The fact is, the people who don't understand never will understand unless they join. Friends from home didn't understand why I did it, and they still make fun of me because of it sometimes, but nothing too bad...just a lack of understanding. The best you could do is roll with it and not let it bother you too much - just let them know that everyone makes their choices, and you did what makes you happiest, and you hope they do the same, whether it's the Greek system or not.
