Today, after being a vegetarian for 5 years, I found out that my boyfriend of 2 years has secretly been feeding me meat. His reason is that he thinks it's "funny" that I still call myself a vegetarian afterwards. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. Why? Because I became a vegetarian. Apparently, he doesn't believe in "not eating meat." FML
Today, my ex-boyfriend called to tell me that he had always made a point to eat some form of meat before making out with me. He'd known I was a vegetarian since the day we met. FML
Today, I discovered my boyfriend gets lunch every day at Burger King. I confronted him, and he broke up with me. Apparently, he only pretended to be vegan like me to get in my pants, and now the jig is up he dumped me so he can return to having meat at all three meals of the day. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that he would leave me if I didn't seek help for my eating disorder. The eating disorder in question? Vegetarianism. FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house for dinner with his family. His mom cooked up a steak dinner, except that I'm a vegan, but trying to be a good girlfriend, I forced it down. Upon his mother finding out I was a vegan, she called me "disloyal to my beliefs." FML
Today, my boyfriend told me the sauce he made for our dinner that was meat-based, trying to show me how nice meat is and stop me being a weirdo vegan. The reason I’m vegan is because my digestive system can’t handle animal protein. I’m writing this from the bathroom, vomiting myself to death. FML
Today, I fed my husband a vegan beef burger so I could show him that it tastes exactly the same when he didn’t notice. He noticed on the first bite and spat it across the kitchen because he thought the meat had expired before I cooked it, and tasted disgusting. FML
Today, my vegan boyfriend told me that if he were forced to kill either his cat or me, he'd kill me because he "would never kill an animal." FML
Today, I told my boyfriend that I love him. He responded with, "That's nice. You know what I love? Chicken wings. Let's go get some." Apparently, he doesn't remember I'm a vegetarian either. FML
Today, my boyfriend spent half his paycheck on gourmet steaks, bacon, and all sorts of other meat. When I reminded him we were trying to go meatless to help the planet, he said, "Yeah, I'm done with that. The planet can burn." We'd only been vegan three days. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

The only proper response is to abstain from his "meat" from now on.

Dump his ass. That's so disrespectful to your beliefs.

OP I am so sorry. That is an incredibly immature, disrespectful, and asshole thing to do. Because you were ignorant of his behavior, I 100% think you can still consider yourself a vegetarian. What an absolute douche.

Sounds like your boyfriend needs to learn a bit more respect for you OP.

I'll admit, him doing that was wrong. However, to all those saying that it is wrong to kill animals for the meat, that is stupid. I know you could use just for their milk and etc. but killing animals for meat and furs was a necessary part of survival back in past eras, and there is nothing wrong with doing it today. In my opinion, as long as you don't make the race go extinct, keep population in check, do it humanely, and do everything you can with the animal's body, then there isn't anything wrong with it. (this is coming from someone who hunts there own meat most of the time)

Being vegetarian for whatever reason doesn't matter here. The fact that someone close to the OP was disrespectful of her decisions with her own body and that is the only real issue. It's like your spouse putting holes in your condoms or substituting mediation for tic tacs... I'd probably just dump his butt. He doesn't sound as if he can be retrained adequately to keep if he thinks that this kind of thing is funny.
