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?

    My brother’s wife is a vegetarian/ vegan, not sure which.

    And it literally never comes up.

    She even cooks a mean burger.

    Personally, I don’t think I’d have any issue dating a vegan, but I certainly have no interest being preached at.
