nah, remember I was born Deaf. I am an ASL user. Since I was a kid, and my parents taught me how to be myself and dont be afraid. I remember when some people got angry that they thought I was ignoring them. I simply signed to them, "Hello, what's up?" Their face were bitter at first then their facial expression become like they were deer in the headlights. While they saw my hands moving as to sign in front of them by communicating to them. Either They got silent or keep saying, " I am sorry." or " Ah, NEVER MIND!" they walked out on me. 
For your information, I had an awesome childhood, and life. I have beautiful children, & family.
