Hi guys! It's been a while since i came here the last time. In those days, I really made some progress on becoming vegan. Unfortunately, some of those efforts came to nothing. My family still forces me to eat meat and animal products (don't say that they can't force me to eat, because they really can; they put meat and other animal products in every meal), despite that, I try to avoid all the animal products I am able to.
It is hard to be a vegan here in Portugal, and to make things worse, not even my girlfriend supports me. It is hard, really hard. I don't know what I can do more so they understand that it is my life...
My dream is to become Vegan, and help all the animals i can. After I graduate from university on Biology and Geology, I would like to join the sea shepherd crew. All this things join together on two groups against me. My girlfriend and my family.
Right now, I really believe I can only become vegan in a couple years, when I get out of home, (making some progresses now, and stopping eating animal products as I am able to) and I hope I can make my girlfriend understand that it is the way i want to live, causing as less damage in this world as i can. We argued about bull fightings, because she loves it and I hate it, because the animals suffer and think just like us.
Well, sorry for the big text, but I only needed to talk to someone that understands me. Can you guys please give me some advices?
Everytime I eat animal products, it hurts my feelings, and I cry when no one is looking! Please, help me guys.
