Her name does not happen to be "petite tea" on deviantart? Yeah, she called me a horrible person for loving my mother more than animals. She also claimed her "boyfriend" did not mind her feeling the same towards him. Huh, he must be a desperate thing.

That is a hard decision. I may not be a vegan, but an animals death is still way more upsetting to a humans.

There is room for all of God's creatures, right next to the mashed potatoes.

Hey, maybe the hypothetical animal was a really cute puppy, you never know

I'm sorry that vegans like her give us a bad name. A true vegan is someone who values all life, including the lives of humans.

I'd also save an animal over a human any day. Humans suck.

A girl and a boy in my class actually agreed that if they see a baby and a puppy drown they'd save the puppy first...

Stuff like this, and the other red flags that we see on this site are why we encourage long courtships before finalizing the relationship with a wedding. People should have plenty of time to get to know their intended spouses before finalizing it, because it is so much better to DUMP THE JERKS before the wedding, than deal with a messy divorce later. Always pay attention to the red flags! It is possible to find good people, of course. That's why you don't want to waste your time with people practically spelling out "I am a nodcock" in semaphore with their red flags. Take the red flags, when first given, and say, "Hmmm, I can do better elsewhere," and find someone better elsewhere. Now, if you don't see the red flags until after the wedding, it's probably cheaper to do marriage counseling than divorce. Whirlwind courtships often wind up like this. Now and then, someone does the love-at-first-sight thing, and is ridiculously lucky, and gets a good one. Kinda rare, though. Most people tend to be comfortable enough in a new relationship to start flying their red flags at about six months to a year, so it's best not to marry before then, or you might be discovering the flag locker on your honeymoon.

The problem here isn't veganism. Eat whatever works for you. The problem is that the girlfriend declared that she would rather save some animal than the person she professes to love. And she doesn't see why the person she professes to love is hurt by the fact that she would rather save an animal than her lover. It's not even about humans vs. animals. It's about her LOVER vs. animals. Not even a beloved specific animal, but animals in general. Skunks are animals, and I'd really be hurt if my lover rated me lower than a skunk.

What a ******* bitch. Sorry to be mean but you're a human being. Animals, as mean as this may sound, are just animals. Millions are consumed every day. She would sacrifice her boyfriend just to save one of them? Wow
