Honestly it all depends on one's personality as to how you deal with anything in life. Some people need to belong. Some people need their parent's approval to validate them. Some people are more sensitive than others and have their feelings hurt easily. Some people could give a rat's ass about any of those things and realize you can't please all of the people all of the time. If anyone had issues with the fact that I'm mixed that was their own personal problem and not mine. Gotta live your own life and make yourself happy. I don't mess with people and I expect the same in return. If you're going to do me wrong, and you only get one chance to fuck up, you're done. Life's too short for drama and bullshit. Hard to be happy with negativity around you.
