How many out there are addicted to the pipe in the true sense of the word. Like if you didn't have a pipe, you'd be feel anxious, jittery, etc...

If I could smoke inside I would definitely smoke a lot more. I always have my pipe with me though. If I didn't I would be wishing I did

I constantly trade off my time with the pipe.
If I have a spare hour in my evening I can make a decision. Smoke a pipe. Or seduce the wife.
The pipe wins if I'm unsuccessful of course. :puffy:

If I could smoke while I slept I would be a happy camper. As soon as I get up, I put on the coffee, take out the dogs and light up my pipe. I smoke all day and night and have a pipe in my mouth constantly. When I go out to do errands, my pipe is with me. Yeah I'd say I was addicted.

I would say i have a healthy love of my pipe. I am not physically addicted.I test myself now and again with a day or two off. I do however tend to have it poking out of my mush most of the time.

I usually only smoke once per day, but I find that it easily becomes habitual and I start to smoke two or three times... I generally give it up for a few days at that point, because I notice myself thinking about it.
I'm eager to avoid becoming dependent on the pipe, so taking a break every so often is a fair tradeoff. I went away for over a week at the beginning of August without my pipes, and it didn't affect me physically so I mustn't be 100% addicted.
Still, I keep coming back to it by choice! The other reason I take a break from smoking is when I don't enjoy the flavours like I should - it is very much a taste thing for me, and if that's not there, then it's just nicotine consumption and I'd rather do without.

I smoke a couple of times a week, and I find myself thinking about smoking when I'm not smoking. If that's addiction, color me addicted.

....now when they legalize marijuana, that's a different story.

:rofl: The only problem is you have to inhale that stuff into your lungs -yuck. When they legalize it I'll grow enough to bake it into my muffins to go with coffee and a tobacco pipe in the morning -yum :D
Not addicted. I love my pipes and tobacco but I can go days on end without without the jitters.

While I wouldn't say that I am necessarily addicted to my pipes, I would say that I am most definitely addicted to tobacco products. I can put down my pipe without concern - however before long I will find myself reaching for the humidore with a nostril full of snuff, a lip full of chaw (ok, not really - that's the one form of tobacco I've never taken to) and a cigarette dangling from my lip.
Much easier (and cheaper) to simply keep a loaded pipe within reach at all times.

If I could smoke inside I would smoke a lot more than I do. I currently smoke about 4-5 times a week but I do constantly think about pipes or tobacco.

I should clarify that I'm frequently thinking about pipes and tobacco, but moreso I try to discourage myself when I am constantly thinking "I should have a smoke" and find myself reaching for it more often that usual... With that said, I usually carry on until I find my tastebuds are getting a bit dull - a break usually works wonders and increases my appreciation for the smokes.
I've given it up for extended periods, particularly when the weather is terrible, but I always come back to the pipe because I rather enjoy it!
