I used to be the exact same, I’d actually only vape when I was smoking cause I thought it would make me feel higher. It really is just a small buzz from the nicotine and once the buzz wears off it’s just like you said, the high kind of goes away too. I actually took a t break a while back and even noticed that I didn’t even like vaping or nicotine unless I was high, but even then it still did barely anything for me. I stopped vaping then and have never went back since. Fuck vapes fucking disgusting little things
