Respect their choice or your relationship is doomed if you're already thinking of pushing your SO to get it.

To be fair, a lot of people would ridicule the decision not to vax, so your family is not alone in their judgement.
Rising Star
there’s only one way to deal with it, either you respect them and don’t try to control them and let them make their own decisions or you decide it’s too big of a deal for you and you leave
Pretty much none of my extended family have gotten the vaccine. I've asked them to go to their doctor and have a conversation about it, but the responses I've gotten to that aren't great.
People need to do what they feel is best I suppose, but know there are consequences. I don't expect to allow anyone to see our newborn if they are unvaxxed. At least not until they reach daycare age.

Exactly, which is why testing is better than vaccination if you really care about that.
Two women that I know, both in low to mid 50’s and both not vaxed, had been hospitalized for the past week or so and ended up on ventilators. They both died today. Both of their husbands are vaccinated. I have read communications from both now widowers urging people to get vaccinated to avoid this tremendous heartbreak.

Have a genuine conversation about it and then respect where the person lands like a grown up in a loving relationship.
Plot twist: you are the 🚩 !!
What would you say if your S.O. was pro-having kids and you were anti-having kids? What about if they wanted to live in a town of 1k people and you want to live in a major walkable city?
COVID has become so politicized that we forget it’s like any other aspect of a relationship.
@deloitte2 not wearing n95 or kn95 if you’re not vaccinated is also a 🚩 🤷
So how many of you are in the same situation? I ask because then you would know their (anti vaxxers) reasoning behind it

You’re assuming OP hasn’t heard them out yet.
OP What are your SO’s reasons?
Rising Star
Are you ok with their reasons for not getting vaccinated? When it comes to relationships, you’re going to have differences in opinions. However sometimes there are core things and principles you don’t want to compromise on and that’s something only you can answer.
