Do I have to go back outside?

[CAN BurnOut]

My wife has a problem with scented candles and spray air fresheners and such.
Ever since I started to vape its been great, I can do it in the house again and while watching a movie, awesome. Now she thinks the flavouring is irritating her sinuses like the above mentioned. I use raspberry flavouring. I'm hoping it's not and it's something else.
What do you think? Could this be possible? I really don't want to go back outside again.

 

[bosshoss]

Ive had people say it bothers their nose. I believe i read somewhere that PV can irritate the sinuses.

Yeah, it's possible. It's very likely that certain flavors will bother her and others won't. Maybe you can find a few that don't bother her for inside the house and save the raspberry for outside.

Good luck!

My wife is hyper sensitive to smell right now she quit smoking and is pregnant her nose is working serious overtime. If I blow vape away from her it is ok if I blow towards her not so nice. I can't say for sure with your wife or your vapes I don't really vape any thing other than tobacco sometimes with vanilla in it so maybe that makes a difference icant say for sure. Good luck hope you can find a solution.

You could try some unflavored juice to see if that takes care of the problem.

Tell her perhaps you should just go back to smoking cigarettes and see what she says

Kent, you're lookin' to get me vapin' not only outside but in the doghouse as well. LOL

Well, Kent IS known for giving great advice. No harm in giving it a try. Doghouses are outside, and that sounds like where you might end up vaping anyway, right?

It's possible there's a placebo-like effect going on here. But—bottom line—whether her distress is real or imagined, there's the issue of staying married to consider.

Better check with the dog, he might not like you vaping in there

 

[bmwjen]

difficult to say...........my husband can't smell any of my juices. However, my mom KNOWS when i'm vaping the incredibly fabulous vanilla custard. So, depending on the juice flavor and the person's sensitivity would most likely be the answer to your question.

My wife (a non smoker) hasn't had any problems with me occasionally vaping in the house.... that is until I vaped 555 in the house. She didn't like the smell at all and gave me the look of disapproval. Back to spending more time in the garage for me....

That's what I do, in fact I vape DIY unflavored all the time (DIY mixing PG/VG and diluting to my nic preference). It is actually a pleasant taste,and the VG adds a touch of 'sweetness' to it.

I know my wife can't stand some of the flavors I vape when I do vape flavored, my coworker does on some as well, but no issues when I do flavorless.

Try it out, it might make everyone happy, and you might find that you enjoy it ... (prolongs the life of the atty as well)

I had a similar problem when vaping some strong sweet flavors near my husband. The tobacco and vanillas and coffeeish ones not so much. Using VG made the vapor so thick and it seemed to gravitate toward his chair. I have solved this by using a small fan to disperse the vapor when he is home and if the room is too cool, I just turn the small desk fan away from both of us and it "sucks" the vapor in the opposite direction. It does not seem to bother him once dispersed a little, just the huge heavy clouds of vapor that seemed to settle around him.

Good luck with a solution in your situation, I am sure you will find one !

Welcome to ECF neighbour !! Be sure to visit with us in the Canadian Members sub-forum !

Being from your "zone", it could very well be just the time of year (and us still having the house closed up).

I'm finding soooo many people I run in to lately with colds, allergies, flues, etc etc.... 'tis the season afterall, but no worries..... the heat is just around the corner and we'll soon be biotching about something else like damn its hot and humid, lol

Off topic: Any idea when Marlborrow Forest's trails are open for ATV'ing ?? Gawd I miss the mud !!

VapeOn,

It my be the PV but this time of year it too could be allergies affecting her sinuses. I never feel the pollen but this year being particularly high I felt just opening the windows of the house. Not saying it's not the vapor. Just saying pollen has is ways or finding noses (on clothing and such) not usually affected.

 

[dormouse]

Try vanillas? Vanillas don't bother my fiance as much as some smells. He lets me vape vanilla in his car though once he said it smelled like a wet dog haha.

I'm partial to the K/P trail myself. Easier for my KLR to stay upright. And thanks for the welcome.

Just trying to give her some 'perspective' Lol.

I can smell my fruity vapes. The "Tahiti Breeze" I buy from my favorite vender tastes pretty good, but smells just like car air freshener mixed with sunblock after I'm done and I have to let the room / car air out a bit. It very well may be bothering her.

I like the unflavored idea, or maybe DIY some that are only slightly flavored and see if that helps.
