    So I was having a chat with someone at www.******.com . For those of you who don't know it's a website where you can chat with strangers and all that stuff. I REGRETTABLY forgot to printscreen our convo after she disconnected! But generally, here is what I remember she said

    (after a really long chitchat about my country, about college, etc...came the point to this):icon_bigg
    Stanger:Wait, are you gay? Sorry for asking
    Me: Do you have anything against them?
    Me Yes, I am. :slight_smile:
    Stranger: No, I don't. I knew you were gay because you talk a lot! haha :slight_smile:
    Me: How about you, are you gay? LOL Sorry for asking! XD
    Stranger: Well...I'm someone who will be pregnant one day :grin:
    Me: Sadly, I can't, y'know, produce my own children XD XD XD
    (I was starting to get pissed off by now):confused::bang::tears:
    Stranger: It sucks right?
    Me:Yeah?
    Me: Wow you're really the second "normal" stranger i've chatted here in ******. :grin:
    Stranger: Why haha :grin:
    Me: Because you're the second one I have chatted for at least 2 hours? hehe Usually, strangers just disconnect immediately :grin:
    Stranger: Maybe they don't wanna talk?
    Me: Then I ask, why are they even here right?
    Stranger: Maybe because they're tired of talking to small brained people?
    Me: Wait a sec, are you implying I'm small brained?
    Stranger: Did I sound rude?
    Me: Well it did hurt my feelings
    Stranger: Should I apologize?
    Me: Naaah, it's just a silly misunderstanding :slight_smile:
    Sttranger: good haha!
    (then after that she immediately disconnected)
    So what do you think guys? Was she mocking my sexuality in some way? Well, for me, I felt like she did! Please post your opinion ASAP! :confused::icon_sad::bang::help::tears:

    That was an odd conversation. Whether she was mocking your sexuality or not, she seemed to have a very condescending attitude to begin with.

    Regardless, don't let the random unimportant thoughts of random unimportant people to bring down your day. You are obviously not small minded, nor is your sexuality lesser than any other. In other words, fuck her. (*hug*)

    Ikr? Fuck her! Why did I even let this convo get in my head? Lol, but really, I was hurt somehow because of it. But I'm glad to know I can always come here to more understanding bunch of people where I can talk my problems to. :icon_bigg:icon_bigg:icon_bigg:icon_bigg:icon_bigg

    Didn't sound condescending to me, nor did it sound like she was being rude or disrespectful of your sexual orientation.

    And look at this exchange:

    You ask "Why are people on (the site) if they don't want to talk" and she responds "maybe they're tired of talking to small-brained people"

    I take that as people give up trying to have any chat at all because most people on such sites are so shallow and not interested in conversation, not as any insult toward you.

    It's really easy to go through life assuming that people are insulting or berating you, and it definitely doesn't improve your day. It's not the easiest thing to do, but perhaps if you make a conscious effort to consider that maybe, when something ambiguous is said, it is intended positively rather than negatively... you might find yourself enjoying your day a lot more :wink:

    Thanks for the advise. Maybe I really was just conscious. But I don't know, I felt small bad vibes there. Naah, I'll let it pass :icon_bigg

    You're right, turning something negative to positive really is wise. Thank you again (*hug*)

    I've been on that website and got totally called a hypocrite by a total hypocrite.

    Anyways, why would she respond "talking to a small-brained people" - that's such a shallow response, any other way, I think she is implying that you are a shallow person which is not true. She does not even know you, in order to call you "small-brained" to begin with which is a very shallow assumption in her case and she sounds arrogant for me.

    Just don't let that random chat with a stranger get to you though. You were being kind to her and all, at least you did your part as a good human being.

    We were really REALLY okay back when all we talked about were college, about the Philippines (my country:slight_smile: ) and new movies. Y'know all those random stuff. She just became b*tchy after she asked when I am gay.

    It could be that she has already something when you talked about the country. And let it all out when you said you are gay.

    I got discriminated on that website because of the country where I live.

    Or it could be that that bitch has something about homosexual people.

    But we can't really avoid these kind of people though.

    We can't avoid such for sure. I just hope I'll rarely meet people like her. :confused:

    Me too, and I also hope for everyone in here to avoid such kind of people. Those kind of people are harmful to our confidence and self-esteem.

    You're not small-brained. You're a genius. And most people don't understand geniuses like us :newcolor:
