My friends are pretty cool and everything except when it comes to me being a vegetarian.... they call me a vegit (i can take that easily) but then they always harrass me at lunch by doin things like throwing pieces of meat at me and my food or shoving meat into my food while im gone and it makes me really mad and dissapointed in them.... and im not tryin to whine about my problems i just wanted to tell somebody and you guys seemed like the ones i could relate to the most so thanx for listenin
Dude, if my friends did that to me I would punch them in the face...that's just not cool at all and you need to let them know how much it really bothers you ASAP!
thats disgusting, if they can't leave you alone then they have serious problems... you really do need to let them know how much it pisses you off when they act like that, if it was me i'd be ultra pissed!
Dude that sucks. Yeah tell them how much it pisses you off and if they dont stop then i'd go find some other people to eat with or eat by yourself or something. I know thats a crappy solution cause NOT hangin with your buds sucks, but still friends should respect each other. Peace
You need to talk to them. True friends don't intentially try to hurt you. It is possible they think of this as harmless 'joking around', and you need to let them know that you are not cool with this and you do not find it funny. You don't have to yell at them or take a fit or anything, but you do need to be firm and let them know that this is NOT your idea of a joke. If you talk to them and they continue, it may be best to find another place to sit during lunch for awhile.
I hate it when people shove meat in your face. I think everyone who is/has ever been a vegetarian has had that happen to them.
yeah, (hopefully) they think they are just being really witty and don't realise that not only is it unoriginal, it's so not funny and/or cool. maybe if you let them know that you are not just veggie for shits and giggles, that it's a life decison that you take seriously they might get the message. Good luck and I hope things turn out ok
its hard to face that kind of crap from those close to you. my cousin's fiance shoved a raw hotdog in my face and i was the one told i was being too sensitive. stay strong. i wish there was a way to just make people be more accpeting of their vegetarian freinds and family.
My, what odd behaviour for a friends to do. Odd for strangers too. Why not hang out with decent folks who let you eat your own food?
HAHA!!! That's one of the best things I've heard!!!! I, personaly, have no trouble with non vegitarian friends. Only with my brother-in-law, who always tries to question me and convice me to eat meat....my parants are supportive, and many other's respect that,maybe even admire, but think it's impossible for them to stop eating meat. I never got meat shoved in my face before, but if one would, I'd tell them that it's not cool and they should stop, they'd probably say I'm to sensitive...if yes, I'd start saying something like:"You don't know what happens to the animals before they get slaughtered....", they'd probably say something about the wonderful farms the animals lived in, how great they were takin' care of, and crap like that. If you keep on drawing it out to the point they asked you even after you said something like " you don't wanna know..." ,-lecture them about how the animals are mistreated, if they don't care, END THE FRIENDSHIP, since they don't deserve a great friend like you. There, that's about it with the psychology lesson, session over I never had trouble with people like that, I don't know any BEEP like that. But the above plan is fool proof! The thing with THROWING the meat REALLY pisses me off!!!!! I wish I could go there and kick their asses around the fuckin' cafetieria for that !!!:$
Totally agree with Ryupower. Never happened to me, but then I tend to keep company with grown ups... no wait my brother tried, he's a kid though. Don't think there's any coincidences there.
wow well after i wrote the original message i went to a party where they pinned me down and tried to make me eat a raw hot dog but the y couldnt get my mouth open so they rubbed it all over my face.... and i actually tasted it from the juice bein on my lips, i ended up kicking on of the kids off grabbed the hotdog and shoved it in his face and ran for it. I didnt want to get them back anymore than that because i didnt want to hurt them so i just kept my distance.Then they chucked a couple hot dogs at my face..... i went crazy and tackled one of them started pounded on his head and jumped on him a couple times and then later one of my GOOD friends was wrestling one of the kids that chucked a hot dog at me and i came up behind the evil one and plugged his nose and put my hand over his mouth..... then he started crying and they kept away from me for the rest of the party. But wut really pissed me off was later i was just sitting around i heard one of them say "i don't get it we never hurt him" that made me sad and mad and stuff but i didnt do anythin... the next time i went to school with them one of them apoligized and said he wouldnt do anthing to insult me about vegetarianism again. so yeah i really feel bad about being so violent but they just pissed me off so bad... o by the way, none of the other kids have done anything involving meat to me again, including comments
omg, dude, that is just crazy....yeah, maybe you should try and find some people you can actually call 'friends' rather the selfish pricks you have been hanging with. (or just rub semen in their faces - because obivoiusly rubbing something on someone's lips is a delightful way to act )
the whole thing sounds just awful. i';ve been in similiar situations and people just don't understand how hurtful and discusting they can be.
