Ok...yesterday I went to my friend's house and her older sister and her older sister's boyfriend (both in their twenties) were there when we got in. I'm black, they're white and I believe the boyfriend was visiting from Connecticut or something. We live in upstate New York.
The boyfriend seemed really like...uncomfortable around me. I felt him looking at me when I wasn't looking at him...he looked really nervous and it started making ME uncomfortable. :(
Everytime I go to a restaurant or something, there's always a white person (usually a guy) staring like they're trying to keep an eye on us or something...and I'm not being paranoid because I used to think I was being paranoid, then I realized that it really wasn't in my imagination. It's REALLY annoying and I hate it.
It's happened so much that the next time someone does it, I'm just gonna wave at them and smile and to make THEM feel stupid. Is that a good solution lol?
