I have a question, even if you aren’t a lesbian that’s fine too. I’m a white girl and my girlfriend is black. The racial tensions in America has gotten more severe and I’m scared for her mental health. What can I do to be there for her during this timer

i’m white so take what i say with a grain of salt but i would just be upfront and ask her what she needs from you

I’ve been trying to take her to her favorite spots, and buy little gifts for her, but I can tell it’s waying on her by the way she talks about it. It sucks I can’t take away that pain

^ i agree, cause people handle/cope with things differently, her needs might be different than other POCs. but her knowing that you are there for her in anyway is probably doing more than you know
