Very cool e-cig story (to me anyway!)

Alright, yesterday, my gal and I were driving to Louisville to sort some things at different shops. She drove and when she picked me up and we started on our journey, I told her it had been over 40 hours since I'd had any tobacco. (We both used to smoke and she quit years ago and has resented me not and complained of the smell etc ever since). So I explained the e-cigs and that there was no tar or the other 10,000 or whatever carcinogens and just nicotine and she couldn't smell it. I vaped in her car and later in her apartment and kept asking her if it bothered her and she was like; "I can't smell anything, why would it bother me?"

This is so cool! It's completely taking the place of my old habit and doesn't bother my gal! I'm at just over three days, but I am pretty sure I can do this. Such a cool way to get rid of tobacco once and for all!

Awesome! My wife still hits the analogs...she's only had 1 today. Anyway, when she comes back in, I can smell it before she makes it to the room. I've washed my winter coat and jackets twice, and still can't get all the smell out. It's one of those things I never could understand when I was smoking, but I do now.

I was vaping some Tobacco 555 in the house a little while ago. My daughter could smell it in the dining room. She didn't complain since it isn't an offending aroma, but she pointed it out to me. That's one flavor that I'll have to go to the front porch with. We're trying to sell the house, and aromas, no matter how pleasant, aren't liked by prospective buyers.

I'm so happy for you and the more you vape the less appealing cigarettes will become. I should know coming from once being a 20+ year cigarette smoker to a constant vaper I can't believe I ever smoked. It smells nasty I don't miss smelling like an ashtray now if only my boyfriend could quit totally and just vape all would be great in our relationship because I hate going to see him and coming home smelling like smoke and he won't come over here because I no longer allow smoking in my house. But I'm not going to let a silly thing like smoking ruin a 3 year relationship.

Oh man, you sound like a militant ex-smoker. My husband still smokes and I would never ask him not to smoke in the house. He even asks me if it's okay to smoke. I say definitely, go for it. I don't mind the smell of a cig. I do know smokers will quit when they want to quit. Forcing them will not make it happen.

Not militant just now that I don't smoke analogs it makes me sick to smell analog smoke and it causes me to get bad headaches.

He was doing really good at quitting and then got laid off then just here last week he took a new job because the layoffs were indefinite so that set him back. But I think now that he has two weeks at his new job I think he will do a lot better at giving quitting analogs another shot. I don't mind it that he smokes because I love him, but we made this quitting pact together.

Brother, you are well on your way. I know I speak for everyone here who has been in your shoes when I say that 3 days being smoke free is a milestone.

And you are very smart. Keep checking with the lady to make sure your juice passes her olfactory senses. While we all feel that vaping is safe we often forget that even a harmless odor can be irritating to those around us. (And we also know that one does not irritate the female species :D).

It makes a world of difference... I bet you will hate the smell of cigarette smoke when a smoker comes in from outdoors!

LOL... are you kidding, I used to find that smell offensive even when I did smoke analogs and the smell came off of me!

Bad smell..... good riddance.
