She won't dump me and if she does she's not very bright

See, I can't imagine being in an intimate relationship (for two years like the OP) and having values that are all that much different. The parties can reflect values, but not always. And just because a person prefers right to left doesn't mean they necessarily have different values, they might just have different approaches to address a similar value.

I dunno. I think Bernie and Trump are both just as outrageous. Can't see myself voting for Hilary either so it's going to be an interesting election for me.

As for the OP, if it's real (and I doubt it is) I could not be in a relationship with someone that had a 180 degree difference in political views. You probably should have spent more time getting to know her.

For the most part I think breaking it off because of political affiliation is just an excuse and that there must be a more underlying issue. Well that's just my opinion about it anyways. I've known lots of couples who had a very strong bond/relationship regardless because one was "this" and the other was "that". Now if the person involved starts treating you differently and/or unfairly because of it, well that's a problem then.

So you guys will not be able to have differing opinions in your relationship?


Please keep this about the relationship and NOT about politics.

Better Stump the Trump

OP it's just politics is that all? Is there anything else bad in the relationship?

If political differences can result in a break up or divorce, then maturity is something to be questioned.
