That will come, Elizabeth. I'm afraid the "want" will be with you a long time.
Those moments when you really feel the "need" for a smoke - we can't expect them to go away.
For me, it was driving in traffic when I am in a hurry. Waiting thru 3 light changes to be able to cross an intersection. Having to stop at red lights every 3 blocks for 2 miles of city driving . . ! Getting trapped behind a city bus and having every car behind me pull into the left-hand lane to pass at every bus stop - one-at-a-time from the car farthest back right up to the idiot on my rear bumper!
These experiences never went away despite my bumpersticker which clearly states:
If God Had Intended Man to Smoke,
He Would Have Set Him on Fire!

So glad to see those guys. For so many years they were my second family. In the military you develop a bond that civilians can not fathom. Out of 20 sailors and 6 spouses there were only 3 smokers. I did drink too much wine but managed not to smoke.
