i completely completely completely understand this. ideally, if someone makes me dinner, and there's only meat, i will even eat it (but this is a BIG, HARD, step, because just bein in the presence of meat makes me feel like i'm trippin or walkin into a jaws movie or somethin)...
cuz there's always been the gift issue; someone buys you a leather somethin or another (i always just give them away right away. there is ALWAYS someone around drooling over the leather-not that i get so many leather gifts, heh heh)
and then people tease me about a pair of leather shoes that i've had for about 12-13 years (i've been veg for 10)...
