Specifically, vaping with nicotine causes the nicotine addiction. But there's a really awesome alternative: you can vape nicotine free. Any decent vape shop will let you pick out the strength that you like, and 0% is an option. One of my roommates did just that, because he liked the social benefits: getting to pretend he was a dragon, hanging out with his other friends during their smoke breaks, etc. Of course this doesn't solve any potential other problems with the practice (the popcorn lung scare from a while back comes to mind) but in theory, if you simply must smoke, it's possible to do so without any nicotine at all.
