Perhaps you might not know but I'm vegetarian, I've been one for nearly 10 years now. It was an unusual transition to. In my teens I found that slowly lacked interest in in certain meat products. Eventually I realized on my 18th birthday that I had enough of standing on the fence and I decided to go full on vegetarian and now it's been 10 years since I last tasted meat. I personally don't have any issues with what other people eat, in fact my girlfriend isn't vegetarian and I'm completely ok with it. Everyone has a choice on how they do things in life and this why I can't understand why some people force the beliefs on others. Some people try convince me to go back to eating meat , whilst I know many who tried to convince others to convert to vegetarianism or veganism. I just believe everyone should be themselves.
Would change your diet if someone tried to convince you?

@JimBo452020 I do of course. Some days I try to restrict myself, but it hardly works.

I read your short bio on myLot when I first started talking with you so knew your age and that you were a vegetarian. Most people on myLot won't bother reading the bios, though.
I am a carnivore... I eat meat at almost every meal. My daughter, Pretty, eats a lot of vegetarian meals but does still eat meat if I make something she really likes. She's always inviting me to eat what she cooks and I will once in a while... It just depends on what she makes and whether I feel like fixing something for myself right then or not.
We never try to make the other one eat what we like if they don't want it.

@JimBo452020 I have never been sick during all my life. This means that my diet is correct for me.

No, I don't eat according to others wish. I become a vegetarian in summer because its very hot in India. I started taking non-veg once rainy season sets in and it cools down.

@JimBo452020 That's true. I arrange my diet according to my health.

@JimBo452020 I believe eating greens comes with age. I hate it when I was younger.

I like to eat vegetarian food instead of meat several times a week. I think it helps with a healthy balanced diet and makes meals more interesting.

The only way I would change my diet to being a pescetarian, vegetarian, or vegan, would be if my doctor told me my life depended on it. I don't believe I could manage being a vegan though. I mean, you even have to be careful what your beans are cooked in at a restaurant. That's too involved for me. I do believe I could easily be a peace thrown though. I'm not a big red meat eater.

Well I agree everyone has a choice .
I eat meat once in two or three months and my friends find it weird or I do know what to call it , they say that I should eat atleast once a week , well they don't understand my choice and I really don't like when they force it.

Well!!! Not really because people want me to change, may be I want to... I have been that way for years, When I was kid, I was crazy meat fan, then there comes time I gave up meat. I don't judge choices, but I would love someone who is vegetarian
