Is this a natural tendency for us once we find success with vaping? I have converted about five of my friends so far, how about you?
Do vapers have a tendency to try to convert smoking friends and relatives?

I try converting all the time... Successfully converted 3 friends. Still "preaching" to my brother about the benefits of this.
I did about 5 people,2 at work,one bus driver,one lady friend and my Mom,but from now on i wont go out of my way too convert,seems like too much work.
I only try to convert my significant other because her smoking makes it harder for me to not smoke. Plus her stinkies are becoming just that...stinky.
I've converted 1.. Lots of folks interested but the cost of starter kits is discouraging for most
I've converted 4 people, but only because THEY brought up my vaping and wanted to know more. I used that as the go-ahead to explain all the benefits.
I've converted 90% of the people that have asked me about my vape. About 7 guys at work, my girlfriend, Dad, and grandmother haha. They have all had great success with vaping, which does make me pretty happy cant lie.
I live in a free country, I'm a conservative and don't feel I need to impose my beliefs on anyone else. if they are interested and I'm in the mood, I'll talk with them about MY vaping. if not, I just say, it's an ecigarette and go on about my business.
Heck no; I remember people tryna bum smokes off me constantly, & that was when there were packs available on every street corner! Imagine dozens of people asking for 'just a ml' of juice all the time!
My brother is older than me and has my old device. I'm pretty sure he's using it but I don't think it's exclusive. His nicotine habit ranges from chew to cigarette and he is almost like a non smoker.
I have a young coworker who smokes cigars every month or two and loves my ego twist. Primarily, the youth has no interest in health and therefore is uninterested. I have one coworker that's my age but she has a reoccurring issue with compromise. It is universal and akin to insanity. She once claimed under employment without her hours getting cut because she didn't want to work more. As you can imagine, that was pretty funny to the businesses owner.

I'm not so sure if they are committing to it or not but I am atleast pushing them in the right direction. I would say maybe close to twenty people a week. Im manager at a vape kiosk. High traffic area. Within an Asian community. I love my job. So far we haven't had any success stories. But then again we have only been open three weeks. I love my job
I don't try to convert everyone but I do try to convert my friends and family. Vaping has been such an amazing thing for me that I am happy to share that with my friends and family. And anyone that approaches me about the subject. I won't go up and randomly start preaching to some smoker on the street but if they see me and have questions I am happy to give them the information I know.
I believe it is natural to try to convert friends and family members. Vaping is WONDERFUL thing and can save MILLIONS of lives. Why not try to save peoples lives. I've lost a friend and a family member to smoking. I sure wish it was available earlier in my 35 year smoking stint.
Not even an exclusive vaper yet, but I know as soon as I am will be trying to convert my partner, or making him smoke outside. Other than that not so bothered but will be telling any interested friends whatever they want to know, and hoping they take it further. Need to not be the only vaper on my social scene.
