Well all i can say is my wife was saying the same thing that the mod i spent the money on was a waste and she couldn't believe that i got it bla bla bla...so today is the first day in 5 years that i didnt smoke a real cig and i feel alot better already. so she was pretty impressed about it and now she likes it and is starting to believe. just stick with it and he will see that it works and is way better for you
No worries, I'll never go back to analogs. I'm already totally off, and have been for 8 days. I am kinda head over heels for my VK, though...
Carthead, are you suggesting I USE my frying pan? Ya'll are keeping me in stitches...plus keeping me sane.
Aer, I am soooo thankful I am not a young married anymore! All that raising a husband talk just wears me out! If Mike had told ME to go outside..well it doesn't bear thinking of..the poor man! It's great when they finally grow up and lose all those control issues.
vape when you can and hold your ground. Put a sign on the fridge that says how long you have gone without a cigarette. The higher it goes..the less he will feel P.V.'s are stupid. Also keep showing it off. That another way he will see others don't view the P.V. as a bad thing. (and he is being wrong headed). But most of all vape for you..and the kids and him.
Hang in there.

Hi all! Boy, that first post struck a nerve...aerinfirehair, when you can start thinking with his mind, you are done for! You are a placeholder, no one can step on that without your permission!
Ha, sign this "Older but Wiser!", when they start taking for granted they no longer need permission to step on your spot, at least use a frying pan! It's a good start, you can always escalate from there.
You'll be just fine, you have a lot of friends here who have been there, sometimes it does come to a battle, not from choice. Respectfully demand respect. Yah, that's gonna work! Just remind him you said "Yes" not "Yes, Sir!"

I still think the only fair trade for sending me outside with the pv is for him to go outside with his snacks. All in all, the snacks are harming him at least as much as my pv is harming me. Probably more. I'm really crabby tonight and low on nicotine so...
Been there, sweet, there is no justice I think. My guy is what I can call a Red Neck, all is well as long as he has everything he wants. It's the same guy who can never quite remember that it's my birthday, or an anniversary, but don't ever forget his, that would be an insult and would hurt his feelings forever.
Somehow you have to make him see that you're as important a person as he is, to at least pay you the respect to respect you, if that makes sense. Show him some posts from people that have gotten away from smoking with our PV's, I just celebrated the end of my first year without a cigarette. Just about every person who posts on this Forum is a success story! You make him sit down and read them with you.
He needs to wake up and acknowledge your power to control your own life and give you credit for your intelligence. It's a lot more fun to do life together.

I suggest you get a silver bullet...then you wouldn't need the frying pan...8-o

He should swallow it you mean?! That would keep him busy for a day or two! If it was big enough maybe three, tops.
Or he could swallow it from the other end....but I'd assume that would require a trip to the ER....I bet they'd get a kick from that x-ray...
I think that would be better than threatening to shove your foot up there...for you at least.

I made a deal with my girl. I told her that if she stopped huffin the cowboy killers I would buy her an e-cig and provide her with the carto's. Well it worked like a charm. She hasn't puffed on a real cig in 10 months. Woo hoo! Bribery for the win! If you love someone you should support them in ANY effort to better themselves!
While you all go on about me "training" my husband and getting justice and all that, let me propose that I am a respectful wife and will keep the peace in my home however I can. He is always open for discussion even if I cannot change his mind. Its one of the reasons I married him, our communication. So while I might complain or vent, it doesn't mean I'm willing or ready to take action. He's a good man!
I can only assume the silver bullet is the e-cig, not the ahem, adult toy.
I'm not sure why he doesn't support me in my switch to e-cigs, he just seems to think its another vice...

Well, it is... sorta. And while I don't agree with it, I see his POV.
He sees it as you're "just" (just?!?!) swapping habits and doesn't understand that there is more to the cigarette addiction than nicotine and the hand to mouth... and I don't think he really comprehends how much healthier this switch is. Not just for you, but for everyone around who would, otherwise, be getting second hand smoke.
As for training......
My hubby was supportive, but not uber enthusiastic - until I urged him to take a vape off of one of my 0 nic juices and showed him how my new "toy" worked. Now he wants an ePipe so we can vape together, and he's putting together his 0nic juice wish list. Is this something that would be an option?
He's pretty resistant. He used to be a smoker, but he just stopped one day...I can't explain it, really. He has no urge. So I really don't know. Not right now, anyway, with no $$$ coming in.
If hes not making any ends meant then his word doesn't mean ..... Tell him ti ...., cause your saving your family money but not buy analogs and buying ejuice.
What I have to say comes from an EMT that has mostly seen men who beat there wifes, so anything I say is pro-violence to men.
