And I really don't get all that offended as I know they don't truly mean harm but one should not just go up to you and start speaking Mandarin just because you look Chinese. My choice was to not learn Mandarin for the sole purpose of well, I simply have no need to learn it living in the States. Living so close to the border I may turn my head towards Spanish, which would be VERY useful, especially in my current career as a civil servant. Thank you for your response, I appreciate it!
