Miscellaneous: Disloyal!

Disloyal!

By saywhat - 26/11/2010 03:28 - United States

Today, I was at my boyfriend's house for dinner with his family. His mom cooked up a steak dinner, except that I'm a vegan, but trying to be a good girlfriend, I forced it down. Upon his mother finding out I was a vegan, she called me "disloyal to my beliefs." FML

Today, my boyfriend called my mother stupid and angrily argued with her at a family dinner. Why? We have a long-running family joke that "Vegan food doesn't contain calories," and my boyfriend thought my mum said it seriously, and was therefore a moron. FML

Digging my heels in

Today, my family dragged me to a steakhouse, knowing full well I'm vegan. I sat there, with my sad little salad, watching as they stuffed themselves with burned animal flesh and laughed at me. They wonder why I hate them all. FML

Today, my vegan step-mom found out I ate at McDonald's yesterday. She gave me hell and asked me how it feels to give money to "murderers". All while my dad sat quietly by because he's too whipped to speak his mind. It wasn't even her house a month ago. FML

Attention to details

Today, I spent hours cooking dinner for my date. When they arrived, they told me that I'd probably not paid much attention to their dating profile, as it clearly mentioned that they were vegan, and thus couldn't eat any of the food I'd prepared. FML

Today, I went on a date with a great vegan guy in my class. We went to a vegi-restaurant, I dutifully ate all the meatless dishes, but he seemed pissed about something, and other diners kept giving me angry looks. After we left, I realised I'd worn my leather jacket to the date. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. Why? Because I became a vegetarian. Apparently, he doesn't believe in "not eating meat." FML

Today, my boyfriend told me the sauce he made for our dinner that was meat-based, trying to show me how nice meat is and stop me being a weirdo vegan. The reason I’m vegan is because my digestive system can’t handle animal protein. I’m writing this from the bathroom, vomiting myself to death. FML

Man meat

Today, I discovered my boyfriend gets lunch every day at Burger King. I confronted him, and he broke up with me. Apparently, he only pretended to be vegan like me to get in my pants, and now the jig is up he dumped me so he can return to having meat at all three meals of the day. FML

Grossed out

Today, my boyfriend took me home to have dinner with his parents. I couldn’t eat a single bite after watching his mom let her three dogs taste all the food off her hands, while she also licked her own fingers while cooking. Later on, he dumped me for being rude and “too high maintenance." FML

Nice try

Today, I fed my husband a vegan beef burger so I could show him that it tastes exactly the same when he didn’t notice. He noticed on the first bite and spat it across the kitchen because he thought the meat had expired before I cooked it, and tasted disgusting. FML

Why are so many people saying "YDI for being vegan"? Not all vegans and vegetarians are all high-and-mighty in your face about it. Some just don't like the idea of eating something that used to be alive. OP, you should've told your boyfriend to let his mom know before she wasted time cooking something you didn't want to eat.

Just quit your veganism and eat some real food from now on.

i'm quite sure that vegetables and grains are a lot more real than what is passed as meat these days.

#162, it depends. Genetically modified vegetables and grains are just as bad as the bunch of chemicals they call meat. And being a vegetarian doesn't necessarily help the planet. Sure, less chickens/cows/pigs/fish are killed thanks to the vegetarians, but what about the forests that are cut down and the savage animals whose ecosystems are destroyed in order to make place for the soy/other vegetables cultures? It's really difficult to find truly healthy food these days and to protect the planet.

I'm sorry, but, you should've said "**** it" and told her you're not going to eat the steak. It doesn't sound like you're a very strict vegetarian if you were able to "force it down."

She cooked a steak dinner, except you're vegan? Please learn to use words. Oh and you need to go die. Being a good girlfriend does not mean forsaking what you believe in to please your man.

#166, she wasn't trying to please her man, she was trying to please the mother-in-law. That's different. And she didn't "forsake what she believed in". She just proved that she's not a fanatic vegan. Some people aren't vegetarian in order to save the planet, they're vegetarian because they simply hate the taste of meat. It's not the end of the world if she ate meat. She just had a hard time eating it. And the mother-in-law still wasn't pleased. I say FYL, OP.
