Oh there are quite a few who don't plan to quit the great thing about ECF is there is no rule so there's really no exception
I have been vaping about 8 months. I'm still off the analogs, and that is a huge win for me as I feel much healthier since the first week that I quit smoking. I used to wake up coughing horribly and had noticeable breathing issues. I don't ever see myself going back to smoking as I don't want to feel that way ever again. The only side effect of vaping I've noticed, is that it tends to dehydrate me and I have to keep something to drink nearby. It's a small price to pay though as the bottom line is that I'm still addicted to nicotine. I doubt that I will stop vaping anytime soon.
Coming up on 18 months analog free and have no intention of quitting vaping. I enjoy it way too much, more than analogs and I very much enjoyed those. Plus it keeps some people from being choked to death..........
Interesting question..... If you would have asked me 6 mo ago I would have said NO WAY. Initially my concern was the tar and its effects on my lungs. After I quit smoking and started vaping that improved dramatically. Then came the concern about the amount of nicotine I was consuming so I sucessfully reduced, and am still reducing it from 18mg 6 mo. ago to 5-6mg currently. I hope to be at 1-0mg by X-Mas. Then I think the only thing that would get me to quit would be that they have found that flavors or VG will kill you. Don't envision that happening though..................
The idea is to also stop vaping (at list until we know what it really does!). I found quiet bad to stop an addiction and start a new one.
The fact is, we can not judge if it is safe or not until someone do a long clinical trial. To be on the safe side, it would be better to just inhale Glycerine with nicotine, because they are two well known chemicals.

If you aren't worried about the effects of nicotine on your body, there's not much left to worry about. Propylene Glycol vapor is a known germicidal air sanitizer. Some people may vape more than I do, but I don't think I've ever used more than a teaspoonful (5ml) in a day--compare that to the gallons of the very same ingredients used during stage productions and haunted houses. I simply cannot imagine any way that adding less than a teaspoon of vaporized e-liquid (made of common household ingredients, most of which are generally regarded as 'safe' by the FDA) to the air I breathe could possibly be any more harmful than using too much hand sanitizer or washing with caffeinated soap.
Yanno...the antis get so upset about e-cigarettes, one must wonder if there is something in the air they WANT us to breathe that the PG is blocking? Did somebody invent a brain control germ and kept it secret? Time to keep an eye out for zombies?

Hard to tell, but it's only been five days for me.
I'm addicted to everything - it doesn't matter what it is, if it's bad for you I'm hooked on it. I think the only addiction I didn't receive is gambling - I must have been in the restroom when they were passing that one out. I've worked a 12-step program for going on 23 years now.
Too early to tell whether I'll quit vaping at some point - right now the focus is on giving up analogs and trust me, I'm generally not bright enough to keep more than one ball in the air at a time

I tend to vape a little less than I used to smoke, and am at only 5mg nicotine, I dont want to make it a habit but do intend to keep it as a passtime
I don't plan on quitting any time soon, I like it too much. I may give it up someday though.
I've been vaping for 5 months now and enjoying every minute. I'm not planning on giving it up anytime soon.
I never wanted to quit smoking but I did, all of a sudden.
For now I don't want to quit vaping but... who knows. Never say never.

I know what you mean. I have an addictive personality. I just celebrated 10 years sober on July 17 and one month analog free on July 17. For the first time,.....I'm not addicted to anything bad for me. I am so grateful to my GoGo and looking forward to getting my Reo Grand in a couple of days. I'm just enjoying being completely "clean and sober".
