12 Things You Will Relate To If You're a Vegetarian

This time last year, I was in the process of transitioning into a vegetarian. It was never something I thought I would do, but after a year, I can't even remember what meat tastes like. Vegetarianism has become a big part of who I am this year; it was actually a very easy switch for me, and I'm glad I decided to do it. Though, if there is one thing I can say I learned in the past year, it would be that not everyone you talk to will understand this. I have received various questions about my diet change over the past year, and if you're also a vegetarian, you will definitely know what I'm talking about. That is why, in honor of my one year veggie-versary, I have compiled a list of things you will relate to if you're a vegetarian/ vegan.


1. Everyone asking if you eat grass or rabbit food

2. People being overly concerned about your protein intake

3. Being asked if you still eat fish

4. When people say you murder plants because they're living things too

5. Being told you have to eat meat because God put animals here for that purpose

6. People always asking, "Is it OK if I eat in front of you?"

7. When you tell someone you don't eat meat and they can't comprehend how you've lived so long without bacon

8. Everyone assuming that your diet is unhealthy

9. The constant jokes you receive about tofu

10. Your parents no longer having any idea how to feed you

11. Being bombarded with questions when someone lets it slip that you don't eat meat

12. People asking when your diet is going to end because they assume it's just a phase

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
