I've NC.
Me and DP have broadly the same outlook on life and we're really happy together.
But, we have some fundamentally different political views. For example:
He's voting Tory in the GE. I won't be voting Tory.
He's said he'd have voted Trump if we lived in the US. I physically couldn't bring myself to do it.
He's in favour of a three-strikes and the death penalty approach to justice. I'm not necessarily against this in principle but I think such ideas rest on an assumption of equality of opportunity etc.
He has issues with 'scumbags' who don't work and rely on benefits. I have issues with complete cockwomble cunt billionaires who don't work and get rich off the labour of the working classes and pay no tax. These people don't bother him particularly as they don't affect his everyday life (apparently).
Anyway, I don't want to debate the rights/wrongs of each of our perspectives. My question is how do you deal with this? We try not talking politics but it's unavoidable. Or we talk politics then get annoyed at each other. Or we talk politics then agree to disagree and both end up frustrated.
If you're in this kind of relationship, tell me how you cope!!!
