its your own choice if you really want to dont pay attention to people saying dont, i know lots of non smokers who vape. i personally quit smoking for about a month before i started vaping, i just started because i was a real social smoker and almost everyone i know smokes and i really like all of the flavours.

    Northern NJ native , Coastal NC now.
    I see quite a few people who are getting into nicotine for the first time because of e cigs , is it a smart idea , not in my opinion .

    All of them say pretty much the same thing , nicotine isn't really that bad and i believe that statement is true if used in moderation for otherwise healthy adults.

    They seem to believe there are no downsides regarding their health , while they may not see downsides to their health with nicotine don't think for a minute that the health concerns are only about nicotine.

    The biggest unknowns and what really scares a lot of people and rightfully so is the chemicals in the e juices, fact is the overwhelming majority of e juices contain certain chemicals that has a chance to do significant damage to your health , especially over time .

    There are no long term studies about what could happen at this point since it's way too early in the game , but if you think you can vape a lot of these juices with no ill effects to your health over the long haul i think your sadly mistaken.

    Some of these chemicals scar lung tissue that is not reversible , minor as it may be but i avoid all of these troublesome chemicals and will not vape anything that has diketone's in it .

    So just remember, anything you take up is most likely going to have consequences of some sort if not right away many years down the line.

    In my humble opinion, people that never smoked cigs should NEVER EVER start vaping. The entire scene is comprised almost entirely of ex-smokers. The reason I do it is because Big Tobacco turned me into a nicotine junkie and vaping is a far, FAR safer to deal with my habit. I smoked a pack a day for about 25 years.

    Just my two cents...... :) :2c:
    This is all nonsense. Big tobacco didn't turn you into anything. YOU made a choice. Just as a nonsmoker would be making this choice. We all get to make choices. Don't blame yours on someone else, and don't presume to dictate how others can or should. Vaping is not exclusively for nicotine addicts.

    Hi there, I'm a non smoker, I dislike smoking in its entirety.
    But my girlfriend vapes because she's trying to quit smoking.
    I was wondering if I should start vaping 0mg nicotine liquids so someone's in it with her or something?

    May be a stupid idea but, I'd like other peoples opinions?
    thanks.

    I don't know if you vaping will necessarily help her so I tend to think why start. Of course, you are an adult so the choice is yours in the end. The things that pop into my mind are.....If she was using a patch or chantix, would you too? Another thought is that maybe you are wanting to try it and just using her as an excuse to try it? Please don't be offended as I can see the allure of it. I have had many a friend that are non smokers become interested in vaping because they hear me talk about the flavor so I really don't see any harm in vaping, but only do it if it is something you choose for yourself. As for helping your girlfriend....just let her know you think she is wonderful and will love her no matter what. Good luck to you both and welcome if you decide vaping is for you. :)

    I have tried disposable water vaping sticks, I enjoyed them. I don't want to use hers because of the nicotine.

    This is just my opinion but I doubt the nicotine delivered through a puff here or there to try out her newest flavor or show support that you don't think what she is doing is wrong would harm you in any way. Nor would it turn you into a nic craver. You are the only one that knows if this type of support would help her or not.

    To the OP: Regardless of the myriad arguments in this thread, there is one evidence-based truth that I hope you get from this post. Recovery, first and foremost, is based on self-determination. No matter what you do, in the end, the only reason your girlfriend will give up smoking and start vaping or quit altogether, is because she is determined to do so for her own reasons. Its great you want to support her by starting up vaping but in the end, it is totally up to her.
