Does being vegetarian restricts you in some ways?

I mean, because most of the people around are non-vegetarian, so you can't eat/share with them.
Secondly, I don't lke the smell of meat and neither do I want to touch meat, but most of the girls around are non-veg( especially Japanese, Korean etc), so despite liking these girls physically, I can't kiss or have sex with them. So being vegetarian is restricting my romantic life. Do you have any solution?

Yes it does if you try to live the same life you did before you went veg. However, just learn to adapt to situations. I went vegan and have learned how to eat at a regular restaurant, although it can be very tough depending on the place and sometimes you might have to cheat. (i.e., Japanese restaurants are the worst because fish flakes are in everything, even the sauces) I have been able to eat/share vegan food with friends/family who are even closed minded about such foods. Best thing is to give them things that aren't too crazy for them and don't tell them it's veg. Or point out how some everyday common foods are veg (PB&J sandwich is a very common vegan lunch for kids).

I've known mixed couples (veg and non-veg) and it's really up to them on how to deal with it. One couple I knew, the non-veg was practically vegan because his girlfriend was. He even did all the cooking. Once in awhile, he would buy some cheese to eat on his own. I also knew a couple where the wife and child would sneak out for burgers. Personally, I haven't yet had to debate if I would get involved with a non-veg but where I am there are plenty of veg restaurants and some of them do have singles night type things. You might want to look into that sort of thing. Hanging out at veg places and try making friends there, etc. You could start off by making a few veg cyber friends. There are online dating sites for vegs, just do a search. Also, there is meetup.com which has meetups for groups of various interests and there might be a veg group in your area. In mine there is even a vegan camping group.

Vegetarians are a pain in the ***. I will not go to restaurants with them, they harass the staff, asking hundreds of questions, and then complaining because there's nothing for them to eat. Or flat out refuse to go where I want to go and I always have to go to some creepy smelly Vegetarian Thai place (the same one every time). When the reality is that they surely consume some level of meat products on a regular basis. There's gotta be a little beef in the broth. Besides, who could be vegetarian as long as bacon exists?

I don't have a soloution. I think being vegetarian/vegan is restricting, but in a good way. I don't want to be romantically involved with someone who consumes flesh, so I think it is good that it turns me off.

Trust your instincts and go with them. You WILL find someone who shares your beliefs. In some areas, it's downright important to. Good luck!

Yeah, it can be a problem romantically. I married an omni, but if he suddenly died or something, I'm pretty sure I would only date other vegans/vegetarians, just because the strain the lifestyle differences put on the relationship.

The resriction is self imposed. Many vegetarians/vegans are involved in "mixed" (read with non veggies) relationships without any problems at all.

Therefore the solution is to date other with the same restrictions.

Sure it is, it restricts you from eating animal products.

But then again being drug free is restricting too, does that stop you from being drug free, if infact you are?

you can try veggiedate and look for singles in your area that are also vegetarians.

I am also veg. but we live in the society where all type of people lives. So, change your thinking but always become veg,

it can be restricting when i am out... for instance at a wedding this weekend i got stuck with a potato and veggies (the other people's sides) and was pretty hungry :/ i also had to deal with my bf eating a huge steak. but he eats veg with me 90% of the time so if he wants that, he wants it. but most times i have no problem finding and maaking more than enough foods for me to eat. in fact i eat a lot more variety than i used too.

as far as you not dating people who aren't also veg... that's your decision. you could date people who eat meat too. but it's really up to you. if you make that decision than yes it will restrict you. if you find someone you like who eats meat you can work it out with them so your not constantly exposed to meat. like me and my boyfriend cook veg at home and he really only eats meat when we go out or go to someone's house.

You just have to get to know some vegetarians in your area.
A good way to do this may be to eat regularly at a local vegetarian / vegan restaurant.
I know what you mean about not wanting to touch / smell meat, it grosses me out too.
Although I don't have the problem of not being able to kiss non-vegetarians...
I think you have three choices:
- make new vegetarian friends
- deal with the situation
- loosen up a bit

good luck.

Learn to eat meat once in a while, or get a dog.
