Referendum: you and partner vote differently?

[cappy123]

DH and I voted differently in the historic referendum. It felt odd on Friday, v sombre mood at work and later at home. I don't think either of us was ever going to 'celebrate' coz we knew it'd be close. Whilst DH was always sure which way he'd go, I decided about 2 days before. We both stand by our decisions. Any other mixed couple voters out there?

I'm interested because I've seen some harsh comments against Leavers and thought how have people handled this under their own roofs if they differ from their loved ones.

We voted differently, I felt that there were really good arguments on both sides TBH, but in the end I voted IN for economic reasons.

I was initially a bit shocked by the result, but I do think in the long run that everything will be okay and I'm quite glad to be out of a corrupt organisation like the EU. I have to say though I'm secretly hoping that the EU will now implode and will have to go back to being simply a trading organisation (as per the original brief), without all the rest of the crap that goes with it.

Things will be fine eventually.

My EU DH wanted me to vote leave

I voted remain!

Yes. We voted differently. No it hasn't affected our relationship at all even short term. We've just got on with things.
