I've never have had to deal with anyone being negative over me being gay. But I want to know how you guys have dealt with it in the past. It might help out if something like that happens to me. Being out can be hard and I want to prepare. Plus this could help anyone that has less experience with it like me!
It may be hard to do, but ignore them. Really, be the bigger person. Prove to them that you are above the strife.
Ignore them, don't let stupid ignorance influence your life. I believe most people negative is because they are unhappy with their own life's and feel everyone should be too. Few people are negative simply because they don't understand it and just follow what others do. If someone important to me would be negative I would try to explain it to them, but bottom line, I know what I am I won't let anyone ruin my happiness. Good luck everyone.
