I asian (20F) just broke up with my white bf (21M) of 11 months over disagreements on oppression and white privilege

We’ve been on this topic since yesterday and according to him white privilege doesn’t exist and I understand he thinks this way because he grew up in a very close minded area. I’ve talked to him about this topic for hours and tried explaining him multiple ways POC don’t have that reviled he like other white people have, yet he says that systemic racism isn’t a thing and that white privilege hasn’t done anything for him and that he grew up poor and he never had white privilege. He also said that I have never been oppressed or a victim of systemic racism. I told him that having a white privilege is a disadvantage to POCs but it’s not a bad thing. People don’t get to choose this privilege and they are born with it, but according to him it is offensive to say that white people have privilege because they don’t.

Everyone knew me at her friend's party?

So the girl I have been really into over the last 5 years asked if I wanted to come to her friend's party. It was a big thing, and she told me loads of guys had asked her, but she wanted me to come.

I feel lonely for the first time

Hey everyone, I’m not looking for any sympathy, much worse things are going on the world. Does anyone have any advice for dealing with loneliness? I’m a 25m who broke up with a long term partner about a year ago. I spent the year travelling and having a lot of fun. But now I am back in my hometown, and I am longing for a partner to spend my time with. I’m really beginning to miss having someone to come home to after work.

I don't really know what's there to act on? Depending on how close we are, I might make a compliment about how they look and that's about it. March 08, 2022 at 11:14PM
