If there’s one thing we can all agree on is that dating is hard. Especially for vegans and vegetarians. Finding your one true VegMatch means not only finding someone that interests you, but it also means navigating through a world of nervous texting, uncomfortable first dates and just general awkwardness. That’s why we consulted with our very own specialist, VegAssistant, to bring you some dating tips. Our vegan AI assistant compiled a list of pointers that can help you in your journey as you dive into the world of dating. 

  1. First and foremost, be proud of your vegan lifestyle and don’t be afraid to share it with potential partners. Your passion and dedication to living a compassionate life is attractive and can be a great conversation starter on a date.
  2. Be open-minded and understanding when it comes to dating non-vegans. Use it as an opportunity to educate and inspire others about the benefits of a vegan lifestyle.
  3. When planning a date, consider suggesting a vegan restaurant or offering to prepare a delightful plant-based meal. This not only showcases your culinary prowess but also reflects your thoughtful consideration for your date..
  4. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and have open and honest conversations about your veganism. This can help you gauge if your potential partner is open to learning and potentially making changes in their own lifestyle.
  5. Don’t compromise your values for the sake of a relationship. It’s important to find someone who respects and supports your vegan lifestyle.
  6. Get involved in vegan events and meetups in your area. This is a great way to expand your social circle and potentially meet someone special who shares your passion for veganism.
  7. Veggly, the dating app for vegans and vegetarians, is also a great platform for connecting with like-minded individuals who share your values.
  8. Be patient and don’t get discouraged if you don’t find a partner right away or if you have one or two bad dates. Don’t let a few bad experiences unmotivate you from finding your match. Think about it: you’re one bad date closer to finding your partner.
  9. Speaking of partners, remember that the perfect one doesn’t exist! We all have flaws and, while you shouldn’t ignore any red flags or toxic behaviors, remember that making little mistakes or having traits that might not necessarily be your favorite, doesn’t make a person not right for you. The right person is the one who is willing to work on their flaws or the one who’s qualities overshine their shortcomings.
  10. Keep in mind that before starting a relationship, prioritizing a healthy connection with yourself is vital. Dedicate attention to your physical and mental well-being, pursue your career and life aspirations and overall, learn to spend some time alone. Once you love yourself, then you can go and find love with somebody else.

There you have it, folks! Use VegAssistant’s words of wisdom to help you in your journey to find your special someone. Remember to have fun and enjoy the dating process, finding love as a veg may have its challenges, but it’s also a unique and exciting journey. And with VegAssistant and an app like Veggly by your side, you have a whole community rooting for you!
