My girl friend is a vegetarian, she has been for three years.I met her two years ago and we started dating 13 mouths ago.I love her!
for our 1st year anniverty, i told her that i would cook,i told her that i would make every thing vegetarian friendly????
i made lagsana... and i forgot and i added chicken broth... when she got to my house she told me that it smelled like chicken.. and thats when i relized that i had cooked with chicken. i lied and said that i had eaten chicken that morning, she ate the lagsana, and then she started to voimt, she said that the lagsana tasted like chicken, i kept with the lie, not wanting to admit that i had added chicken broth!!!
She went to the kithen, and found smeeled the pot of lagsana!!!
he got made that i had feed her chicken broth....I don't know why she is so angery it wasn't the meat she was eating she only ate the broth.
Is she right or I'm?

She is right.. u had no right to feed you girlfriend broth... it isn't that she didnt eat the animal flesh but she ate the falvor.....you should have told her the truth, she would have understod and the you guess could have done someting else, she would have understod that you are not use to cooking for a vege and you made a mistke by adding the broth, but by lieing to her and lieing about something that she probly feels strong about is wrong.. and realtionship is based in trust and you ahve broken that and i would forgive anyone that did that to me!!!!
If you had forgotten and then relaized after i would say that it wasnt your fault, but no you new and that is wrong. YOu have gave her pain, she choose not to eat meat for a areason and now she feels like she killed the animal. vegetarians are people that feel stronly about animals... they are not the type of peopel that complien about animals being killed to feed them and the go out and eat them~
If i was you i would write senseier lettter about why you did that vishes thing to her, and they i would apploigze, i don't know if that is going to slove the problem!!!! she might not forgive you... and quite honesty i wouldn't either!!!!

It was very nice and thoughtful that you wanted to cook for your girlfriend for you 1 year anniversary. I really applaud you for your compassion. There are different levels of vegetarianism....your girlfriend obviously doesn't not like to consume animals or any product that is make by killing animals. Your mistake was just that...a mistake...you should truly apologize and tell her how you really wanted to make your one year anniversary special.
It would probably be good to have a sincere discussion with her about exactly what she does not want to eat. Just be polite and be like I love you and want to understand what you believe so that I do not offend you....and in the future look up recipes on the Internet for vegetarians & vegans...and make sure the ingrediants are ok with her beliefs.
I aplaud you again for trying to be loving and thoughful. Just be honest in the future. You have nothing to lose by being honest...but you have everything to lose by lying.

You violated her personal beliefs and her trust in you. Chicken broth comes from chicken and you knew that or else you wouldn't have lied to her. How would you feel if someone snuck human flesh into your food? That's how a lot of vegetarian feel about eating dead animals! If I were her our relationship would most likely be over, so you have a lot of damage to repair.

You should not have lied. She should not have snooped, but my guess is she was so certain you lied, she was hell-bent on proving you not only fed her chicken broth, but lied about it.
If you really love her, you have some big apologogies to make. Now she's bound the be thinking that not only do you not respect her, you'll lie to her. Who needs a man like that?

She is right,it is extracted from the chicken meat.She doesn't eat any animal products at all,it is just like how mcdonald's sprays their fry's with beef,it made people who ate the fry's mad because they never said they sprayed it with beef.You should go vegan for a month to make it up for her.

Just tell her the truth, and apologize. Tell her what she means to you.
People have their own levels of how serious they are about it. IT was a mistake not to tell her in the first place. That can't be fixed. Just respect her decisions, accept the consequences of your mistakes, and learn from them.
Who is "right" is not the issue here. You have to get over what happened and try to patch as much as you can.

I can understand your honest mistake but it's altogether different when you lie... and not just lie, but lie over and over and over.
I'ts probably come down to whether or not she can trust you.
Hon, if you don't want to lose her, beg for mercy NOW. Tell her you understand you made a mistake in your judgement and that you need to EARN her trust, and don't lie to her again.
Believe it or not, truth and honesty will set you free. Sure... you might lose friends who want to remain with their heads buried in the sand, but you WILL be a better person in the long run.

First you need to define vegetarian. A Vegetarian just doesn't eat meat, however will eat animal bi-products. A Vegan doesn't eat/wear/buy/etc. anything that to do with any animals whatsoever. If she is a vegetarian, it should have been no big deal, if she's VEGAN, then yeah, it's a big deal, and she's right. Sorry guy.

I think you are in the right. I know vegetarians have the right to not eat meat and such, but it was only chicken broth, which won't kill her, and also she had a man cook, so what did she expect, lol this is why my wife doesn't let me cook anymore. :) Good Luck
