Since we're on the subject: If you're edge/sober: do you prefer your significant other to be edge/sober? Or vice versa, I suppose, if you're not.

Since we're on the subject: If you're edge/sober: do you prefer your significant other to be edge/sober? Or vice versa, I suppose, if you're not. I went on a few dates with a guy who was and still is very adamant on being edge as well as a strict vegan. While I was completely okay with it, I began to learn that it was all he ever talked about. He in turn also made me feel bad for not being either and turned preachy on me. So it ended. I don't necessarily prefer my significant other to be a drinker or a meat eater, but it does make things a bit easier. My family brought me up the "European" way where I would have a glass of wine at dinner. Alcohol is something to be enjoyed, not abused. And being born and raised in North Jersey, I am wired to crave pastrami/prosciutto. And hot dogs with mustard and sauerkraut. Ah I'm hungryyyyy.

While I'll never not date someone because they're edge, I'd prefer them to be not-edge. Maybe I'm jaded because most "edge" kids in my area are very extreme about it, and, as you said, only ever talk about being edge, and make a big deal out of it. As far as vegan goes, my last boyfriend was vegan when we first started dating. It was rough, trying to find somewhere for us both to go out to eat, etc. He ended up going back to vegetarian because he couldn't afford being vegan at the time, and that made it easier. I was vegetarian for 6 and a half years, and thats definitely something I can handle.

I'm not, as I do have a drink once awhile, but I try to consciously live a clean life.

I would prefer my significant other not to eat meat... but even though I drink I seem to see "edge" boys.

I was vegetarian for 6 and a half years, and thats definitely something I can handle. I guess it depends on location too. I lived in Philadelphia for 3 years, and it was ridiculously easy to eat vegan/veg because there were so many options. And delicious ones. But then out in Central/Western PA, you're scraping the bottom of the barrel for those options. But it's also great because you have so many better options when it comes to meat. My town of about 5,000 has two local butchers with each their own free ranging livestock. Not animals loaded in cages. But I must say, I am quite blown away when someone is so passionate about their lifestyle choices. It takes determination. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is EDGE & VEG BOYS YOU'RE OK WITH ME LULZ.
