Very sad..

My husband threatened to leave me just because I am vegan and he doesn't like my lifestyle.  He said to me shame u don't eat meat anymore.  I said why and he said I would have more than willingly bought u that whopperito because u would have loved that don't deny yourself. I told him  I'm not denying anyone.  I went vegan for health reasons and for ethical reasons and I don't want to eat meat period. He said to me well go find another husband then.  It hurt so bad.  I wish he could just support me because it's what I want to do instead of ridicule me because he doesn't understand and because it's not something that he wants to do or believes in.  I can't even touch steak without making faces and apologizing to the steak for cutting it up making myself sound like I'm a freaking crazy person but I'm not. I love him so much I just thought he would have been a little more compassionate than that and yeah when I ate meat I might have loved it but just cos I loved it before doesn't mean I'm denying myself.. And it doesn't mean I'm pretending to not like meat.  The smell of cooking ground beef makes me gag.  I always ate more vegetables than meat when I did and milk gives me stomach pains so I took it out of my system. 
I don't want to have a divorce but it hurt when he said that to me.  It's my life! I don't tell him he needs to give up meat and force him to be vegan when I know he doesn't want to.  I'll try to tell him to cut down the amount he eats and eat more veggies but I wouldn't force anyone to stop doing what makes them happy. He just doesn't understand and now I feel that 7 years was just thrown away and he just married me for nothing.  That he doesn't really love me and he probably never did :( thats what I get from his actions. I just don't get men sometimes.  I do love him and I always will.  He just has to realize that words to hurt me and that he can't just say what he wants even as a joke because it's not funny.. And I take things seriously and am a very emotional person.
