Vegetarian+Omnivore=???!
Answers: Okay wel this girl i really really really really really reallyreally really really really really reallyreally really really really really reallyreally really really really really reallyreally really really really really really LIKE is a vegetarian and im an omnivore so how would that compatibility work out. DO any of you vegan girls out there mind if your guyfriend is a meat-eater or does it not usually matter? I could probably stop eating meat but stuff like eggs and dairy products are kinda hard to avoid?
I never care when my boyfriends are meat eaters. And I swear I've dated a carnivore or two. Just, maybe try to eat less meat around her if you can.
I think, though, if you went vegetarian for her, that would be really really sweet. :)
My boyfriend eats meat. I'm a vegetarian. You're fine. She's not a vegan.
If she's a vegetarian you don't have to worry about eggs and dairy because vegetarians can consume those.
As for your compatibility, it's certainly possible. I know several meater/veger couples who do just fine.
I'm a vegetarian, and it doesn't bother me if people eat meat, it's their chose, and she is just a vegetarian, which means she still eats dairy
I'm not being fresh or anything but meat eaters stink. Your body oder is stronger because of what you eat.
Advice: Take lots of showers, use deodorant and don't eat meat before any 'make out" sessions.
She can probably convert you over time after you get married.
Guess that depends on who will do the cooking?
You don't have to change who you are. I think veg/omni relationships can be successful. Just try and be a bit mindful of what you order when your out on a date. Have a pack of chewing gum or even a toothbrush on hand just in case. You don't need to worry about eggs and diary since some vegetarians still eat them. Of course everyone is an individual and you may want to ask her how she feels about it.
Good luck =)
Depends on how open-minded you are (and how "into" vegetarianism she is). I'm a vegetarian and my bf is a meat-eater. I use a lot of Morningstar Farms products so that the "feel" of meat is there for him and the kids, but I don't have the guilt. Other times, we'll barbecue - I'll throw on some Quorn or a veggie burger or a shroom and he'll throw a steak on HIS side of the grill. :) Some vegetarians are repulsed by meat eaters - but as far as I'm concerned, they're just as narrow-minded as the meat eaters who are totally anti-veggie. To each his own. I have my beliefs, you have yours. No biggie.
It depends on the person I suppose. I personally would want a vegetarian boyfriend because I find it a turn on. But just because a guys not one wouldn't stop me from going out with him. Its up to you.
I don't mind people who eat meat, since I don't eat it I don't notice that much when people do. If you're comfortable not eating meat just go with that, is she vegan or vegetarian? vegetarians can eat eggs and dairy. If she's really hardcore veggie that it might be a problem.
I'm vegan, my husband is an omnivore. We've been married eight years. Our son split the difference- he's vegetarian.
My husband eats fish and sometimes very rarely chicken. I'm a vegan, but we met when I was an omnivore. I don't think now that I would date an omnivore- but if you don't plan on being serious- then go ahead.. its fine! Go on some non-dinner dates-and you should be just peachy ( but you would be suprised how delisious veggie restaurants are). Besides- if she is a vegetarian, I believe she eats eggs and dairy products- so your okay there. If she was a vegan on the other hand- you may have some problems. But others are okay with it- others are not. One of my friends (still on the market) would date guys that were not- just to try and change them. And- guess what? -She did- I think she had a 50% success rate(staying vegan or vegetarian) after they would break up. So who knows- she may turn you to our ways. (muahhaha*) lol
But don't worry- if you like her, go for her! :)
If she really really really really really reallyreally really really really really reallyreally really really really really reallyreally really really really really reallyreally really really really really really LIKES you too, then it should be easy to work out a compromise that makes you both happy :-)
Why would it be hard??
I am a vegetarian. I lived with a vegetarian/vegan wannabe (not strict by any means) for close to 3 years. Our problems had nothing to do with food - but him coming home and telling me that he was in love, going to marry, and moved in with someone off the internet - after 10 days of what was suppose to be time spent on a job interview.
The meat eaters that have asked me out - doesn't bother me - since I am not eating it. Problems - none really - other than I am a woman that wants to move slow - which is something that seems to be somewhat outdated now days.
Fact is, if she 'likes' you - your eating habits are the last thing that she or most women are going to be concerned about.
I would focus more on consideration shown, respect, and taking the time to actually sit down and TALK as well as LISTEN!
I've been vegan for 4 years and I'm way serious about it, but it's my deal. The people I date can do what they want, as long as they're cool with me not cooking them meat when they are over here, and if they're cool with not eating particular foods around me (there are a few meals i have trouble looking at).
Just be open minded! If you show that you're willing to TRY vegetarian food she'll be much more likely to be okay with you eating meat. I dated a guy once who would NEVER eat any of the food I would make because he thought I was trying to convert him, but I wasn't. I just made him dinner at my place, and it happened to not have meat. it was not some sinister plot! whatever, i dumped that jerk. don't be that jerk and everything will be okay.
My BF is an omni and people are surprised all the time by how the relationship works (we live together).
Truth be told, his attachment to eating meat/dairy is not that severe. We eat dinner together all the time and it's veg*n - so that we can both eat it.
If we go out for dinner, however, he will normally order meat. If we go to someone else's house, I'm normally the only one eating a veg*n meal. If he buys lunch at work instead of making it at home, 50% of the time it involves meat.
It's NEVER an issue for us, but that's because we respect each other's choices.
well if the relationship becomes a really good one, i guess it would drive her crazy about you if you cook for her and consider the fact that she is vegetarian and ask her what she wants to eat. it would show that you respect her. a lot.
Well, I'm a vegan and I wouldn't really want to kiss some one that just ate an animal. You can become vegetarian and eat eggs and dairy, and I bet she would would be happy and like you even more because you changed for her. Animals will thank you too!
I personally could never date/be with someone who ate meat- my husband eats fish and I'm ok with that, but meat makes me want to throw up because I'm a vegetarian for moral reasons.
I would ask HER how she feels about it- some people aren't bothered- it depends on WHY she's a vegetarian. If you're interested in going vegetarian and want some motivation- visit the peta website (I'm not kidding) the more you know the less you realize we actually need to eat meat!
Best of luck- let us know how it works out for you!!!
I have been a vegetarian for 14 years, and my husband eats every type of meat there is. We have been together for 11 years and haven't had any problems. You will be fine.
Doesn't matter...it's good when you can be in a relationship & each keep your individuality.
Look at me I'm agnostic meat eater engaged to a muslim Vegetarian! lol
I am a vegan. My husband is an omnivore. We have been together for ages. We do not even question it.
