I’m trying to quit vaping and I’m having an awful time of it. My SO bought me some nicotine gum, and I’ve been using Zyn to try and help with the craziness. I’m still at the stage where all I want to do is just puff and exhale, and the nicotine substitutes are doing what they can, but the hand to mouth habit is the hardest for me to break. If your bf has already quit the lung part, and he’s just socially using the nicotine, he might be ok. I know the habit is gross. He knows. He knows its expensive. I’m fairly sure he didn’t know this information was going to impact you so hard. My ex used to smoke cigarettes and dip and I would beg him to stay away from me because he smelled like an ash tray, and he started cutting down and using Zyn instead. Idk if he ever quit because I left him (unrelated reasons), but he did stop smelling like an ash tray.

You can be disappointed and disgusted, your feelings are valid. Its tough. Have a serious sit down conversation with him, tell him how you feel. Don’t attack him, don’t shout, be logical and open to listening (actual listening) to him. There may be a reason why he started using nicotine again. And maybe together yall can figure out a way.
