I'm just tired of people treating us like shit. I don't know why I care. Why do people live to hate?

I don't think about them as much now. I stay educated and up to date on the news, I do research and vote for people who make a difference, and I moved to a place where there are people like me. I spend time with my SO and feel happy about it. The people that hate usually get to know me before they know I'm bi. Once they see that I'm a normal person who just so happens to have a boyfriend, they tend to chill out.

Glad you found an accepting community, do you mind if I ask for some advice?
