I decided I would be willing to date a non-vegan since despite the conveniences and shared ethics of other vegans, it can be hard to find them in general, and maybe I could influence people positively, though probably without any expectation for them to go vegan (but still hoping society will move toward it one day anyway).

But online questions asking people (non-vegans) if they would date a vegan really shocked and surprised me when most of the answers were no, mostly for reasons of inconvenience and a fear of being pulled into veganism. This leaves me feeling like finding other vegans may be my only option after all. Is this somewhat accurate?

    It is a problem in the relationship if it is a problem for you that they are not vegan.

    Get a partner that is good as they are, not a fixer upper with potential. Nobody likes it when somebody tries to change them.

      I think it wouldn’t be a problem for me, unless it was a problem for them… that’s what I’m wondering

        As long you are ok with them putting meat in the fridge and buying non vegan clothes etc, it probably wouldn’t be a problem then. If they are reasonable people.
