"wait what? what has?"

"uh the fact your boy friend is black..we're from an older generation.."

and her voice trailed off. when my mom told me that it really blew my mind. being that her and my dad are a multi-racial couple themselves. (my mom is asian and white, while my dad is white.) On top of that both R & J are dating asian girls. which i brought up. she said asian didn't hold the same stigma.

ugh. it was just so..surprising to me. i grew up in such a bubble that for a long time, i didn't even really know what race was. some people had darker skin, some people had lighter, and some girls had this beautiful black long hair that i could never have. and thats all it was to me, and my parents purposely made it that way.

she said they like him, he's a good person, its just weird for them, and that they are trying to "adjust."

just, what the fuck? of all people..
