Peer pressure leads to smoking when a non-smoker hangs out with smokers. The smokers sometimes make the non-smoker feel left out or uncool, so the non-smoker starts smoking. Of course, you can avoid that by selecting friends who are non-smokers. It could be also if you hear that somking relaxes you, so you try it once when your mad and you get addicted.
If your peers are pressuring you to smoke, the only options you have are to succumb to the pressure or just tell them that you are not going to smoke, whether it is cigarettes or marijuana. If they continue to pressure you, it might be time to make some new friends.
Remember that by succombing to the pressure, you may be on the road to a very unhealthy, smelly, and costly habit that once you develop it, it could take an immense amount of determination and will power to break. Remind yourself that you are being the "cool" one and stand firm. Succombing to peer pressure to smoke is not worth it in the long run. I know! I succombed.
