. If you really, really like someone, 'the vegan thing'/'the omnivore thing' is not something you can't overcome.
Hmm. I think I disagree. I would not continue to see a meat eater. I would have disrespect for them. It would eventually cause hassle.

I've been thinking about this. I guess it depends on why you're vegan. If it's for health or environmental reasons, then I think you could quite happily partner up with a carnist, so long as each person was understanding of the other's choices. If one's veganism comes from a strong respect for animal life and belief that harming other creatures is morally wrong, then that seems like more of an impasse.
The majority of my friends are not vegan, and make no attempt to decrease the amount of meat they consume. I'm finding it increasingly hard to look past what seems like pure selfishness.

Hmmm, I think everyone should have the choice to live their life how they want to live it... I choose not to eat meat and dairy, but I know loads of people that choose to do the opposite to me. My GF eats meat but at the same time, respects my values as well... I cook for her and she cooks for me... feeling disrespect for their choice isn't right. Maybe I'm a bit long in the tooth about this now but I live my life how I want to and I respect people for their right to do that as well, even if I don't agree with it

You never know, perhaps she's desperately trying not to fall in love, but I've heard this one before in various cases, and if I recall correctly the consensus was that it's generally an excuse for people who don't want to say why they really don't want to carry on. As ever, it may be a blessing in disguise. If you really, really like someone, 'the vegan thing'/'the omnivore thing' is not something you can't overcome. That said, it might not be the end of the story, so be flexible about developments. #noteasy
