Ladies- Is it a turnoff that the guy does not drink and is a Vegan?

I've been raised a vegan(dont see a point in changing this as I've been like this forever) and i dont drink aswell let alone do drugs or smoke.Are these 2 factors turnoffs?

I can't see either being an issue as long as you respect that a girl may want to eat meat around you
I'm a meat lover but I don't like drinking (I'm a terrible lightweight and get headaches after about five minutes of drinking). I would never do drugs or smoke..

Soo if I could eat my burgers and you could have your zucchini noodles, dyou think a June wedding would be nice?
Very mature of you ..

I'm a big foodie and on dates I love trying out different places to eat. Whilst going to a vegan place one time may be fun, I'd wanna go to steakhouses, meat places etc. Plus it's just a turn off for me seeing a guy watch over what they eat like that

If a girl is turned off by you being vegan she is stupid and needs to grow up. I have been vegan for 5 years and don't care less what people think of me. If a girl has a problem with it, she is the wrong girl for me. I find most girls are very accepting and it is a conversation opener. Also I am vegan for ethical reasons, and many girls like the fact that I have a moral conscience.

I think you're right. Thats cool man glad that there are other people like me in this world. Dude I've never tasted meat or drunk Alcohol etc and i dont ever want to too. Doing that for a girl would be pretty pathetic for me i think so you're definitely right i guess. We'll it hasn't been a conversation starter for me yet tho.I can for some reason not stop myself imagining you being
like Hey girl I'm a vegan gimme your phone number LoL.
Thats nice man I'm a vegan for Ethical as well as sort of religious reasons also. I would love a girl that would appreciate me for it too:yes:

Thats the great thing about internet dating these days. You can just select people who are veggie or vegan and cut out all the bull. There are literally millions of people who would find veganism a turn on, so don't even bother wasting time or money on the others.

Another idea do you ever go to the vegan fairs, as they sometimes have speed dating there. Plus there are many more women who are vegan than men, so you are on a winner. Personally I would never go to a steak house with anyone, I just find the places disgusting.

Which websites do you think i should try bruh?

This is the first time I've encountered a vegan guy, I swear you're like unicorns :colondollar: some girls might think you're compromising their dinner date options, or making them look "fat" in comparing their steak to your veggie burger, but honestly with the availability of vegan options and the rising trend of plant-based lifestyles, even steakhouses may be accommodating! Also, I work behind a bar so I've seen many guys out there who don't drink, which is why things like Becks Blue were invented (alchohol free beer stuff), but as long as the girl doesn't get too hammered and the guy respects boundaries, you're good to go! (marry me)

Any dating websites really. There are a few specialized ones like veggieromance but other general ones are good such as okaycupid or even POF. Also go onto here and look at the vegan fairs. They often have after parties, or just start talking to people there
