I wanted to be supportive of my SO and when we started renting a new place i agreed that it would be meat-free (she was Vegetarian at the time). Within a few months she wanted to become vegan after 20 years Vegetarian. I said no problem and we made our house vegan. When we went out to eat i just ate vegan with her and after 7 months or so i realized i had been vegan so i might as well just commit to it.
So yeah, kind of silly. I do take issue with the meat* industry and all that but what made me decide was basically just "that wasn't so hard" and i just kept doing it. That was about 7 years ago? Crazy.
I also went vegan because of my SO. I think what is silly are the people who refuse to take their partners seriously. I would have never thought of it on my own but because I respect them and what they believe I made the first jump to vegetarianism and I am so glad I did. Thanks for joining us and posting your experiences!
