Should I quit being a vegetarian?!


Question: Should I quit being a vegetarian!?
A while ago I decided to become a vegetarian for a few reasons: First, it was lent so I wasn't going to eat meat anyway (This includes fish too)!. Second, I think animals deserve a right to live too, It seems kinda mean to kill and eat something or eat something that had to die so you could enjoy it!. And lastly--and the reason why I'm questioning being a vegetarian now--a girl I liked was a vegan and I thought maybe she would like me a little more if I didn't eat meat!. Anyway she got a boyfriend now and won't even talk to me as a friend!. So I don't know what to do!. It's really hard not being able to enjoy meat anymore!. I use to love meatloaf!. I just don't know what to do!. Should I continue as a vegetarian or eat meat again!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

If being a vegetarian is something that you really want to do for you, not for anyone else, then by all means stick with it! Try to forget about the girl for a moment and think about whether you really want to give up meat!. I'm vegetarian, and I have learned that only people who really want to stop eating meat are going to be able to!. If it isn't something that you feel you want to commit to, then you shouldn't keep being vegetarian!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you truly believe in the reasonings you gave for being vegan (that is, wanting animals to live), then continue veganism!. If you did it for Lent, and it sparked off a period of time of not eating meat, or for someone else, then eat what you like!. Don't pick up a cause without having your whole heart behind it, so decide why you want to be vegan or why you want to eat meat and run with it!. It's a choice you have to make!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

This decision is up to you!. Your second statement stated that animals should live!. Then you said you're considering switching because some girl doesn't like you!? It just sounds a little weird!.

Like I said earlier, it's up to you!. If you like to eat meat, then eat meat again!. But if you enjoyed being a vegetarian, then stay a vegetarian!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's not just the actual "killing" of the animal!. The animals live extremely horrible lives!. The killing is just part of it!. also the meat industry creates more pollution than cars!.

Though your original reasons for becoming a vegetarian were not really genuine, being that you were doing it to impress someone!.!.!.You shouldn't give up!.

Here is what got me!. www!.meat!.org

That is what made me become vegetarian and what kept me one!. You can't let food have control over you!. I used to love a lot of animal products, but I never went back just so I could have cheesecake!.

Try the meat alternatives!. They help a lot!. I just ate a vegan sloppy joe a few minutes and it was just like a real one only better because an animal didn't have to hang upside down and bleed to death so I could enjoy it!. also I didn't eat any feces!. All slaughtered meat has feces on it even in the store!. Look it up, I am totally not kidding you!.

Good luck in whatever you choose!. Just remember "To thine own self be true!."Www@FoodAQ@Com

well meat has nutrients you won't get anywhere else, even via vegetarian means!. Here is a wonderful article on how "meatless" vegan diets harm children and their shortcomings, don't get me wrong, eating fruits, vegetables and seeds ought to be an important part of our diets, unfortunately many people exaggerate!. The issue is that people over indulge on meat leading to the unnecessary deaths of thousands of flocks!. also since you believe in the Bible, remember after the flood of Noah and the change in conditions from the preflood earth to earth today, God commanded Noah to eat animal flesh, this video should explain it better to you!. http://freehovind!.com/watch-777966118389!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

you have to change your thoughts about meat
instead of thinking "mm yummy meat" think about it being a once living animal, then consider whether youd kill and eat a lamb!.!.!. if you would, go eat it, if not, find alternatives!.
my meat eating friends love quorn, soy, tempeh, tofu and other veggie protein alternatives-theres so much! find alternatives-explore south indian cuisine-try north indian paneer curry type dishes, you don't need to ever feel like your replacing meat for vegetables!
veggie koftas!.!.!. dahi vadas, beany wraps, keep exploring the world of vegetarianism, and do what you think is right!.

remember, food is fuel, though vegetarianism can provide the most healthy energy efficient, delicious fuel!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you're willing to give up being a vegetarian because the vegan girl you like isn't interested in you, maybe you should question how strongly you really believe it's 'kinda mean to kill and eat something or eat something that had to die so you could enjoy it'!.
Basically I believe in live and let live!.!.!.go eat whatever you want to, but to go vegetarian so some girl will like you more seems kind of fake to me!.
There are lots of vegetarian substitutes for meat, maybe you could try some of those to see if they satisfy your cravings!. If not, well sure, go back to eating meat!.!.!.!.and next time you want to impress a girl, try doing something closer to your heart!.

Sorry if I sound preachy, I don't mean to, but it just seems like you went vegetarian for the wrong reasons!. If someone really likes you, what you eat shouldn't matter!.!.!.!.my fiance is an omnivore, I'm a vegan and it doesn't matter to me what he eats, as long as he doesn't expect me to cook it!Www@FoodAQ@Com

being a vegan isnt really healthy i mean you could live your whole life not eating meat but there are somethings you get from meat that are important and some advice with that girl just talk to her normally and dont run up to her sayin your a veg!. and what not and her bf wont stay around for longWww@FoodAQ@Com
