Bottom line is youre an adult.You dont need anyone elses approval to vape.Sounds kind of harsh but part of truly loving someone is accepting their strength and what you might perceive as their weaknesses as well and having the tact to not say anything about it. Showing honest concern is one thing, constantly harping about it is quite another.
Ive never truly given a rats ... what others think about what I do.I'm ME and youre YOU and thats that.Ive never tried to change anyone Im in a relationship with as I dont consider that very healthy.People are going to do exactly what they want to do regardless of anyone elses input on the matter anyways. Sorry for such a strong reply but anything else sounds a bit controlling to me and Im a very independent person.

Heck, mine got mad at me for dipping, and told me to go back to smoking. She doesn't approve of vaping now, either. So I figure I'm going to be in the dog house as long as I continue to use nicotine, so I don;t worry about it anymore 
My ex was extremely negative about my using an e-cig to the point where I stopped. Frankly, I went back on the analogues just to upset him! He considered the steam to be nasty and evil and he didn't want to breathe it in. If I wanted to use it, I had to go outside- just like with a real cigarette. I could use some extremely foul language about the man but I shall restrain myself...although I will point out that this was a man who claimed that oxygen gives you cancer...
Me:'so wait, does that mean BREATHING gives you cancer?!'
Him:'well...everything in moderation!'
It's been a long time coming but I'm finally back on my e-cig on a part-time basis (cutting down gradually as I did last time) and I couldn't be happier! Those who don't approve don't have to be part of my life. My family love that I use an e-cig and actively encourage me to use it rather than smoke analogues, it was just that pesky ex... 'ex' being the operative word!

My wife has been on the e-cig for a probably around a month now and has been done with tobacco for around 2 months.
She is the one that actually got me to try this out and its worked pretty good so far.
IMO both vaping and tobacco freak me the hell out LOL.
I'm afraid both will give me some sudden heart attack or stroke.....guess I'm just paranoid.

You are right in a way but when I started vaping all my wife did was complain about it and the time I spent researching it and then she proceeded to make fun of me about it, but as I stated her friend showed interest in vaping so I helped her get started when my wife saw that not only was I vaping but now her bestie was too, she decided to give it a shot. Was it shady on my part? Maybe, but she is now vaping and no longer nagging at me, except to find her a juice she likes which is a challenging task in itself. Was it controlling on either of our parts? No, just one of those marital squabbles that occurs from time to time.

Oh I do love this thread Nice to know I am not the only one! After a little over two months my husband has stopped complaining. Last complaint was about 3 weeks ago when he could see the vapor. "I can see the vapor it's not going away! Look!". It all stopped when he finally told me he couldn't stand to chew anymore because his mouth was damaged.

Wife just gave me crap tonight because I was 'using it too much' as I tried out 2 new flavors. She keeps nagging me and then says "I just want you to be healthy" afterwards when I get annoyed. Looks like we're going to have another talk about the fact that I have dropped cigs, dropped my nic level from 18-12, and avoided nearly 1000 cigarettes in just a month and a half..... 
wow, imo if someone loved you enough to kiss your stinky mouth they can kiss a clean mouth geesh! luckily me and my old man quit together, he still sneaks a ciggy like once a week, he feels awful, but honestly I love him enough to where i only roll my eyes and jokeningly tell him he stinks. the only people that give me guff are coworkers, but pfft forget them, they are mostly smokers, so their say means nil to me
Sorry to hear that she has made you liable for finding a satisfactory juice to suite her tastes. That's a hard and thankless job.
My wife never smoked, but has been most supportive of my vaping. Just tonight we made a new batch of e-liquid together. When I first switched to vaping she was a bit unsure, but now that the walls of our rooms don't yellow anymore, she has made the connections that my lungs benefit similarly. Also the monthly cash savings are enough that the loss of her part time job barely affects the household budget.
My wife smelled better, tasted better and looked better after she stopped smoking and started with e-cig. Unfortunately the e-cig is broken and we haven't been able to get a replacement, so she's back to the foul smelling cigarettes

The argument that there is not enough long term research to prove that <insert_disputed_item> is safe is disingenuous. Safe until proven dangerous is my adage -- or innocent until proven guilty. The burden of proof is on egoaddict's spouse. It should prove a challenge.
Your girlfriend is very caring, but not very knowledgeable. Her response is typical of ignorant, emotional women. (See: "Won't somebody PLEASE think of the children!). Using her logic, an asthma inhaler (which contains PG) should be used outside so as not to endanger the poor cat. Even if PG was harmful, the dispersion in air would make it virtually undetectable event by scientific instruments within seconds.

Tell her that her care is misplaced as there is nothing proven unsafe about vaping. My wife does the same annoying thing, but I know it's only because she cares for my health. It's kind of funny really, how a wife can get used a man to smoking for years, then reverse herself exactly when a man tries to improve himself with vaping. Is it possible that the same psychosomatic effect of seeing perceived "smoke" that make us enjoy vaping (as opposed to the 'patch') can also trigger worry in our wives?
