im super sad and depressed now because i was just at the mall and me and my friend were talking about how ignorant homophobes are and some group of people(like all 16-18 yrs old) over heard us and asked us why we had a problem with it and my friend said'' because they are ignorant and close minded.'' and i said '' because im Bi and dont see what they have a problem with.'' and the one called me a *censored.7.4* and then they all laughed at me.. my friend didnt want to be embarrassed so he walked away ad met up with me like 5 minutes later.
:'( :'( why do people have to be so mean....
Sorry to hear all of this happened to you. :[
Here's all I can say about this problem as of right now, and sorry if any of this sounds mean.
I think you should let it go since there's a one-in-a-million chance you'll never see those people ever again.
They shouldn't have stuck their noses in your business, but that's just how some people are. Then again, maybe they have someone that's has homophobia and were just defending that person. You don't know all people that have Homophobia, so you can't say they're all ignorant, but it's your opinion and the first US Amendment allows freedom of speech.
As for your friend, do you know if he has anger or depression problems?
He could've felt angry and just didn't want to get into a physical fight or If he has depression problems just didn't know what to say. Maybe he expected you to follow him as he was walking away and once he realized you weren't, he must've felt bad maybe.
Here's another thing, you shouldn't expect for your friends to always defend you. Yes, I do think what that guy called you was wrong, but still, try being independent at times. What if you get into another bad situation like this and no one's there to defend you. :/
But hey, I STILL DO think you should see what was wrong with him to clear things. :]
Hope that helped, I'm not good with advice :/
