Reply to [50F][27F] I’m (50F) half Chinese and my niece (27F) is white. She made a racist Asian comment on a professional phone call right in front of me and hasn’t properly apologized or contacted me (very unusual) How do I talk to her about this in a constructive way? by Complete-Lettuce-941
I am really curious where she even got that "joke" from, because I'm a decade older than her and even to me it's antiquated. A thought I have is that she and her friend may have picked it up from some show or video that was using it ironically and they don't even realize the original context. I would start by asking her where she heard it, and then explain why you found it so offensive.

Reply to comment by Sweet-Amoeba- in [22F][32M] Boyfriend’s been away for almost 3 months and sometimes doesn’t respond to my texts for over a day. Is this something to get upset over? by [deleted]
It is very reasonable!!!!!!! And believe me, I’ve dated guys, 7-9 years older than me, my grandmother met my grandfather when she was 17 and he was 53, so no judgment whatsoever. Woman to woman, the hardest thing I’ve had to overcome to make my relationships successful is thinking that my feelings are not the most important thing in the relationship. His are just as important, and I think realizing you’re upset will help with the issue.

This sounds like a very one sided depiction of the situation. If you both are not happy with each other you should just break up.

Reply to comment by Ok-Bass2557 in [40m] [35f] we are 2 people in a monogamous marraige. his fettish is killing the marraige. by Tight-Cut-4606
Thanks for taking the time. As someone who is involved in this lifestyle you may be better aware to answer questions (I would really appreciate it).
I am 99% sure he has shared some pictures of me with thus friend in which the friend relieved himself over. He spoke about it descriptively in such detail I cant possible think it was fake. Knowing how long he has been into it, even if I tell him I'm not down to do it that's end of, do you think he will seek some other form of satisfaction of another or similar fettish elsewhere?
The other thing really bothering me, is how likely would it be he participates in these activities roles reversed. Him with someone else's wife? Or are these 2 fettishes completely seperate?
Thank you.

Reply to [22f][25m] Is this because of depression and if so is there anything I could do, or should I give space, or is she just not interested anymore? by [deleted]
She told you she is not read for a relationship right now. So don't force it. Just see it as not being together. Don't expect anything. If you can't deal with being friends with her for now move on.

Oof. That right there is a big red flag. I stand by my previous statement - you deserve better.

It’s up to you if you want to repair the relationship or not. If you do I would type a heartfelt email (or just write up points you would like to bring up and do it on the phone) and explain to her how her actions were harmful and how her response was also a problem, that you understand it isn’t easy to be told you said something wrong but she still needs to take accountability. If she can take that like a mature adult in a way that satisfies you, then maybe you’re on the road towards a stronger relationship, if she gives you more of the same, then it might be best for you to distance yourself. I’m a white woman and her age and I certainly know better than to say something like that, she is old enough to be responsible for her actions and to take this as a learning experience. She might not have intended any harm but she is an adult with family who are affected by her comments, and she needs to be more cognizant of what she’s saying.

I know Reddit doesn’t like age gaps but we do have a very healthy dynamic and people have commented that we are great together. We are also at similar life stages. I know that maybe my perspective on communication might still change in the future since I’m still young, so I’m just asking objectively if that’s a reasonable complaint to have. I guess you’re right and I should probably bring it up anyway.
