Not even a Fight broke me :)

[UntamedRose]

Short back ground...1.5- 2 pack a day smoker for 12 years. I LIKED smoking had no intention of really quiting when I purchased my first ecig(it was purchased with the thought of shuttin up nonsmoking hubby)

I Had tried quitting many in the past but I would always break down and go back to smoking as many if not more cigs then I had to before. The worst for me, the breaking point was stress especially fights with the hubby.

Well Saturday night we had one hell of a fight. We are the couple who rarely fights but when we do...it's scary. He messed up on our anny...big time.
Screaming, crying, whole world is ending, is this the end of us?!... kinda fight... no sorry, no details, but we are ok now.

But what I am so thrilled about is I ran to the store this afternoon...to drop off some redbox movies and grab some milk.
While there waiting in line I look at the wall of cigs and realized...I haddnt thought of cigs.
At all. That whole nasty fight..and I didnt think of em...let alone run out the door, purchase some and smoke the whole pack that night (as I've done in previous fights with previous quits)
Wasnt a will power....no, I'm not gonna break quit....it didnt even pop up in my mind!

1.5 years into vaping and cigs are an after thought now

Congratulations on your success Rose!!!!!!!

I'm really happy for you for not wanting a cig after a stressful situation. I think that's the biggest breaking point for a lot of people. Also glad that you two were ok after such a fight and wish you continued success in the future as well as your marriage.

Here's to you

That is really good to know. Sorry about the fight tho! I am less than 2 months in and the thought does come to me if it will be this easy to not smoke analogs a month or a year from now, so good to know that it works for you!

Sorry about the fight, but congrats on the revelation! I had terrible news a couple of months ago and that's when I knew vaping had me and the cigs didn't anymore. It's a good feeling!

I've been off cigarettes for a year now and the only time I've actually thought about them was a big fight with my husband a few months ago. I did go outside and vape.. wasn't even tempted to pick up one but I did think about it for just a second! I love not smoking!!

Rose...congrats on not caving in...I've wanted to smoke several times myself over arguments with DH. Nope, not going back to smoking because of HIM!...LOL. Stand your ground as I say.........

I've always went back to smoking after words with love one...since I went to e-cigs I vaped my head off now...it's nice not to run to the store for a pack, but I do still think about it..and just talk myself out of doing it..I will be glad when I'm like you and don't even think about cigs anymore..Congrats.

Congrats! That really says something, I'm happy the home front is better too.
I recently faced some heart ache myself which normally would send me off the wagon but not anymore. I drove to the corner e ciggy market and bought an overly expensive bottle of high e juice and vaped myself sick Buying smokes never crossed my mind.
