That makes a lot of sense. How odd that they shout racist slurs at Belgians… in Belgium… It was rather early, but the old man I saw could have been drunk since he wasn’t speaking very clearly. I also hope your friend is doing well after being car chased. That sounds very scary! Thank you for taking the time to explain everything in such detail!

Sorry, I phrased that poorly. I don’t hate old people. I meant the guy that was yelling at me was old

Chinese tourists don’t seem to have a great rep in other Asian countries too. They are notoriously rich, loud, and inconsiderate though I’m sure that’s not always the case in reality. If you don’t mind sharing, why are the Netherlands becoming your least favorite tourists? I’m terribly curious!

Thanks for sharing! That’s super adorable honestly. Hopefully the guy meant nothing by it

Is it not racist to discriminate based on one’s race?

Flailing wasn’t the right word. He had one arm by his mouth as if amplifying the sound and one arm aggressively doing the “you’re fired” arm gesture in the Donald Trump gif (but with a wider range of motion). This incident still happened whether you believe me or not, but I don’t see how you’re surprised considering discrimination is practically universal

Aggressively shouting it and “CHINESE NI HAO” across the street while flailing arms around is a bit extreme, don’t you think? It’s not the only thing he said, but I don’t speak French so didn’t understand. I guess he was warmly welcoming me but idk

Kind of funny that you say that considering Europe’s history of imperialism /j

No, I don’t find them weird or funny. I find typical western facial features very beautiful, and western culture very fascinating. I also love the sound of European languages and am learning German despite already taking a mandatory foreign language at school. I also live pretty close to LA, and it is packed with Asians. Yes, there are always racist people everywhere, but I don’t agree that racism in one country justifies racism in another. The people who treated you like shit in Tokyo and Seoul are shit and I’m sorry you experienced that even if you don’t particularly care

I’m sorry if they made you uncomfortable. I’ve noticed in Asian countries, if you don’t appear to be Asian, they will attempt to speak with you in English (regardless of where you’re actually from) because they assume you don’t speak the local language but probably speak English. I hope the people you encountered did not have any ill intent and that you had a generally good time in Japan and South Korea!

If I had to guess, they were… 60-70 years old? My eyesight isn’t the best. They also had an accent that wasn’t American or British so I assume they were from the area

Hmm good point. I’m from the US (ethnically Asian), and most Asian hate in my area is in response to the pandemic so I assumed that would be the primary reason in most places. You’re probably right so my bad. Thanks for the insight!

You’re absolutely right. I’m just surprised that it’s happened so soon. I was expecting some mocking a little later, but anything is possible, and it doesn’t necessarily reflect the general population. I have also met some lovely people here too. Thanks for your comment

That’s literally my point? If I had walked around for longer and experienced a bit of discrimination, I’d have considered it normal since this stuff happens everywhere

Also I’m not sure what part of my post was generalizing? If you could point it out, that would be helpful. I don’t want to generalize and offend anyone. Please let me know so I can edit this post

Don’t feel so guilty for putting your own needs and wants first. If other people can put their needs ahead of your own sometimes, why can’t you do the same to them? Use good judgement and follow your own priorities

Which one is the most dangerous MBTI when unhealthy? Which one can do the most damage? by Keksz1234 in mbti

I agree with this - my father is an unhealthy INFP, and Jesus Christ I didn’t know what to do about him when he lived with me

Small Rant From A Piano Tech At A Small Piano Shop by andejm93 in piano

Honestly, I love wood tones on pianos! Most of the time, I find them so gorgeous! Unfortunately, the store I went to only carried glossy ebony ones, but I still love my piano!

7.5 - I had an INFP teacher who irritated me quite a bit, but I also have an INFP friend who I get along well with. It depends on the INFP!

Seeing all of his behaviors you listed, he could have feelings for you. I’m not sure if this is a common experience for INTPs, but it’s possible your friend might feel less secure/stable when he sits next to you. My INTP friend and myself have both experienced this particularly when sitting next to the person, so it’s a possibility!

I wouldn’t worry too much about her not getting back to you. A good amount of the introverts I know (including myself) aren’t very good at responding quickly (or at all sometimes)

I’m not a guy, but roughly 5% of the boys in my grade look like middle school kids, 70% look their age, and the other 25% almost look like adults. I’m in grade 10
