I'm 24; I've been smoking on and off since I was about 11. I pretty much smoked a pack a day, sometimes more. I've quit a couple times, cold turkey, which generally lasted for about six months to a year until one day I would be around all my friends who were smoking and I'd decide to start smoking again.
I decided to try e-cigs because of my boyfriend. He is a nonsmoker and is constantly complaining about the smell and taste of the cigarettes. Even if I don't smoke for a day or two before I go see him, the tar and junk is still in my lungs and he can still notice it. So I wanted to try this alternative to smoking.
Three days ago I went to the local pipe shop and bought a Cig 2 o; after looking it up on this forum it's apparently the same thing as a kr808d something or other.. I was a bit skeptical, doubting that the experience of a vaporizer would compare to the experience of smoking a cigarette. But it's actually better in some ways. Less harsh, and I like not having to use a lighter or ashtray or having the risk of burning my house down. The menthol flavor that came with it kind of tastes like toothpaste so that's a bit weird. I ordered some other flavors, I hope they get here soon.
Anyway, so far I went for 2 and a half days without smoking a cigarette!! And I was able to use my vaporizer in a hotel, and a restaurant, and a mall with no problems, which was awesome. Plus my nonsmoking boyfriend who hates cigarettes and used to get super annoyed if I'd light up in his presence, even told me that he doesn't mind me using my vaporizer in his apartment! I was vaping in his bed last night and he didn't care! Sweet freedom! I think this thing pretty much saved my relationship. We've been together for about a year and a half and he's always saying how awesome I am and that I'm so sweet and pretty and better than any other girl ever, but that the smoking is kind of a deal-breaker for him. So I always kind of figured he'd break up with me when he has to move away for residency next year (he's in med school).. but now.. who knows? Maybe we get married and haz ten kids! Whatever happens with us it's not going to be a decision based on how much he hates my smoking. So that's pretty amazing.
Also.. this forum is awesome. I'm glad I found it. And the chat.. those people are pretty nice.
