I am liberal, but not super politically motivated. I used to be when I was younger. But over time I have become less and less politically motivated. I have to compartmentalize about politics to an extreme degree for my job. Most of the time, I actually hate talking about politics. My 2 best friends are conservatives (single issue catholic voters - abortion). My dad and brother are conservative (economically speaking, but hate Trump and the current state of the Republican Party). With this in mind, I am definitely fully able to separate politics from my love of other people. But at the end of the day, I am liberal. And I’ve never dated a conservative before.
Anyways, I went out with a guy I met on OLD who was really fantastic in every way. We really clicked, the conversation flowed, and we had an amazing first kiss. His dating profile didn’t have a political affiliation listed. I later googled him and he is a registered Republican. And idk what to do.
Should I bring it up with him? What would I even ask him? Because like, if he’s a sort of backseat Republican who doesn’t really vote and doesn’t allow politics to play a huge role in his life, I think I can deal with that. But if he’s like...someone who would have been at the Jan. 6 riots type of Republican, then I can’t deal with that.
