The Guy and I broke up about a month ago (okay - I got dumped, but it sounds so much better when I say, "We broke up."). We're still living in the same apartment as I sort, pack, separate bills and do all of those other things you do before heading out to start the next chapter.
Just this week, cheese and eggs showed up in the refrigerator. After recovering from a quick bout of the vapors, it made me realize that I have to think about some things I haven't thought about in years. The Guy went vegan as soon as we started dating, and prior to this 4+ year relationship, I was in a long-term relationship with another vegan, so it has been many years since I've ventured into the world as a single vegan and had to think about things like where I draw the cruelty-free living line when it comes to dating partners.
Not that I'm planning on running out and starting to date any second now, but -- I assume -- I will eventually be dipping my toe in the vegan dating pool and will be confronted with decisions like whether or not I would date someone who isn't vegan -- or at least vegetarian.
In a recent survey, 30% of meat eaters said they would not date a vegetarian or vegan.
So now, I want to know...how about you? If you are vegan or vegetarian, would you date a meat eater?
