How do I 28f navigate new friendship 27f with someone who chooses to date someone she describes as racist and homophobic?
I have felt pretty isolated and recently I met a new friend who is really lovely. We have so much in common and she's super sweet. We get on and have very similar values so I thought. I've known her now for maybe 2 months. I am black and she is biracial(Asian and white). Her boyfriend is Chinese and she told me that she thinks he's a bit racist and that he's scared of black people. She thinks it's more black men he's scared of because he seems to actively avoid them like when they went to a bar she wanted to get a drink but he told her wait for the black guys to move to be safe.
She said if he meets me it might change his views on black people but I'm like why do I need to be a representative for all black people. She says it's because he was raised in china ( we are British). It just rubs me up the wrong way and I'm shocked she would want to date someone with that mindset.
She said he also doesn't like gay people and they make him uncomfortable as he thinks it's just not right ( he isn't religious, though that wouldn't even excuse that). She said she doesn't have that opinion but that he has the right to think that.
Its such a shame as I really like her and think she's great and want to be friends but it makes me question what kind of person she is. Not sure where to go from here.
