Me: literally wishing that everyone on this planet were vegan so that animals were treated better, I'd have more people to relate to, and I'd have more people that I'd actually feel comfortable with dating

Veganism makes me feel more of a weirdo, an outcast, and reserved actually.

    When you see someone make a sacrifice purely for the benefit of others that you aren't willing to make, it casts doubt on your self-image as a good person. Your choices are to step up to their level, admit your shortcoming and live with it, or come up with justifications (however paper-thin) to think that their decision is actually vain and selfish.
