First time Vaping in front of my Fiancee

[Dragline]

The story goes like this... we were in the car riding around, and she lights up an analog. I would have normally done the same, but instead I break out my KR-808 model. I take a few hits off of it before she even notices anything different.

She finally notices the blue led and looks over and says "What is that" I respond, "That... is an electronic cigarette" she says "Ok" then asks all about it. I give her the basic spill of info that I learned here using phrases like "healthier alternative" and "got to better for me than cigarettes" when I finish with the info she says "Thats really cool, you're taking this very seriously" (we have both previously agreed that we need to quit due to both financial and health reasons) I tell her that since ive been vaping, I dont really want a cigarette. She was really excited for me and supportive, and of course through the night as I continued to vape she would ask a question or two and was never anything but supportive with my decision.

If vaping continues to work out for me, and I am sure it will, I will soon be trying to get her switched over as well.

Just thought I would share this story

Surprise her with her own ecig...a sweetheart gift. This might get her to at least give it a try. A friend of mine who chews but has quit, gave his wife an ecig. At first she protested and told him she didn't want to quit smoking. But guess what, she did and now hits me up for juice.

Great story. Good move not trying to push it on her. Please do a follow-up if she does make the switch.


Congrats on making the switch yourself.

Great that she supports your decision to quit! I agree with the previous post... get her one she might like it more than you know! Wouldn't that be a Great Gift!

Good story. Welcome to ECF. Maybe you can get your fiance to browse the site with you at some time. The idea of gifting an e-cig is a great idea. Probably wouldn't be a great Valentine's Day gift (would be like giving her a chainsaw for her birthday), but as general gift could be a great idea (would also work out if she doesn't take to it so after some time you could just ...sorta like... start to use it as one of your backups . Good to see you here.

Valentines day is coming up. You can surprise her with a nice Pink Omega

That's a terrific story! Congratulations on your quit and best of luck showing your fiancee the way. You might want to consider some 555 from BwB also - not my favorite juice, but my wife really loves the fragrance.... just a thought!

In contrast, being the first in my very large extended family with numerous smokers, not so much support - I would hear people in the background saying '...e-cig...' and chuckling it up a bit -- but, after a month or so, and after I whipped it out in public areas where analogs were previously expressely forbidden (private areas, like in my car when it got really cold outside, as in the lower 50s) - they began to see the results - then, one by one the dominoes began falling.

Again, congrats and welcome to ECF!

Good luck with getting her to switch!
