Would you break up with someone if they had opposite political beliefs from you?

[Anonymous]

So, like... say you support Biden and they support Trump or vice versa. Would you break up with them?

yes

no

It depends on the beliefs and how extreme they were, but yes, I would and I have before.

I wouldn't break up with someone just because they're voting for a different presidential candidate than me; that's a bit silly. But I have broken up with a girl once I found out she was a feminist. Though not right away; I talked to her about it first to see if she was just one of those "I just want gender equality, not-a-real-feminist" feminists. But nope; she was a real feminist, right down to the misandry and believing in "Patriarchy" and the "wage gap." I mean, she was only 20 and I was 24, so I could forgive her for being young and naive and probably just brainwashed by her university (otherwise, why would she even be dating a man to begin with?). But I just can't respect stupidity and closed-mindedness. Worse yet; this girl was someone *I* considered super attractive, in my own personal tastes (very tall, thick AF, redhead, blue eyes, big booty, freckles, etc). But I wouldn't and couldn't respect myself by being with such a stupid person whose beliefs clashed with mine in such a way, even if she was a 10/10 in bed.

To recap, there's only a few things I would break up with someone, in regards to beliefs. Being a flat-Earther, supporting p*dophilia, being non-straight or non-monogamous, or being a social justice warrior. Emma was the last two ones.

It would depend on the specific policies we disagreed on. Some disagreements are tolerable, others aren't.

If they don't try to shove it in my face or make me feel stupid for having my own opinions, then it wouldn't be a problem. Politics can be so annoying if both of us are unable to have a civil discussion, and that's why I'd usually avoid talking about it altogether. Never been into politics, never will be.

Depends on the policies and morals. My boyfriend is a lot more left leaning than me (im a moderate) but our morals align and thats why we work. Though with Trump anyone who votes for him is out of my book because he's just too against my morals for my taste

If they were pushing their political views onto me then yeah I would break up with them however I wouldn’t break up with them because I support one person and they support another person that is just a stupid reason to break up with them

I believe if I date an adult then we can both act like adults and agree to disagree.

[leahzrc]

i would want to see no but its a yes if they are specifically trump supporting

[Sangoma]

I'm a democrat and I'm voting for trump.

I can't date a republican voting for trump. Usually bad people.

It is not a valid and sensible ground for breakup. Oh yes! It can be a good ground to leave and go on separate ways.

how does she look like

[888theGreat]

I would never start one with an opposite

[Anonymous]

it's perfectly fine to have your own opinion on issues. that's what makes each of us unique. and as long as you support the person you love that's all that matters whether you believe in it yourself or not just be there to support that person
