Tricky dilema

[giles]

I guess the answer is you get used to it. My non-smoking wife put up with me smoking for 40 years. Nagged a little, but not much considering.

As far as getting yours to vape goes, it's early days yet. She may not really believe you'll stick to it. Part of her may hope you don't. She may not want to be be the one vaping if you go back to smoking. I'd give it some time, then try things like low nic, pure VG juices. Even maybe vaping over a throat sweet for a bit.

As long as I don't spend as much on vaping as I did smoking then I should be ok

Haha! - don't bank on that Kibbster, my wife still smokes, about 10 a day, and still has a go at me for the amount I spend. I'm only spending about half my tobacco budget, but that is conveniently forgotten when the Paypal entries appear on the bank statement!

Yep, I can so see that happening!

How about a subtle hint like buying her a small gift, such as a can of air freshener and a packet of extra strong mints?

Seriously though, there's not a lot you can do. My hubby smokes too and the smell often makes me feel sick, especially in the mornings when he lights his first fag and the stench wafts around the house. I get used to it though as the day goes on.

But TBH, I have no right to criticise. I'd be a hypocrite, after all, I used to smoke. If anyone had complained to me about it, I'd have told them where to go! Wouldn't all of us have done the same?

Very true

Yes I was thinking of getting of getting a couple of low nic juices for her to try.
Tbh, if she didn't get a throat hit I think she'd actually consider switching.... as long as I did all the filling of juice and cleaning of PVs of course

Low nic juice.
Naaa. Lots of expensive mods and attys you must buy her to show her how much you care. If she don't like em, be horrible to see em go to waste.

Mr Boo still smokes too, and it now irritates me beyond belief, though I've not said anything as it will no doubt cause a row.

I've made joky references to the smell, but it's had no effect so far.

He did at one stage say he wanted to try vaping, so I duly bought him a matching eGo kit like my own, but he didn't take to it.

As Karma says, you can't do anything other than try to encourage them to quit- if they won't, im afraid they wont.

Well I dunno how this works, but since my x started on the cig a likes, I can smell her breath and it ain't good. Before when she smoked I smelt nothing
