few days later and so on. bought my own pack within a week.
