Just to clear the air, I'm a guy, 19 y/o.
I just got off the train, and I noticed this group of kids, possibly a year or two younger than me. I started walking away, and all of the sudden, I hear them making a comment about how I dress. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I dress like super goth, but just "not the norm", but still subtle. Someone from that group kept yelling out the same insult over and over. Now, I could have went back there and confronted the person, but it wasn't worth it. I could have, granted I'm not the most intimidating person when it comes to 1 VS a group of people, but I COULD have. Now, I'm just filled with anger. Why would random people insult me by how I dress when the area is filled with possibly hundreds more people who are more different?
How am I supposed to deal with things like these? So I'm different. How am I supposed to react when someone ignorant is making fun of me? I'd get into a fight, but that'll only make me look dumber. What do I do?
