    Date sure!, but if you are going for something more serious I think it would be a problem. I can't imagine cooking next to a wad of raw meat or using the same utensils etc. Its more of a practical thing than anything else. This is an issue for me when I have to choose a restaurant etc I prefer to cook, and eat at home, and know exactly what I am eating. So, most of you may have guessed already I can be quite a fun date! ;)

  • I'm in a relation with a guy who eats meat and all that.. but he doesn't eat meat, when he knows we meet, because it's disgusting to me, to kiss someone who just ate something dead . I'm really happy about knowing he respects that im vegan. We cook together and he likes eating vegan dinners but he doesn't want to turn vegan, it's hard to understand for me, but i also have to respect it. I mean, im just his girlfriend and not his mother. :D

  • Sure, why not?

    At this point I wouldn't date someone who was religious before I excluded a meat eater from contention.

    I would rather go out with a vegetarian/vegan before a carnivore though. My ex-husband ate fish and chicken and otherwise he ate vegan mostly.

    Don't settle for a life you don't want because you can't have the life you do want~

    My boyfriend eats meat and I can't help but get upset at times. If he was making a conscious choice it would be one thing (or maybe he really is and I'm in denial...), and maybe I would not be able to stand it, but this whole eating meat per default thing is merely a product of the current society (like there was a time where women not being allowed to vote was standard and considered normal).
    Sure some people choose the comfort of not knowing but I think that many would change their habits if they only got some insight on them.

    It sucks to feel like a fascist at every meal, people often think you're trying to change them though you are completely silent...

    Totally agree :D

    It's all a matter of respect to each other's choice.

    One question: Those who talk about respect would also respect if their partners would abuse children, beat someone to death, or do what ever other highly wrong thing???

    There is no rational argument left in this world for eating animals. So please do not talk of respect as if it was a kind of hobby or abstract religion. There are 50 billion(!!) animals (fish&Co. not even counting!) killed per year ... for no reason - that is nothing which deserves any respect at all.

    I also thought different when I was a vegetarian for over 20 years - but many things I did not know - and nowadays with documentaries like "Earthlings" not one can say any more "I did not know" ... the shocking truth is all over the internet. And the only respectful reaction towards any life would be becoming vegan. For some it takes some time ... ok ... but arguing with "respect" for people who eat animals is not just illogical - it's highly cynical when you know how much brutal suffering is going on just because people consume "meat" ...

    Um thats a little difficult. It would be easier to have a partner who is also a vegetarian but I think I would as long as they dont try to convince me to join them in eating meat. I hate when people try to convince me to eat meat its so annoying.

  • Dating with a meet eater is like dating with a pedophile. Never! It's disgusting.
