Right action... but horrible way to do it. (if you dont like people, dont tell them "okay lets be friends") OP sounds like a bigger tosser than his so called "friend" (which he didnt even consider him, he never liked him). He basically conned him for months, and lied to him, and then just exploded on him, with a much more personal attack than what his "friend" did to him.
If your friends with someone that goes "hey nigga" and you exploded on them, the first time it happends, jeez. I had friends that where black, say "hey whitey" (because I was a white kid in a mostly black school), and never felt triggered by it. Also "hey nigga" thing has changed meaning, you see it in tv shows with friends saying it to one another (in a non harmfull way). |
I actually haven't been friends with him for long.
If I flatout hated him, I would have never been angry with him. He's a good person, but the forced humour reached a point where it was hard to talk to him.
I never said I hated his guts and wished he died. I only said I had an issue with his forced comedy. He has the ability to crack a funny joke with some originality in it. That's why I was completely baffled by him constantly using edge.
Of course, I apologized to him yesterday. I don't condone what I said to him at all.

if its a friend that says "hey my nigga" or "hey nigga" it doesnt mean anything bad at all. Its not humor, but if that kid is say white or asian, its probably the only person in the world he can say that too, and not offend anyone with. He probably see's other black kids say that to one another, or on tv shows they do it, so he wants to have that with his friend. Thats probably why he did it, to bond with his "friend". Then the OP blows up in his face, admits to conning him (he says he was never his friend, and admits he never really liked him) and lying to him for months, and basically attacks his person and character. |
I actually don't mind if someone says nigga, but blurting out nigger to me in front of others is disrespectful.
I went too far when I said I was never his friend, but at this point the past is the past.
