The term 'Gringo'

The term 'Gringo'

0
votes

My new colombian girlfriend referred to me as a Gringo while talking with me and it offended the hell out of me. She seemed to be confused by my reaction and certainly didn't mean to cause offense but it definitely made me feel that I was one of ''those people'' and will never be viewed as anything else but an outsider. Anyways I'm looking for some help with understanding the term and the usage. I am still very angry and a little hurt that she said it.
