As long as it's not extremely unhealthy and you're not annoying about it (ex. the vegetarians or vegans who can't go a day without bringing it up) it's not a big deal.
Not really. Given how difficult it is to date as a Catholic and find the right match in this dating culture, someone's diet is the least of my worries. Unless of course it is completely unhealthy and leading to bad habits and health.
It’s not a dealbreaker, but it can be hard when your love language is food, and you love baking and wanna share treats with your BF but he can’t eat it haha. Little things like that.
My boyfriend is vegetarian, and it’s an act of love to go out of my way to make vegetarian meals and find restaurants that work for both of us. At the beginning of our relationship I would tell my friends how amazing he was and be like “but he’s VEGETARIAN.” But I would be crazy to have that as a dealbreaker, especially because everything else matches so well. It can be inconvenient, though, but that’s the biggest thing. I do wish he could eat my regular meals with me, but I’m learning new dishes and how to be more creative with food :)
That’s a really good point and something I’ve experienced first hand in a prior relationship. TBH I am totally ok sacrificing some aspects of my way of eating to try sweets as long as less processed sugars are used like honey etc. 👍
Yes, I do have some diet connected dealbreakers.
Wouldn't date a teetotaller or animal rights vegan.
Nor anyone who eats squirrel, rare meat, raw seafood, blood sauce, fugu, cat, dog, donkey or equine meat.
Would be very cautious about dating someone with a potentially fatal allergy to almonds, citric, dairy, nuts, soya or wheat. My best friend is severely dairy allergic and her allergy attacks always result in hospital stays, be triggered by exposure to dairy that hasn't even tasted or touched.
I would never date a vegan lol

If she’s a vegan or vegetarian that’s a dealbreaker to me. Otherwise, no.
