Wrong. You are breathing in your own second-hand smoke and, though somewhat less-efficiently, are still getting more than enough nicotine into your blood stream to become addicted.And as far as cancer goes, studies clearly show that second-hand smokers (this would be you as the non-inhaler as well as those around you) have shown higher rates of cancers then non-smokers.Heres a test you can take: Dont smoke a cigarette for a full day. If you can do this, then you are a non-smoker and should stay that way while you still have the choice. If the cravings are too bad and you cannot stop yourself from lighting up, then you are an addicted smoker whether you inhale or not and should quit.
