There are people in my life, friends, who periodically "act against" my vegan lifestyle choice. Is it really deliberate ?
Example #1: While at a friend's home helping out with a sewing project, lunchtime rolls around. "I am making us some soup. I bought organic chicken broth. You'll eat that, right ? I made sure to get organic." (What part of no animal products is unclear !?!?) So yes - I eat the soup - reluctantly - all the while my innards cringing.
Example #2: I arrive at the office or return home only to find a dish of food laden with eggs or cheese or whipped cream or other 'forbidden' ingredient. The attached note " I didn't want to waste this - I cooked too much of it at home last night." (Guilt) In many of these instances, I can discard the offensive fare un-noticed.
Maybe sabotage is too strong of an 'accusation.' However, these examples are quite similar to what is referred to as 'diet sabotage' by a friend when someone is attempting to lose weight.
I may be off base, but just a thought ...
