I was telling a friend about my family crest (Irish) and she was like “what? No way you’re still connected to it like that” … babe it’s my last name

that doesn't necessarily mean you're connected to the crest/history/culture. idk how close you are but if she couldn't tell...

I am connected it and I shouldn’t have to explain it to her. My grandpa has been very good about passing it all down to us, but every time I mention it to her she’s like “ok where’s your full family tree? I wanna see it” as if that’s just something everyone has laying around

And either way, if someone says that they have a connection to something in their family, who is an outsider to doubt them?

the way the post is framed didn't really highlight how rude she was being. it came across as curiosity, not questioning, but i see what you're saying now
