Best answer:

Answer by yess!ca
nicotine addiction varies from person to person. some people have a genetic predisposition to be very sensitive to nicotine, in which case they get alot more form one cig than a regular person would, thus they smoke less and do not become addicted.

i read a book that included a study that was conducted on nicotine addiction which puts the ‘tipping point’ of cigarette addiction at most probable in those who smoke over 4 a day. after that point you are very likely to become hooked.
some people on the basis of a purely addictive personality will be hooked for life from the first one. some people will smoke casually 1 or 2 a day, or a few a week and never become addicted at all.
