any other hippies married/partnered to a non-hippie?

[juliness]

i miss how my husband used to look and how he used to act. ever since we started having kids this conservative guy has come out of hiding. he shaved his head (i miss playing with his long hair), he grew a goatee (which i would like in combination with anything BUT a shaved head/crew cut), he dresses preppy and became a real estate agent instead of using his degree in history for anything, and he moved us to a republican uppity suburban town in the northeast. 

at first it was all superficial stuff so i didn't think much of it (you can't judge a book by it's cover) but it's also coming out now that our beliefs aren't meshing (i'm a buddhist of sorts, he's suddenly coming out with christian ideals like "heaven"). he also has been making comments about how all art students are uppity and full of it, and that art school is a waste of money (uh... i started art school, and would have loved to finish)

since this town is where he grew up, the people we hang out with here are his friends from high school. and i gotta say, though they are all nice and very funny people, they are conservative, desk sitting, closed minded and childless... making it hard for me, an artist/musician, yoga doin', anti vaccinating, baby wearin' mom to (soon to be) 3 and with dogs and a cat roaming around. i love to hike and paint and draw and play... they like to separate into guys watching football and bitching about women and drinking tons of beer and girls going shopping for purses and shoes and girls nights at bars (i don't drink, i just toke).

does anyone else have these challenges and are able to make their lives fulfilling and find friendships that are meaningful? if so, please help!
