well i just thought i'd share this little story. i was brought up vegetarian but ate meat on and off when i was a kid. but i was vege from age 11 to 20. then i was with a boyfriend who was a big meat eater and who never really made any effort to make me a different meal, just didn't give me any meat so i'd end up with half a plate of vegetables for dinner. anyway when i was 20 we were living together for a bit in france and i ended up eating meat. well i came to realise what an arsehole he was (not just about the meat thing) and now i have a new boyfriend and i've become vege again in the last few months and i told him tonight cos he's gonna cook me dinner later, and now he's gonna make a big effort to cook a vege meal for both of us even though he's always eaten meat. i thought that was so nice and considerate and it made me go all soft inside so i just thought i'd share with you!
well it was a lovely meal, pasta with tomato and garlic sauce sauce and bombay style potatoes. a strange mix but hey it was delicious (and not just vege but vegan too!) and he bought me flowers. ahhh...
Lillyblu, I'm happy for you. my boyfriend eats meat, and it meant the world to me when on our anniversary he cooked me a vegan meal and ate it with me ...that's love, baby! <3
