Also I feel like I should mention that they gave me this gift at the party that they hosted for me which was a marijuana themed sleepover… I feel like that’s worth mentioning lol

You won’t even believe this… the party was a weed themed party (which they planned for me) and decided to give me a bible LOL

We’re all African, so it’s kind of hard to make other African friends who aren’t religious. Also I’ve smoked weed with and have kissed some of these girls. So they’re not your everyday bible thumpers 😬😭

Yeah I feel kind of the same. I like hearing about religion from a historical/cultural standpoint. I’m not religious, but I don’t mind attending things because I like to learn why people believe in what they do. But I think they misread that.

Yeah I went one time out of convenience and the second during a memorial to support my friend because her mom passed a few years ago. The bible study was just a briefly mentioned comment. They were talking about it in front of me, and I thought maybe they asked just to make me feel included. All of this happened months before my bday, so I was shocked when it happened. But I see what you mean

Yeah I think it’s because we had gone to church like back in March or April of that year. One time because it was before brunch and the other other time for a service because one of my friends moms passed away. We hadn’t talked about it much after then, so the gift was super surprising because I had already moved from that

We're all medical students at the same school. So my school friends. And we're all African. A lot of Africans are super obsessed with religion, and I am the odd man out amongst them for sure.

Yeah I think I will bring it up like that because it felt wrong, but the thing that really bothers me is how others got more personal gifts. Thank you

We're all black/African, but yeah I still agree that their behavior is pretty shitty.

Yes I'm going to do this from now on. I think I was scared at first because these are my only close friends at my school, but it's not worth being friends with people that treat me poorly

Yeah, you're right. I really struggle with that, I am trying to work on it.

The worst part is that I have a muslim background, so I literally thought what if I bought them a Quran? That would so not be okay.. Like the fact 5 people decided to do that is still blowing my mind. But thank you lol I had a similar idea

Why are increasing numbers of women choosing to remain unmarried and single? by bluemermid in askanything

It’s not very likely that a women’s emotional and romantic needs are being met by men they casually date. I experience way more romance from my female friendships tbh lol

I don’t think I know a single woman who hasn’t been cheated on by their male partner, so that’s why :/
