First of all calling myself mexican american is a stretch. Yes my ancestors came from south of the border but I have never thought of myself as anything but american. I DON'T SPEAK SPANISH!!! I get asked this on a daily basis and it really gets on my nerves. It's as if people just expect because i have a year around tan i have to know spanish. I live in america speak english!!!! does anyone else feel this way?

Spanish is my second language, but I'm pretty much fluent since I used to live in Chile...the thing is, I understand Spanish when Mexicans from Mexico speak it, but for some reason it's difficult for me to understand Mexican American's when they speak Spanish.
This is stupid, but I'm serious...I'm wondering why this might be.
Thanks ^^
