I feel for you. I was in a communications class once and I found the class exciting and inspiring. A few weeks into the class we were assigned buddies. The idea was to go to certain places and write about the experience. The woman who was my buddy was a nurse and seemed super nice.
I felt lucky to be her buddy. Sooo...one evening we chose to go to a restaurant. When we were at the restaurant I was surprised at how comfortable I felt. Suddenly, near the end of our time at the restaurant my buddy suddenly went into a rant that was racist. I was horrified. I was quite young and too embarrassed to tell her how I felt about her racism. If it was today, at my age, I would have let her know.
Anyway, I have no memory of what happened with my buddy after that. It was sad, because up until her rant I was enjoying her company.
I wish I had some advice for you. All I can think of is if your buddy gives you a bad feeling, go with it. I know it's really challenging to tell someone that you don't think the situation is working out. But if you do say what's on your mind I think you'll feel good about being genuine.
