I vape, we both vape, but i dont think it is healthy to be breathing in second hand vape during the night.
i take inhalers,
my chest is so improved since stopping smoking, apart from the inhalers, which i have been on for nearly a year.

If you're vaping in the day yourself it won't be any worse if you get some second hand at night.... maybe it's time you both quit together, especially as you need inhalers!

WineAndTiramisu · 16/11/2018 07:48

I'm pretty sure second hand vape is nothing compared to inhaling it yourself during the day...!
So YABU I'm afraid

Yes i think it's completely reasonable though not necessarily for that reason but if you would prefer he didn't i think its fine

Sirzy · 16/11/2018 07:49

Why is it worse during the night? Confused

LittleBookofCalm · 16/11/2018 07:51

i am asleep, it is in the bedroom, we never smoked in the bedroom, so i dont think we should vape, when one of us is asleep

Agree with you OP. I hate the stench of most vapes anyway😜

RavenLG · 16/11/2018 07:56

I’m a bit Hmm with this one. Obviously you can ask, but capers always say it’s lerfectly safe so I can’t understand the reasoning behind your “second hand vape” worry. Tbh if you need to take inhalers so often you need to stop putting anything else into your lungs.

Queenofthestress · 16/11/2018 08:03

If you need inhalors every night then you need to stop vaping.

MrsJayy · 16/11/2018 08:08

Just ask him not to do it but if you vape i can"t see why him vaping im the room makes a health difference I can see it being unpleasant though I don't think second hand vapour is a thing

Vaping is bad enough, but in the bedroom is just gross and selfish. An addict putting their needs before all others.

Vaping is not the same as smoking so 2nd hand vaping isn't really a thing. It's purely water vaper that's emitted. I don't vape but DH has used it to quit smoking as I had concerns about 3rd hand smoke around the baby which was confirmed by the HV (like it being on his hands or clothes after smoking outside). That said if it's done too much inside it becomes really anti-social and I don't personally want to be trying to see each other through a mist of vape 'smoke'. Could he not open a window? DH vapes in our bathroom sometimes when the weather is really bad as there is an extractor fan.

LittleBookofCalm · 16/11/2018 08:17

I have only need to take inhalers since March this year, I should get a review tbh.
well of course I shouldnt Vape,
No one should vape, no one should smoke,but vaping is far better of the two evils.

dh is selfish!

Well you need to tell him to not do it why should you suffer if you don't like it.

MrsStrowman · 16/11/2018 08:24

If you vape inside YABU. DH vapes, zero nicotine (I funny see the point) he only vapes in the garden at home because I don't vape and he's respectful of me not wanting to inhale it, you seen to be fine to vape directly all day so it seems hypocritical to ban him from vaping in the bedroom. Also why are you inhaling anything at all if you've got medical problems that mean you have to use inhalers? That seems like madness

LittleBookofCalm · 16/11/2018 08:26

yup @mrsstrowman. indeed, madness

LittleBookofCalm · 16/11/2018 08:27

Next time i order some eliquid i must go down a strength, until i am at zero nicotine. good reminder

My friends house is like a vape cloud it really is like walking through dry ice but when she smoked she never smoked in her house it is very odd vaping is just as unpleasant even ifit is just steam.

Surely the smell is disturbing?!
