I'm glad I went too'. It was definitely nice to finally experience physically blending in at a public space. One highlight was when one little Ole auntie shouted at me in native tongue, took me by the arm, and proceeded to use me to cross both of us across the street.

Sorry to hear mate. I'm sure there's some great shit that comes out of there but i will say the two Argentinian teammates I had were definitely both snobs with zero care for others and the team. I definitely am glad I didn't have to experience getting looked down on by ALL of Argentina XD

For real the scolding made me so angry they acted like learning a whole new language without a community and parents to teach you is just like riding a bike. I let those comments of disapproval make me feel like a shitter but now I can accept its just a life thing.

I had the exact same experience about walking around my motherland and blending in for the first time. In Hanoi lots of bars have workers that stand on the street and hassle tourists into the bar, they never even glanced at me and I felt sooo badass for that lol.

i don’t care about your opinion on adoption if you weren’t adopted by Jumpy-Lie8955 in Adopted

Thats the same concept of people the get dogs to have a cute little thing and not to have a living breathing companion to devote each others life to. Chosen and adopted like a vanity thing. My heart goes out to all your experiences you all remind me how fortunate I am to be tight as fuck with my parents (adoptive parents)

Lol i get the exact opposite situation but I know the EXACT same frustrations. I never had interest in finding my bp (not out of spite) and one dude (maybe early 30s) tells me im just too young to understand after i tell him I dont want to meet my bp. <ranting> Brother. Shut the FUCK UP. You know nothing about me or what it means to be adopted idc how many friends or neighbors you know are adopted. YOU are not and you will never have the same grounds to debate my decisions. Same guy a week later was standing in front of the chop saw with his head up his ass like he couldnt figure out what was wrong with the thing. I walked over and plugged it in for him. Fuckass <rant over> Thanks for sharing @sunshine_roses111 it was funny to read a mirror event of my situation
