I think many white moms are just like you and feel the same way. There are so many lonely people thay post.

I know an awful lot of Asian moms, specifically, who make up stories about white moms.

In their case, they are extremely insecure that their husband will leave them for a white woman - strong, independent, stable, self-confident, capable, Americanized, educated here, assimilated here, socialized here.......

Oh, and not crazy, fixated, obsessed and one way. Besides, who wants their aging relatives moving in with them in this day and age? And their relatives talking about their spouse in their language all the time, especially every single holiday? You don't think that gets old?

Think if you might have the aforementioned insecurities deep down, though of course you would never admit it here, OP.

Go ahead, dare to ask me how I know. First hand.

I don't talk about white moms. I don't cross white moms. Because I know better. Surprise - we are still a minority, OP. It will always, always, always bite you in the arse.

Settle down and worry about yourself, and what you might be doing to distance people.

I am Asian-American and grew up MoCo. Growing up, I found that there was not outright racism but definitely stereotypes and segregation. While there are plenty of individuals who are open to being friends, as a group I think many white people don't know how prejudice they can be unconsciously. And since you ask about upper middle class white people, that is an especially tricky bunch! It could be a combo of your being Asian and also midwestern. http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com

I don't do this. Do you assume all Asians do this? If so, I guess I have the answer to my question from you.

It looks like OP wants to befriend only upper class white women. Other posters are asking questions about befriending blacks and hispanic women- OP never responded back but has been back on and responded to others and/or added more comments.


Not OP but not true. When asked about AA moms, OP indicated the ones she know are are friendly and that is why she did not inquire.


Thank you for reading and defending me.

What are you talking about? We aren't interested in TJ? I see you are one who stereotypes and won't befriend an Asian-American.

OP here. Read all the posts, please, before you make such a strong statement. I already answered that yes, of course, I
am interested in any friends. I asked specifically about white UMC because those are the vast majority in my area AND because I
have not had the same issues with non-white moms.
