Is it possible to become addicted to just about anything?

I suppose you get letters like this every year, but I made a long list of New Year's resolutions this year and in less than a week I've broken them all. There wasn't anything wrong with them, and they would have made me a better person, but why can't I keep them?

I've tried to befriend a young man I work with who seems lonely, and have even invited him to our home for dinner several times.
