Is my family being racist by constantly mentioning my past interracial ex?

It depends on the intention behind it.

If they’re bringing it up in a way that focuses on race or makes you uncomfortable, then it can cross into something insensitive or biased even if they don’t see it that way.

But if it’s just being mentioned casually without negative undertones, it might not be racism, just poor awareness.

Either way, what matters is how it affects you.

If it feels off or uncomfortable, that’s worth addressing.

Are they making bad comments or just bringing it up in conversation?

[Asker]

They kept mentioning his race and keep making assumptions I only like his race which isn’t true

[AgentG111]

They are more putting you down then the person of the other race. Been through that before it's not fun
If you need anything let me know. At times our own families/blood are worse then those friends and those in the inner circle and those who become our family.

Thanks

You are very welcome!

Any changes with your family or the person you were dating M

[Asker]

No changes with them. I prefer to keep my dating relationship private around them

[AgentG111]

Completely understand that! If you need anything ask away or message if need. Have a fantastic week ahead!

Thank you

They’re not automatically racist, but it’s a yellow-to-red flag depending on tone and context. If they only bring up that ex because of race, compare new partners to him based on race, or make jokes, that’s low-key racist. If it bothers you, set a boundary: “Stop bringing him up, it’s disrespectful.”

Sounds like it but you know them better than we do

[Asker]

It’s kinda annoying because they keep mentioning that race sometimes
