I casually used the word nigga with my black friend tonight, and though it didn't seem to bother him in the slightest, I feel guilty.
He didn't react negatively whatsoever, we continued our conversation and enjoyed the rest of the night, but I'm concerned that if I'm feeling guilty about it in retrospect, maybe he will be upset about it in retrospect.
I think I should just move on and not use that word with him in the future. What do you lads think?
p.s. In addition, I'm planning on giving him a call, without mentioning the NIGGA INCIDENT, to see if he's feeling okay or upset.
>A cracka using nigga
He should beat yo skinny white ass

This is an advice thread for me, not him, bucko
Actual black people are the demographic that feels least offended by that. They call themselves Niggers all the time. If you tell him that you feel guilty about using a dirty word in his presence, he'll probably just think you are a weirdo.

I'm black myself and I'm going to say that I honestly call myself nigger ironically all the time lmao. As long as it's not said in some negative way towards the person it's completely fine to say it OP.

Just try not to say it all the time. More than twice imo. It'll seem abnormal.
I won't do it again. Yeah, he could be fine with it, but he could also be really hurt or pissed off but not saying anything because he doesn't want to potentially start shit with you, his friend. Plus most of the time normal black people use nigga ironically, which is completely lost when a white person does it. It's just a meme you'll never get to be a part of because of it's ironic parameters and context.

Hes plotting. I did this is HS when people would casually drop it because they knew I wasnt going to hit them. The obvious sign I wasnt okay with it was that I made sure for force a reaction that appeared as though I didnt notice. This is what I do when someone really crosses a line. I dont want you prepping for whatever I bring back at you.
Now in this case if you were a friend Id just tell my other black friends that you were using it casually and try to instigate them into confronting you about it.
