When the One You Love Doesn’t Love Guns

I haven’t dated anyone who hated guns and I don’t recommend that you do either. However, sometimes stuff happens. Maybe you got into guns later in life or you happened to fall head over heals for a guy or a gal where your shooting or hunting hobby just never came up (I’m not exactly sure how that happens, though). Regardless, you think it is about time you introduce guns to your loved one or guide your significant other learn to love guns as much as you do.
