Oftentimes it is a combination of of multiple triggers -- oral fixations, physical addictions, social pressure, nervousness, etc. -- that make you want to smoke a cigarette.

Actually, you can classify every trigger into two categories -- the desire for pleasure or the desire to avoid pain. A physical addiction can be painful if it is not met. To avoid that pain, you smoke. Lighting up a cigarette after eating a tasty meal is pleasurable. In this case, you want to smoke because you derive a lot of good feelings from it.
