If we lived on a planet orbiting a red dwarf we would be bathed in orange-red light rather than the yellow-white light of our real sun. In order to sustain earthlike temperatures our planet would have to orbit much closer to the sun and would be tidally locked with one side always facing the sun. As a result the sun would never rise or set but would remain fixed in the same spot in the sky. The side of the planet facing away from the sun would be frozen in perpetual darkness.

What is the life story of a star?

In short... Nebula of gases --> Protostar --> Brown Dwarf --> Yellow Star --> Blue Giant --> Blue Super Giant --> Red Super Giant --> Super Nova --> Black Hole/Neutron Star/White Dwarf You should note that at any time in the life cycle of a star it may simply run out of fuel and then fade into a white dwarf. Interesting side-note if our sun should evolve into a blue giant it would eliminate all life on earth and if our sun were to run out of fuel and turn into a white dwarf it would eliminate all life on earth. Food for thought :)

Is the Sun a main-sequence star or black dwarf?

The Sun is currently a main-sequence star, which means it is in the stable phase of its life cycle where nuclear fusion in its core is converting hydrogen into helium. It will eventually evolve into a white dwarf, not a black dwarf, after exhausting its nuclear fuel.
