Can a vegan and non-vegan relationship work long term?

My partner and I have been together for almost 5 years. I’m vegan but he is not. Early on in the relationship I tried to open his mind to it and talk about it but he didn’t want to change and I’ve made peace with that. Over the summer we got engaged and overall it’s a pretty drama free relationship. We agreed he wouldn’t eat meat in front of me, and if we go out for dinner he orders vegetarian or vegan and that’s how we’ve made it work. We had a bit of a blow up the other day, mainly just about how we are very different people and we need to think carefully about if the compromises we are making to be together are worth it. We both want kids one day and I am just hoping to hear some perspectives from someone with a family with a non-vegan and how/if you’ve made it work? Ideally I’d like to raise them vegan and when they are old enough they can choose the lifestyle they want. But I am concerned about how to handle not alienating my partner if he still chooses to eat meat while I’m explaining to the kids that’s not necessarily right. Or family meals together, like saying he always has to be vegan or vegetarian at home. Any advice would be much appreciated.
