Personally I don't think I could be in a long term intimate relationship with a non-vegan. The same way I couldn't be extremely close to a racist or homophobic person. Sure, I know people who don't believe in gay marriage and they're nice, but there's always going to be a level or awkwardness, lack of understanding.
same..well now at least. it would be way to upsetting for me..compassion is the number one must in a person for me.
my first boyfriend was a meat eater, my second was a vegetarian and my current boyfriend is vegan. its only gotten better. and the vegan is nicer than either of the other two ever were as well haha.

I definitely agree with the thing about lack of understating on homophobia, eg. someone who used "gay" as a insult all the time would irk me endlessly and I'd probably complain so much they'd stay away. But I guess with the vegan thing, I just take it as good enough that someone is respectful of my choices and just not really at a point to commit to the diet? Like, as long as they had an honest amount of intent to minimize harm?
Also seeing as it seems like the place. Does anyone else find the whole teenage dating process strange and a little contrived? Way to many loaded words and rituals for my liking.

Yeah, if I was single I would only date a veg*n. I think it'd be nice to have something like that in common since it plays such a huge part of my life. But I now have the challenge of converting an omni!

Not too sure... but what I have noticed is kids seem to have grown up alot more. I see 12 y/o girls wearing clothes... when back in my day (haha. I sound like a granny. Lol!), used to wear at 15-16 years old. I think it has caught on, be it from older girl's influences, tv, magazines, whatever, but they seem to want to act older than what they are.
Yeah, I wore 95% second hand clothes until I was 14. Samples included a purple polar fleece jumper, a variety of sweat pants and one prized billabong tshirt hahaha. I can't imagine getting away with that as easily now, and I only finished high school last year.
Personally I blame those creepy bratz dolls..... ha.
Clearly the best part of being a kid is not caring what people think so much. I guess that doesn't make sales though...
aha, those bratz dolls are horrible. yeah their shoes are their feet so when you change them they just have little nobs down there! (i babysit lol)
I also don't think i'd be able to date someone who wasn't at least a vegetarian. Its so important to me that i don't think i'd be able to get past that big difference between us. Although this definitely doesn't help my love life haha.
Kids these days creep me out!!!! i was still playing with dolls when i was 11, not wearing low rider jeans and eyeliner! youngest in a single parent family, i lived off hand me downs and op shop clothes all my life and never had a problem with it. Being a kid was the most fun ever, i don't understand why they wanna cut it short. My future kids will not be like that! hopefully...
