I'm Currently Feeling: | Am i wrong? I was talking to my friend today and she mad a few comments that really pissed me off and when i told her she said she was jokin n to lighten up!
She was jokin babies dad cudnt deny the baby was his when it comes out mixed as he mixed race n i am white.
Then she said it could be a throwback and come out really dark but not to worry she loves digestive biscuits and i had a go at her!
Its one thing makin those comments but another sayin about my bloody baby, she said cos she was jokin im over reactin!
Do you think i was, or was i well within my right to have a go!? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I am not sure what the biscuits is about but I wouldn't be so upset about the mixed thing. DH and I always joke around about knowing it's his baby because of the mix (he is vietnamese). My son is mixed with black but looks hispanic and his son is viet/chinese and looks like he might be mine and it's always a joke amongst the adults (never in front of the kids). Again I do not know the whole story but I wouldn't be mad over that comment. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | No your not overreacting, your friend is an idiot IMO.
Your baby may come out looking really white but have real black features or vice versa.
I havent actually thought abot what colour my baby will be tbh (im black, babys dad is greek/itallian)... im not really fussed as long as shes ok! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | um, not cool 
Did you explain to her that in order for it to be a joke, there has to be some element of humour? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | People can be such dorks about so-called "mixed" relationships and/or babies. I generally let them blather on, unless they say something unquestionably offensive, as it reflects more upon their insecurities tha it does mine. |
