Can cigars cause you to start smoking cigarettes again?

    If you're a former smoker and you start buying cigars to smoke the odd time (maybe twice a week) can this cause you to want to go back on cigarettes again or not? Would they make it harder to stay off cigarettes lets say? :rolleyes:

    For me smoking was all about the habit.

    I imagine though the taste of a cigar may well be entirely different they are the same act, the same movements, the same sensation and the same joy perhaps?

    I can see it at the very least being a slippery slope.

    I wouldint roll a piece of paper and play with it im so scared to death i'd go back. I loved my smokes, i love not smoking more.

    I've not been tempted to go back on cigaretts but I am tempted to smoke more cigars on a more frequent basis. I try to keep to one a month but 3 cigar nights are occuring much more frequenty. :o

    Well then maybe going for the larger thicker cigars might be one way, but theres no real way to reduce the other similarities :(

    I (usually) only smoke once a month. Part of the pleasure of smoking a good cigar is the anticipation. :) I always take three cigars out with me on a smoking night. I used to bring two of them home again but lately I've noticed that I'm smoking them on the night.
