Would end a relationship if partner voted for Trump?

Not looking to start fights so no fighting in the comments, I would end the relationship because at this point for me it’s not about having different political views.

Not starting an argument, just explaining my point of view. As a black bisexual woman, i feel like Trump goes against everything I stand for and just against me in general. I feel like if my partner voted for him, deep down he wouldn’t care about my rights and I don’t want to be in a relationship with someone like that. That’s just how I feel about it!

Seems unhinged & irrational! I guess I’m just more accepting & not this extreme! Bt politics are like religion. My Husband & I just so happen to come from 2 different cultures, races and religious backgrounds. And we have even voted differently in elections bt none of that matters when it comes to “our relationship” with each other

gotta look at it like this, it shouldn't matter which president is elected, it's just like another "hardship" you have to go thru as a couple, having different views doesn't define your relationship, nor did it define the relationship you guys got into to begin with. My man and i voted for the same person, however, in a relationship, if there's mention of having different views, i don't feel it should be talked about after that, because then question like this come up, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but whoever is president/whoever was president when you got together, didn't make you guys love eachother.

My political views are based on my morals & world views. I absolutely could not be in a relationship with someone who voted for Trump. To be honest I wouldn’t even be close friends with someone who supported him

Yes because I have morals

My grandma and grandpa are different parties and they have been together over 50 years.

My partner didn’t vote this year. He usually does but his job kept him from voting

I never voted a day in my life

We’ve been together 20 years 🤷🏼‍♀️😆

I love this! 🩵

his…. Job??? Let him know about absentee ballots next time

Avatar

I don’t think I’d go off and divorce him over it but it would probably cause a riff. One reason we are together is because we want similar things in life and with raising our children and his views don’t really align with that. The clear shift in support would definitely spark some conversations lol

Avatar

I just assumed it was his job. He probably just didn’t want to. I never asked. I honestly don’t care 🤷🏼‍♀️

Avatar

All i'm saying is that two people create a bond and love on many different things, usually not politics. So, if a differing vote could cause a big enough riff where you feel the need to separate and split your family. Your bond was never that strong in the first place, and there were or are different reasons you'd want to leave the relationship.

It depends on how they are I’d assume because my fiancé is a trump supporter but I also think he hasn’t read into the project 2025 all that trump wants to do. Aaand he doesn’t treat women or think of them shitty if he did that’d be a big factor

No woman wants a woman hater cus what

Nope we both voted for trump

Avatar

Surely you would know eachothers beliefs/political beliefs before even getting together?

Avatar

finally someone having some common sense 😜

Lmao 🤣

Avatar

yes. we would have completely different ideals and morals. we wouldn’t be compatible

Avatar

it’s more than that. it’s your value as a human that are different at the core

Avatar

We didnt vote and tbh i wish i had after hearing all the bs that trump plans to enact... our rights are slowly being stripped as women and if my fiance was dumb enough to vote for a man who wants to bring harm to not only my well being but our daughter.... then hell yeah id end the relationship... I feel what is happening when woman are for trump is that they are only seeing and hearing what the media has fed to us. And i was also included until the truths were revealed to me.

Avatar

It's not just politics, this is morals. I would never date/marry a Trump supporter. Any man that votes for him, doesn't respect women. I want a husband to respect me and I'm happy I do.

Avatar

Do you feel those differences impact the trust, values, and connection you share? If YES end the relationship. I could never be with someone who supported Harris either! Core values in a relationship should be very clear before committing to it.

Avatar

I definitely would since then we would have vastly different morals and beliefs.
My hubby has never been political but he made sure he voted this year "for his daughter and wife". He's really changed his tune now that we have a daughter and I didn't know I could love him more. He's the best dad.

People are entitled to their own feelings, opinions and thoughts.. being with someone who has different views and especially politics should not matter one bit imo.. love is love and if your adult enough you can over look some of those things.

Wtf

Avatar

If he treats me right and I love him then it shouldn't matter about his political views..as long as he doesn't try to convert me

Avatar

Nope. In my vows we said "in sickness and in health" so I'd forgive him if he had a moment of ill mindset in voting for Trump 😉

Avatar

To be honest, the only people that should be marrying people that are anti-LGBTQ rights, anti-science, anti-common sense gun legislation , anti-health insurance access for all, etc. are people that are themselves anti-LGBTQ rights, anti-science, anti-common sense gun legislation, anti-health insurance access for all, Etc. if you are not a Trump supporter, I don’t know what universe you could justify marrying somebody with such fastly different values. That would be entirely shocking to me.

Avatar

We neither one vote but if we did we wouldn't care who the other person would vote for.

Avatar

We both did.

Avatar

If we were American and he voted Trump we would be over. It would mean our values are completely different and I couldn't stay with someone like that.

Avatar

People seem to be completely missing that voting for Trump speaks VOLUMES as to who are as a person and what you value so yes 100% could never be with a Trump supporter

Avatar

I’m Australian so neither of us can vote anyway but if my reproductive rights were up for debate and my husband wasn’t actively fighting against it with me we’d be done

Avatar

Where i used to live we separated politics and your life. We discussed nothing politics related to anyone because thats their opinion and it wont change what you say so we keep that private. I was so surprised that people would talk politics over dinner and such over here in america 😭

Maternity leave Employment rights?

I have 6 weeks left of work and they have completely changed my job spec including my job title and all my responsibilities, they have done this ahead of advertising my maternity cover apparently to fit business needs which I am fine with but i explained as long as it doesn’t effect me before I go. They have now turned round and said they want me to do the training for it before I go and want me to sign a variation in contract asap. Are they allowed to do this? I thought you had the right to come back to the same job within 26 weeks and I haven’t even left yet and they’re changing it? I was going to see what the job was when I got back and go from there but now they’re wanting me to sign this change in contract before I go I don’t know what to do, do I have to sign it ?

Dads app!

I have been using this app for the last 6 months ish and found it brilliant for advice and making friends. My partner though doesn’t have any male friends who are dads and I was wondering if anybody knows of anything similar to this app that he could use to find some other dads local to us, to chat to/get advice/make friends etc. anyone any ideas? ☺️
