And he doesn't keep them to himself. We were friends for the past 3 years. Around three months ago, I heard the first offensive comment. I cared about him and he was going through a tough time then, so I let it pass thinking it was just the frustration. But he kept at it and after much thinking I told him we could not be friends anymore.
He reacted badly. Understandable, considering I was his only friend for a long time. Now, he is whining around, telling people that I am jealous of him (he recently got a job at a great place) and that's why I am being rude to him.
This couldn't be further from the truth. We have discussed it more than once that it is his beliefs about racial supremacy,etc. that caused this. But he has been going telling people how depressed I have made him and stuff.
He is telling my friends what a bad person I am, etc. He hasn't bothered to tell them what the real issue between us is. I don't want to tell anyone either because I know he will find it very difficult to deal with people if I did.
I hope he will find the sense to shut up soon. But if he doesn't, I don't know how to deal with the situation. I am NOT being friends with anyone who thinks my community is inferior to his, who thinks ethnic cleansing is okay in some cases. And I am growing tired of people coming up to me and "advising" me to get over my "jealousy".
Any tips would be really helpful. THanks.
