>Anglos
Found your problem
They are pure evil
They really are. I went with good intentions, and i was made to feel excluded. I didnt even dress outlandish, just my usual style.
Im unironically never going to another pride event again, just going to focus on playing RPGs and writing my book
tell us what happened lass
You should try going with frens user, london pride is only good with friends
I fucking hate pride parades, and I'm not fond of metropolitan urbanites either. Pride parades largely exist for shock value and are incredibly self indulgent. The last thing this alleged community needs is an excuse to pat itself on the back in a big media circus.
london trans pride? i was also there and i am massive fucking hon its all in your head idiot
Just my friend kept telling me everyone was giving me dirty looks. Im partially blind so i couldnt tell, but i completely destroyed my confidence
I didnt have a good time, i hated it. She left me alone and took my phone and no one would help me.
Yeah i really didnt like it, i dont like loud noises either. Just wish i could never interact with another person again
The big event last month? Yep, i was there. Im glad you had a good time
Why would your friend go out of her way to tell you that, even if it were true?
>friend tells you everyone is giving you dirty looks without any proof then steals your phone and leaves you
Damn she sounds toxic as fuck, I wouldn’t wanna be around her anymore if I were you. I honestly doubt you were getting dirty looks. It’s pride ffs. Even if you look odd it’s no cause for hatred there.
>Just wish i could never interact with another person again
don't give up on people like that, as much as I dislike events such as that that would just be neglecting basic human needs
sounds like you have a crap friend more than anything
your friend sounds awful wtf?
I've never been to a pride thing so idk but honestly from the limited information we have about your friend they seem pretty lame like that doesn't sound very nice
your 'friend' is abusing you user
sounds like your friend bullied you
The only reason to attend pride marches and the like is for people who are: Attention whores, or people who like orgies
they are not mutually exclusive
Oh and I guess sheep "allies"
joining the dogpile to say your "friend" is garbage / abusive, there's a good chance nobody was looking at you dirty and they're just saying that to make you anxious / cling to them
She kept saying it
>that person just gave you a dirty look
>wow why is everyone looking at you so weird
i dont think i look odd, probably clocky but i live in a rough city and get mostly left alone :( my confidence is very low though
Been hurt a lot user, kinda had enough of life
You know, it actually felt like it. I dont know why she would though.... i dont know why, i havent done anything to her
I legit felt anxious the whole time, i just wanted to go home and self harm :(
Your "friend" is legitimately an evil person
Ghost them immediately
If you try to talk about it with them they'll gas light the shit out of you and derive more psycho pleasure from making you feel like you're being a jerk to them for calling them out
>Been hurt a lot user, kinda had enough of life
It gets draining, yes. Everyone has a breaking point where they just want to give up. But it does get better eventually. Having a select few people is all it takes.
Also, don't listen to the other anons about dropping your friend, instead, talk to them. They may wanted to protect you, they may have been careless. Just talk.
I agree with all these weirdos.
You most likely weren't being abused by strangers. Only your friend.
I can't speak for any "community" as a whole, especially the LGBT community but knowing what goes on at Pride, if I were there giving disapproving looks, it wouldn't be towards a clocky trans person, or even a hon.
It would be those degenerates in speedos and masks trying to flex in front of kids.
>You know, it actually felt like it. I dont know why she would though.... i dont know why, i havent done anything to her
Your friend is probably bigoted and likely wants to hurt you for your identity.
>They may wanted to protect you, they may have been careless
lol, lmao
Ghost her. She sounds like a disgusting parasite. She needs you way more than you need her, and she is only willing to reward you with abuse.
This is a crazy story like both possibilities are equally crazy
1) people were actually giving dirty looks to a trans person at pride… that makes no fucking sense? I mean were you wearing a maga shirt?
2) your friend lied and made up these dirty looks. This is also fucking insane, but maybe more believable. Has your friend raised red flags before?
>They may wanted to protect you, they may have been careless. Just talk.
This is a terrible idea when you are dealing with a manipulator.
>noo trust a random blob of perfect strangers over your friend because they wear flags without any evidence
Yes the friend may be at fault, but to just jump to conclusions instead of talking things out is massively unhealthy.
Bear in mind that this was at PRIDE.
Not a damn trip to Tesco in Surrey's suburbs
>with a manipulator
why yes if we operate under nigh baseless premises it is a bad idea. Awesome. How about we tell OP to actually look out for flags then instead of jumping the gun?
yes, and? Going to a pride festival does not make you a better person. Which is why this needs looking into.
>nigh baseless premises
>Just my friend kept telling me everyone was giving me dirty looks
>She left me alone and took my phone and no one would help me
>Just wish i could never interact with another person again
>"Friend" doesn't help in any way
ok sure
damn your friend took your phone?
everyone here is saying it sounds like your friend is a bad friend, they sound correct!! you deserve nicer friends who would make you feel good!! Hang in there girl it'll be ok, get some more buddies who treat you better you deserve it!!!
You're being obtuse
It's a pride event
All of the unusual looking people come out and belong
If it was one comment about the looks then maybe, but repeatedly telling her that, no way
Her friend is emotionally preying on a vulnerable person, the perfect victim for an emotional abuser, being trans and vision impaired. These psychos exist
>>She left me alone and took my phone and no one would help me
ah shit overlooked that one. Yeah that's a flag.
