Aaaaaaah, now I got it! I'm sorry!

I thought cdn2wheeler meant that my decision was less about not cooking meat and more about just changing my mind. That pushed my buttons, yes, because I had explained how much cooking meat or not means to me and then he comes and says "it's not really about the meat, it's just that you don't want to cook anymore".

But now I see that he probably meant that my bf being angry is less about not cooking meat and more about me changing my mind after a while. Is it what you meant cdn2wheeler? I didn't get it. Please read my previous post in that light. I'm so sorry for being such an impulsive person...!

Yes you're right Angela, it would mean a lot to me if he could just aknowledge my values and following decisions. But he doesn't accept my values as equally worthy and he condemns my decisions (not only this one) and my whole lifestyle too. Everything I do is not orderly in his opinion.

My opinion is that it's not a problem to be different, to have different values and different lifestyles. What makes it really difficult is that he thinks his values are more worthy than mine. But I'm sure we could find a solution for everything. As I said, I could cook vegan and he cooks meat, no problem.

Just like ReallyGoodIdeas, she's found an agreement with her husband too. In their case it's working even with different values. That's great for you, Hazel. I'm glad for you And thanks for your kind words
