I decided I would be willing to date a non-vegan since despite the conveniences and shared ethics of other vegans, it can be hard to find them in general, and maybe I could influence people positively, though probably without any expectation for them to go vegan (but still hoping society will move toward it one day anyway).
But online questions asking people (non-vegans) if they would date a vegan really shocked and surprised me when most of the answers were no, mostly for reasons of inconvenience and a fear of being pulled into veganism. This leaves me feeling like finding other vegans may be my only option after all. Is this somewhat accurate?
I’m fine with dating vegans, as long as they understand I am not and will be getting the steak.
That is the main point. I don’t mind vegetarians or vegans, I have no issues cooking something appropriate when I have them as guests at home. I actually see this as an interesting challenge to serve excellent food for them, too. The only thing I object to is being preached to, and people who expect me to offer vegan or vegetarian food if they have not told me beforehand.
