[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never fit in. I'm biracial and multicultural, OP, and lived in several different countries as a child due to my father's job, all 100% white places, then married and had kids very young in the DC area (people here thought I was a teen mom), where I cannot work because I am on a spouse visa. One of my kids has special needs. I've had 40 something years to get used to being different, OP!

You are special and unique. Don't be afraid to let it show. Revel in your differences. After all, you only have one life, so you'd better enjoy it...

I'm close to this. I'm adopted and a different race than my adoptive family. Amongst folks of my own race and ethnicity I'm still an outlier due to life experiences and lack of culture. I lived abroad a few times, and in the US have lived in cities and suburbs and rural areas. I use both sides of my brain and work, usually as the creative within STEM organizations. I will never fit in anywhere and I accept it and am true to myself wherever I go. [/quote]
