Never have. I know it's very different, but in a LOT of cases, even if we speak the same verbal language as our families, we don't speak the same social/ emotional languages.

XD In general, they don't have any negative feelings towards Japanese people. Hell, one of my cousins married a Japanese woman recently (and her Korean is better than mine. >.<). tubby: Well, there's a difference between actively being left out/made to feel left out (which sucks, and I'm sorry about it :/) and being left out because there's no way to be included in the conversation. If I could speak Korean with more skill, I would be welcomed into the conversations, I'm sure. memesis: I have, to the ones who speak Japanese.

My sister in law's mother must be orgasmic not to have me around. You can end up the fifth wheel pretty easily even when they all speak english together.
