I always wear my seatbelt and will not start the car until everyone in it has their seat belt on (amazingly, only girls seem to not want to wear them, all my lad mates have no problem with it).
Indeed, I am so used to wearing my seatbelt, that when I was moving the car about 5 metres the other day (moving towards a mates car to give him a jump start) I felt really weird and "naked" without the seatbelt on, it was actually a horrible feeling!!!
At the end of the day, the seatbelt is the difference between life and death for a LOT of people every single day! It may rub and be annoying when you first start wearing them, but it will be a lot better then ending up with permenant brain damage or even dying as a result of not wearing it!!!!

we had a talk from the emergency services when i was at college they called it "drive survive" believe me if you didnt wear a seatbelt and you attended it you WOULD come out and have a different feeling about wearing a seatbelt and probilbly would wear it. some of the storys (all true by the way) were horrific. did you know if you dont wear your seatbelt and you crash you could fly through the sunroof, the side windows the back windows?? one incident they told us about was a crash involving 2 young lads that were not wearing there seat belts and when they crashed the force of the impact knocked them both out of there seats and they both banged there heads together so hard that they were both joined at the head. there were loads of other stories and videos all of them made me feel sick. i could rant all day about it but at the end of the day wearing your seat belt WILL save your life

I'm the same, feel "naked" without it lol. no problems with lads either, just the ladies...never move unless evry1 has all theirs on too.
