Question Posted Saturday September 18 2004, 7:50 pm
Okay, I like this guy a lot.. and he's mixed. That doesn't bother me, but a lot of my other good friends are rednecks! That's like the only kind of people I really hang out with. I used to be a HUGE redneck, and was really racist... but I'm not anymore, because there's no point in that. My friends are friends with him, but they wouldn't go out with him... what do I say to my friends? I don't want to lose them, because they're awesome.. but I really like this guy, and if I have a chance to go out with him, I want to. I just don't want my friends to say rude things about us and make fun of me... What do I do? I'LL RATE!!

And if your friends make fun of you then dump your friends because they should be happy for you and understand that not everyone is racist and that interracial relationships are not bad.
