Some just don't get it...

Seriously...who cares what other people think? I know, the negativity sucks. But as long as YOU believe vaping is healthier than smoking and you feel better because of it, learn to ignore the naysayers.

I am fortunate because my husband, who never smoked, is THRILLED beyond words that I am no longer smoking cigarettes. In his own words he doesn't give a rat's ... how much money I spend on it either as I try to find my perfect flavors and such. He reminds me at least once a week how proud he is and every time we go to the grocery store he says "isn't it great that you are not buying a carton of cigarettes?". He even tells the clerks that I quit smoking.

And my best friend who smoked about the same as I did took to vaping like a fish to water when I turned him on to it.

I wish you had the same support as I do. But you do, in a way, you have all of us at ECF to cheer you on!

I believe what I can see. Perhaps vaping has negative health effects, perhaps not.

All I know for sure is that I no longer cough and hack until I turn blue, especially in the morning, unlike while I was smoking tobacco. I can speak for a good while without coughing, which is especially important for me as a trial attorney.

Most of all, I simply feel better, and my wife no longer cringes when she kisses me!

If people feel they need to give me the benefit of their unasked for opinion I would just say well I didnt ask for your thoughts or permission when I started smoking so you can imagine how much I need them now
I dont think a family member would DARE test me on that that though - if they know me at all they'd be aware I'll do what I want based on my own decisions because Im an educated adult not a child.
Usualy though I feel the best answer to any crticism is to just agree with them 'mmm yeah ok' - they cant make an argument if you do that - and of course I have no intention of actually DOING what they suggest. I like a quiet life
