Sure sounds like you're addicted. Probably only mildly addicted so far at this point if you can still go a day or two without one, but definitely a bit addicted.
Have you started to find you get irritable and upset easily when you haven't had a cigarette all day? That's a fairly good indicator of whether you are already properly addicted, or whether you just really, really like cigarettes.
But whatever, don't hate yourself over it. I know you said you didn't want addiction, but still went on to smoke more and probably get addicted, but hey, many millions of smart, good people have done exactly the same thing. Fact is anyone with the least but of curiosity or imagination will probably try smoking a few times at least, and once a persons done that then it's fairly likely they'll get to really like it, and once a person gets to like it's fairly likely they'll get addicted, because inhaling tobacco smoke is both remarkably good and remarkably addictive. So it's nothing to beat yourself up over.
