Most non- vapers find it annoying when someone is not paying attention to the people around them and is casually enjoying an e-cigarette. If you feel the same way, don’t miss this article, we will give you some advice on how to behave with a vaper if you don’t want them to use e-cigarettes in public places you visit.
1. First, understand that vapers – they are not vaping for you.
Vapers never think of vaping as cool or trying to impress people around them. We don’t vape to show off, it’s about being true to ourselves. No one in the vaping community uses e-cigarettes to look cool or get attention from others. You know, vapers think vaping is cool. You think that’s stupid? No way. Vaping is a replacement for another habit that’s bad for your health and I don’t care if you think that’s true or not. We never think that going to bars, drinking, or smoking is a way to show off, so don’t think I’m bragging about vaping.
2. If you think vaping is as harmful as smoking, you are wrong.
I can guarantee that vapers have spent more time researching vaping than you have about smoking, and they have more evidence on the health benefits and harms than you do. Don’t tell other people what they should do about what they’re doing, because you’ll become an unpopular person. Keep your opinions to yourself, I think that’s much wiser.
3. Don't try to fake a cough when you don't want someone to vape.
If you are sensitive to very diluted glycerine or propylene glycol vapors, you are a rare case, and deliberately making fake coughs is not a good way to show vapers that you don't want them to vape. There are plenty of other polite ways to express your inconvenience, and I'm sure if you behave politely, vapers will be happy to go elsewhere or stop using e-cigarettes.
4. Never judge vapers and make them into a myth, you might be exaggerating things.
Are you one of those people who always gets annoyed when they see other people vaping? They blow smoke into the air right in front of you, filling the room so you can’t see through the smoke to watch your favorite movie or go the wrong way. Stop it right now. I bet no one likes the story you’re making up, and even if it’s true, the one vaper you see is not a reflection of the vaping community as a whole. We don’t want to bother people, so let’s not bother others with boring stories.
5. Ask us anything about vaping.

7. Finally, let's congratulate ourselves for using e-cigarettes to quit smoking traditional cigarettes which are harmful to our health.
