Definitely probably spend more time looking ,thinking and planning my cigar smoking than actually smoking them but that's the point I do end up smoking them and that's the end result of all my pondering and tinkering
Your telling me you don`t spend as much time looking thru you collection as you do smoking it?

Stage 3. Consummation
At the end of last summer, and the bottom of the humidor gift, I decided that cigars would begin making more than casual appearances in my relaxation. I began to develop a sense of what I generally liked, maduro wrappers and medium-full bodied complex long-fill cigars. I made my first big purchase to reload my humidor, and cigars became a part of my life. I've since made additional purchases to keep my humidor stocked. Since summer, I have smoked cigars about 2-5 times per week, but have often gone 1-3 weeks at a time without partaking of this pleasure. Thus far, my addiction seems to be for cigars, rather than nicotine, because I can go for days without experience any forms of craving or withdrawal. Quite the opposite, when I've "overdone it", my desire for cigars has been sated for awhile and I take a break. This has surprised me, because I was really concerned about becoming dependent upon nicotene.
When it was cigarettes it was addiction. Defiantly.
Cigars its obsession and its as much they buying, reading and talking about them.
Possibly slightly more obsessed with the reading and buying but get more enjoyment out of the smoking
I have no problem talking about addiction as a expert. My degree is in heroin addiction and I didn't gain it from a university. I am qualified to talk on the subject and I don't think many here are addicted to buying cigars, it just doesn't make much sense, if one becomes addicted to something all else gets left by the wayside. That being the case we would all be homeless with tons of cigars. I just don't see it, I used to use my money for gear and get food and other necessities where I could and that's addiction. I REALLY don't mind admitting an addiction but I definitely don't have any cigar related addiction and have no plans to allow any whether it be consuming or buying cigars. I think it's the wrong word for what you are explaining. Obsession yes addiction I don't think so. It's like saying "I love Homeland" or "I love bacon" no you don't, you like it a lot.
