I wasn't talking about my political beliefs when I used the words "liberal" and "ultra-conservative"...I meant, the way I think and behave in general.
I have been thinking of getting library memberships and volunteering again. Hopefully, I'll meet some like-minded people while doing what I enjoy.
As some have suggested, getting depressed is surely not the way to solve this problem so I'll try and stay optimistic.
what I meant by "too liberal" was that the fact that people here aren't used to girls who are well-read, who aren't religious, who like to drink and admit it too, or vocalize their opinion about anything (not just politics), aren't cowered by the streetside romeos etcetra. I don't think these are special abilities or attitudes but here, it's different.
Argh! It's complicated but everything usually comes down to my gender.
One man even told me, I know too much for my own benefit. Basically, they think I am some heretic or some spoil rich brat.
Sometimes, I feel that ignoring them is best and at other times, I feel I should retort. Either way, I have difficulty connecting with people here.
Oh well, I just hope the situation will improve or that I might become immune to it.
