Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
first, your not diff, and you should not care what your so called friends think about because your choice in music just shows you are open minded your choice in clothes just shows you like to be classy and neat and in the future when you get out of school that neat classy look will take you places in life people like a strong black women who is classy and proffesional so don't change nothing and the hell with your friends if the things you like change the way act towards you then there not really your friends so keep you head up trust me i'm a mixed with black and white and i just bought marron5 cd i love that song sunday morning stay strong oilyfoot@aol.com

tell your friends. if they hate you for who you are they are not worth being friends with. also if this advice helps please rate me.

Tell them about it, if they don't understand and make fun of you then they obviously aren't worth your friendship.
You seem like a great person, if they can't face the fact you don't have the same tastes as them it's their loss not yours :)

You should be yourself. Life is too short to worry about what everyone else thinks about you, and then trying to pretend to be something you're not. I am black also, and I listen and wear what I damn well please, regardless of what anyone else thinks. My <b>true</b> friends accept me for who I am. The others were fake, and I let them go. You need to decide for yourself whether or not you want to be comfortable in your own skin, and whether or not your friends are worth the trouble.

You should always be yourself no matter what.
Those who don't like you because of it were not that good of friends to begin with.Always march to your own drummer!

Tell your friends your likes and dislikes and if they don't like you for you then their probably not very good friends.

OMG do they think you listen to like rap or something ok tell your parents or whoever and say what is happening. I know this might be hard but you can go around being yourself. If it keeps happening just go around and hang with your friends AND DON'T CARE ABOUT ANTHING ANYBODY SAYS.

Drop your friends who like to follow idiot stereotypes.
Check out a band called
Mindless Self Indulgence
No one has heard of them, and they're off in their own league of music. Heck, they even have their own type of music instead of rock or something its called IndustrialJunglePussyPunk
Pretty sweet music. Give em a chance, they're very different compared to things you have heard before.

who gives a damn, do whatever you want to do. if anybody says that you dress like a cracker or something equally rude, just say that at least you don't dress like a drug dealing low-life.
have fun!

Hey I'm a black college student and practically in the same position as you are in. What i've learned out of life is that you could only be true to yourself... of course people will have their opinions whether good or not, you on the other hand have to make a decision to take them on or not. As long as you're true to yourself you will attract people who understand you for the person that you are. Patience is the key and because of this i've been able to make some great friends in my life no matter what race, ethnic background or gender.
ABout your friends if they can't accept you for who you are then... they need to check themselves first before they past ne judgement on you.
