But maybe she’s had friends of other races before and it won’t be a such novelty to her to have someone of your race for a friend. But I think the most important thing to focus on is not so-called ‘white privilege’ and other real or perceived racial differences. You have to think about the things that will make the two of you compatible as friends. As you get to know each other, you two will discover what moral values, political and religious beliefs and life experiences you share or don’t share. And it’s those things that will determine how close you two get or whether you even want to be friends at all. You may or may not ‘click’ with her, just as with anyone else. You have to get to know her and let her get to know you. Are you honest? Is she kind? Are you strong-willed? Is she cynical? It’s more about these things than it is about race. And when you discover specifics about her personality, don’t come away thinking that all people of her race are like that, whether you find her traits to be good or bad. And hopefully it will all work out.
