So I have my Volt E Cig and I love vaping totally satisfied and I don't even want analogs. But I do miss my smoking time, sitting outside for 10 minutes or so alone with my thoughts, I tried taking the e cig outside but since I puff on it frequently I typically don't feel the need to use it so I end up sitting outside doing nothing and I get bored. Did anyone else miss their smoke breaks more than their actual cigarettes?
I miss my cigarette time...

Yeah I have to agree with this one, my favourite times of the day where in the morning outside on the veranda with my cuppa and my smoke. and of an evening after rushing home from work to cook dinner and feed the crew I would rejoin my veranda in peace with a glass of wine and smoke. *sigh*
I miss my cigarette breaks at work where I would go outside for 5 or so minutes...often with another smoker and get away from the restaurant. My boss is good at giving me my "fake smoke" breaks if I want though but I often don't take them.
Of course, the trade off is that I don't have to wait until we slow down or have to go outside in inclement weather and can get my fix anytime I want (as long as it's out of customer site...or unless they ask to see me demo my ego lol).

Well it depends.. It's 12F out side right now... and no! I do not miss my smoke times! 
I still go outside with my buddy at work cause until Jan. 1 she is still smoking analogs and if the weather is nice I will go outside. Cause we are stuck in a basement of a mall at work and I like to see daylight and get fresh air. But if it's nasty I stay inside and stealth vape cause I work for a heathcare company and they don't want me vaping in the office and I get the "Look"if my boss sees me walking around the mall vaping. At least I have a choice now that I vape and don't smoke!
I miss going outside. That is probably why I crave the occasional analog. I keep meaning to go out and vape and catch a little sun but since I don't have to I haven't been taking the time to do it.
When I first started I did too. But I did get over that. It took some time to get adjusted...
But it sure is gonna be nice to not have to sit outside in the freezing cold this winter lol

Lower your nic and go outside!
That's what I started doing when I first switched over a year ago. Within 2wks I could smell the trees and the earth again like before I smoked. It made being outside even more enjoyable.

I think my dog misses it more than I do. Now that I have no reason to go outside he has to go out there by himself because I have no desire to freeze my tushy off out there. LOL

When I first started vaping, I would go outside on my breaks with my smoker friends, but after a while I couldn't stand the smell of their smoke anymore. Now I don't vape at work at all. Oh no, I am becoming what I always hated - the dreaded ex-smoker!!! 
Im lucky....my coworker and friend that turned me on to vaping (he just started with the V2's and I tried it and was sold).... so we now go out every 2 hours or so for "Vape" breaks
I am not missing smoking, I craved the bad hit of a cigarette a few times, even had one before going to bed a few nights. From my last pack, which I didn't really think was going to be my last. I guess it was not the nicotine, but the rest of the chemicals which makes for the pleasure of smoking, enjoyed the hit but didn't like the taste.
But I do miss going outside for a smoke. I like fresh air and having a chat with a friend or just take a break from what I am doing and going for a vape. So, I go out anyway, perhaps less often and for longer. Also, it helps containing vaping a bit I can easily spend 8 hours doing things and taking a puff every few minutes, I realized, and end up appreciating much less the flavour (not the vapour though, the vapour is just great .

You hit the nail on the head!
I found that it helps to have a good tobacco flavor to vape.My morning coffee is the hardest time for me.

At work I still go out and hang with the smokers. I like getting out and I would miss the conversation. Smokers talk about way more interesting things.
I vape exactly the way I smoked, though. No constant vaping for me.
I still take my smoke breaks, but with a ecig.. I don't hit through the work day tho, just on my breaks..
I used to read during my smoke breaks. I find that I read a LOT less now. I used to average ~100 pages a day, I'm down to ~20 pages. I need to find a way to recover my reading time.
What's different? Are you just not going outside with a book?
