Oh, I've been that one friend.
Needless to say, I was quite surprised to learn that I was "one of the good ones". It was definitely news to me.
Then of course, I became "the bad guy" for not being terribly excited about wanting to hang out any more.
I guess that's my fault, though...I should've been flattered.
Yes, your fault. If you had been more tolerant and forgiving, eventually you would have worked your way up from 'patronized' to 'project in need of a white touch'. Given enough time, you might have either scored the awkward blind date or lived to see your white 'friend' begin to ape your taste in music and fashion.
