I don’t care about your actual policy registration but if you’re voting for republicans in the 2020s we’re not gonna be anything.

People who vote yes probably don’t care about politics too much. How can you date someone with such differing views?

i’m a female, so i’ve experienced quite a decent amount of men who are… let’s just say watching Benny Blanco talk about his relationship with Selena Gomez was very eye opening to what i could have and i’d really prefer that over the options i have been presented with. a blanket “no” is easier, but it really does depend on various factors and their entire beliefs which is individualized

I guarantee you a huge majority of the no’s will be democrat

As a dude, really depends on how Republican they are. If they are moderate and can see why I feel certain ways about certain policies than I don’t see why not. But if they are MAGA/far right I don’t see us being compatible.

Eh. I’m strongly on one side of the aisle and I can definitely date someone on the other side. Politics doesn’t have to be your entire life.

if you can compromise on your morals/never had much of a reason to believe what you do then sure. it's very clear what your views are.

This only works if you’re not too much into politics. Whoever you vote for tells a lot about who you are and what you believe in. Republicans and democrats can be very different

However, I do think you can be friends with people on the other side of the political spectrum

Ok. Well nobody forcing you to date someone opposite. You’re free to date who you want. I’m just offering you some perspective.

Of course, just don’t think it works out imo

I agree it becomes more of a challenge when you face the bigger challenges later on like deciding when to start a family, how to spend your money, etc.
