Addiction - Does anyone else find quitting too easy?

[GForce]

I feel like I'm the only person on the world who is the complete opposite to the norm when it comes to tobacco. My philosophy (which is shared by some) is that if I'm going to smoke a cigarette, I'm going to smoke a good cigarette. I'll only smoke Turkish Golds, other expensive brands, and when I'm fortunate enough, some regular brands from abroad because they're so much better than the crap they sell here. I figure if I'm going to knowingly do something unhealthy, I should enjoy it as much as possible, because that is what the trade-off is. The thing is, I've been smoking cigarettes on and off for 3 years now and I really have never gotten addicted to them. When I'm on a smoking "phase" I would smoke a pack a day (or more) but if I had to spend a day not smoking for some reason it would barely phase me. The only type of addiction I ever developed was psychological in the sense that smoking is a great way to kill time and take breaks from studying/work. So the thing that kept me smoking during those periods was the fact that a cigarette was a better alternative to doing nothing. I guess the most glaring example of all of this is the fact that I smoked heavily (at least a pack a day) last year from May-August while I was working in Manhattan. When I came back to school in September I don't know if it was the change in setting or what but I suddenly (and like in the past) completely lost my desire to smoke a cigarette. This has continued through this summer, so almost an entire year with maybe a pack or two of cigarettes smoked from times I was drunk or just outside BBQing or something. I didn't have to break any habit or have any withdrawal symptoms. In fact, if I feel like smoking, and only have cigarettes, I'd rather not smoke a cigarette normally than smoke one. It isn't that I find them suddenly disgusting or anything, but it is like somehow my mind has made itself up that there are no benefits to smoking that make it worth it, and I don't particularly like smelling like cigarettes, especially if I was outside smoking and come inside into a stuffy room. I'll be happy to enjoy a smoke after a glass of scotch or something, but like many times in the past 3 years, my "addiction" was broken by absolute apathy rather than self-motivation or a necessity to quit. Is it possible to be immune to the physical withdrawal symptoms of cigarettes or do I just have something psychologically stronger than a cigarette addiction? It just doesn't make any sense to me. It isn't like I want to be addicted, but I feel like I've cheated getting addicted so many times that, under normal circumstances, I'd otherwise be a heavy, heavy smoker.

P.S. I hope no one takes offense in the title of this thread. I don't mean to insult people who have legitimate addictions to tobacco and want to quit.
