^^^ Points to what [MENTION=21075]Borg69[/MENTION], [MENTION=22470]Pyromancer[/MENTION], and [MENTION=21778]Lexington[/MENTION] said.
I come from a family where there is NO doubt as to the attitude directed my way. I wouldn't say that they hate me, but.... they sure as HELL don't like me. My father encouraged my extended family to berate, belittle, and just all around make my life hell my entire life due to my proclivities. Just as HE did the same.
What I've learned is... you can't change a leopard's spots. They are what they are. If that's closed minded bullies or bible quoting hypocrites or any other combination of something that's hurtful to you.... it's not going to change however much you want it to. It's just the way it is. That's why you get to choose your friends. For some, this is the only support system they'll have in life. So find some good ones, yeah?
