Prompt: Write about an experience when someone assumed something about you because of a stereotype. What was the situation, and what did you do?- August 26

I had told a girl I was Honduran and she just made a face and asked If I was a cheater, I told her nah but she stayed stuck up on that. At the end of the day I ain't care too much cause I could just find myself someone better who's not going to judge my character based of my background. So just let her go and went for her sister instead.
