Dear Ganesha11:

It is clear to me that the comments “those types of people” and “don’t invite any blacks” are offensive enough for you to assert yourself with that person, not wanting the person making these comments in your presence and part of your social life.

It is a shame that a good friendship with your male friend has ended. Did he express before this incident, before the recent conversation with him, any opinions and feelings about people of different races?

Also, was the last conversation with him only about that issue or did it expand to other issues?

I know you posted this yesterday and I wish I read your thread earlier. What happened is very unsettling and I do hope you feel better soon.

I need to get away from the computer for the next sixteen hours and will be back to your thread, if you reply.
