If your boyfriend called someone a 'window licker'...

[Ashamed234567]

....would you break up with them immediately? Or just tell them how offensive it is? This is something my ex did, talking about someone else to his friends, and I didn't, and I'm so angry with myself now as it was a massive clue to his character and I used to work with people with disabilities...so it's disgusting that I didn't even say anything when I overheard him use this term. Please don't have a go at me for this as I'm kicking myself enough.

But if you heard the same - would you dump straight away?

My boyfriend used it recently and although I can't break up with him immediately due to family and financial situation, it has definitely made me realise that he's not the one I want to spend the rest of my life with anymore. He is clever enough to realise the offensiveness of the term and know better as well. Worse still, he's a "nice" guy. People who are nice to ingratiate themselves with others and not because they actually are a good person (i.e. easily throw minorities under a bus) are the worst.
