Most Vegans would prefer they date someone else who is Vegan, or at the very least open to becoming Vegan. This makes sense; Unlike how it is in the movies, opposites do not attract, and the way to having a long, healthy, happy relationship hinges on having shared values.
But alas, given that Vegans have always made up a very small percentage of the population, finding a Vegan partner is fairly difficult, though not impossible.
Dating Non-Vegans
Dating a Non-Vegan creates a huge risk of you giving up on Veganism. This is a result of cognitive dissonance.
In most plantonic, friendly relationships, it's easy to be friends with meat-eaters, since just because your friends may have flaws, you understand that this doesn't make them bad people necessarily, not to mention that unless they're your roommates you don't have to live in the same place as them. The same cannot be said for romantic relationships.
When it comes to more romantic relationships, that type of rationality of understanding character flaws dissipates, and you are more susceptible to looking over flaws you would otherwise find a nuisance.
