How I started vaping

I was a long time smoker, 25 years and about 2 pks/day. I really enjoyed smoking, but concerns of the smell, costs and health aspect of it, got me to consider quitting. I had never tried quitting before, so I was skeptical that vaping would be able to replace that urge, but got positive feedback from other former smokers.

I educated myself online about the basics, reading articles and watching videos. I finally went to a local vape shop and they were incredibly helpful. It seemed promising, it was fun trying different flavors and such. The whole time I was at their tasting counter, there was a couple next to me and I kept thinking the dude looked really familiar, but couldn't quite place him. It finally clicked, it was an old friend I hadn't seen in over 25 years when his family moved. Our families had been close, but just lost touch over the years. He introduced his wife and we sat there talking and vaping for a couple hours. I figured that was a good omen to start my vaping journey.

I was off cigarettes about a week after I started vaping, I was very surprised how easy it was to make the transition.
