The only bad thing about being veg

I’ve been vegetarian for the past two years and I must say I’m very happy about it and I’m absolutely regret-free.

This post isn’t about why I decided to become veg — don’t be afraid, I’ll write about that, too ;) –, instead it’s about the single bad thing about being veg.

When someone invites me to have lunch/dinner at her/his house, I have to make sure that person knows I’m veg.
That person, most of the times, will then be a bit upset — not in a bad way ;) — because for a non-veg it’s sometimes difficult to come up with a meat-free meal, or she/he will need to cook a separate meal for me if it’s a lunch/dinner with a few people.

As you can see, it’s not really a problem with being veg, it’s more of an issue of politeness: I feel bad about giving someone some headaches simply because she/he wanted to be nice and invited me to eat at her/his place.

So, are there any vegetarians between people reading this blog? How do you cope with this problem?
