Hi ryanLRC2015

I feel your frustration here. I am sorry that you have had to endure this. It sounds like you are a younger adult since you speak of these people starting school. I think young people are still somewhat immature when it comes to appearances. Not all of them but they tend to look at ideals. I have found as I get older that so many things about a person does not matter. I take into account whether the person is respectful and is true to their word. Values mean more to me than anything. It shouldn't matter what you look like. Some people are just not mature enough yet to understand these things. I am sorry that you have been put by the wayside so to speak. It hurts and I feel for you. I was wondering if maybe your hearing loss is a barrier in any way. Sometimes people don't know how to communicate effectively if they have to raise their voice or they don't understand what is being said to them. What do you think?
