Lurking?? How to find a home within all the forums and threads?

[AngelsBreath]

Stormy is our wonderful, amazing hostess and she just lets us be ourselves here. She's awesome!!!

 

[Monomach]

Amen to that

I've already made several great new friends since starting vaping, its sure better than standing outside in the UK rain.

[Stormy1960]

Came across this thread so hope Im not intruding. I feel like I am lurking everywhere these days. What with co-ops, advice threads, local meet ups, and just some good old chat

vaping is an international community for sure.

Welcome Monomach, never intruding..the more the merrier..

Ok...so I have an idea..do you guys want to start a thread over in general discussion for all of our e cig, juice, pic of creations and such...and then we will have the lurking thread for all of the personal and chit chat???? I know that we put out a lot of good info for new posters and there was a need or this thread would never have become this big...Let me know what you think?

Cool

I wanted to let you guys know that I am going to change my avatar...tired of looking at myself..lol

As long as we know beforehand

I don't think that there are words to express just how much all of you mean to me. You see, my husband was in the military for 20 years, he's retired navy...during that time I have moved to so many places. I have made friends along the way only to lose them 3 years later when it was time to move. I did that for 20 years so...as you can imagine, it's been really hard for me to make friends then lose them three years later. When we finally settled down here in Alabama I've been so reluctant to make friends (old habits die hard) I don't know why, it's just been so hard for me to make friends. I have only 2 people here that I consider friends. It's so hard for me, fear of losing..who knows why I can't seem to make friends. I thought I had a friend, she's the one who talked me into coming to that last job I had and she was the one who turned on me and said I said things that I didn't say, she ended up being my boss and that was fine, I still considered her a friend. Until I found out all the horrible things she was saying about me. I never said anything to her about it, I just went on as though nothing was wrong and I did my job. She was one of the ones who fired me and lied about me. How can you trust people after that? Then there are you guys, I don't know you in real life but I imagine if I did then you would have my back through anything and everything, you wouldn't lie about me or stab me in the back. You are the type who would leave a company that fired me because you knew the kind of person that I am and you would always have my back and believe in me and support me. I can't find people like you here where I am and that breaks my heart but...on the other hand, I have all of you as my friends and that heals my heart. What would I do without all of you? I never want to know. I wish there was a way we could all meet up and spend some time together, that would be my dream! I love you all and I thank you all for who you are and what you mean to me. God bless each and every one of you!

Same here

Welcome Monomach, never intruding..the more the merrier..

Welcome pull up a chair

 

[Stormy1960]

Off to do some site visits...check back in later..

 

[AngelsBreath]

Bye sweetie, see ya soon xoxoxox

 

[Monomach]

I'm 41, a father of 2 great kids. My daughter is 14 and my son 10, they both deserve to have me around a lot longer which is why I finally got the gumption to quit the stinkies

I had been a smoker since I was about 15, and for most of that it was Golden Virginia roll ups. I switched to vaping around 4 months ago and finally found something that works !!

I am a member of several forums now, some UK based and some International. It's a fantastic community as a whole with really friendly helpful people who keep me on the right path and bolster my resolve when it's needed.

I AM still waiting for the saving of money to arrive tho, theres always a new shiny calling for my attention..Ithaka on pre-order heh.

Would ya'll just look at what happens to your stuff when you're stuck on dial-up & have to find something else to do besides surf the forum???
I like your avatar Stormy Don't know what anybody looks like. Chimney girl, we dearly love you!

Well you see me My grandaughter and I last August. I discovered vaping that September right after that trip to see them.

I'm an Army Brat. We are either extroverted or introverted. I fall into the introverted camp, believe it or not. My singing has helped me come out of my shell. That and age.

This is a great group of people on this thread and a couple of others that I frequent. Ok....ECF has great people on it! I think that is because we have such a great support system here. Where else can we find vapers? I've not met any outside of the forum. We have vaping as our commonality which then leads to personalities that just click.
