Interracial dating?

Question

I'm not being racist or anything, and i hope you guys won't either. So i'm just wondering if interracial dating/marriage is okay? I'm asian and i have a caucasian bf...i don't see anything wrong with that, but is it weird since we're both completely diff races? I have darker features like dark hair/eyes. He has light hair/eyes...does that make us a bad couple???

My parents are kind of against this...but they're learning to accept the fact that i like all types of races/nationalities.
I've dated mixtures of guys like asian, hispanic, african etc...but i found that i like caucasians the most, so is that alright?? Has anyone been through this before?

Answer 1

These days, interracial dating/marriage is okay. I am a white woman and have dated black men since the 1970's when it was still dangerous to cross races. I married a black man and stayed married to him for 25yrs until his death. About 7-8yrs ago, I started "dating" my present husband online for about 3yrs, before I went to India and met him in person 3 days before our marriage. After the wedding, a newspaper lady asked me "why did you choose to marry an Indian??" I told her, I didn't fall in love with an Indian, I fell in love with my husband, who just happened to be Indian. We've been happily married since then.



Go for it,, but don't make race the most important reason for dating someone.

Answer 2

When you enter into an interracial relationship, you have to sit down, and make an honest assessment of yourself. Do you have the strength, courage, tenacity, and patience to deal with the issues that being in an interracial relationship poses? Can you deal with the criticism from your family? In all honesty, some people deal with this splendidly. They do not care about what other people think about them and they are not deterred if no one around them are doing what they are doing. But some people are just the opposite. And that is ok. But you have to know what type of person you are; you have to know what your social limitations are, before you can consider dating interracially.

Answer 3

If you really like a person, color or nationality shouldn't get in the way. But the again, interracial dating may be a problem due to the family members. Some family members may criticize on your choice of dating. My view: My view doesn't matter, interracial dating should be viewed by the people in the relationship, not the onseers.

Answer 4

Hmm.. you have dated many guys from different racial backgrounds and you are just realising your parents opposition to such? I don't know why Asian girls would always date a White guy before the sun rises. I'm saying this bcos, I've observed this so often. What is surprising is the fact ur parents are against this. It is your responsibility to educate your parents and stop playing oblivious. I hope your tales, about previous activities, are true.

Answer 5

If two people being different races caused a bad couple then people wouldn't be doing it. I think you knew the answer. And even if we told you interracial dating was bad would you actually break up with your boyfriend? Probably not so this question was kind of pointless.

Answer 6

Im hispanic and am dating a Japanese guy. There is nothing wrong with it as long as you love and respect each other. His mom actually LOVES me. She is always touching my hair and rubbing my face. She keeps calling me white beauty even though im latina, lol. There are not many foreigners in Japan... Other people on the street look at us weird though. Not so much in tokyo, but in smaller cities people will stare non-stop.

Answer 7

Of course interracial dating and marriage is ok. You can't help who you love and as long as they are human, then it shouldn't matter what color they are. My fiance is Hispanic and luckily we didn't have any problems with family. His family thinks I am the best thing that ever happened to him and my family feels the same way.

Answer 8

no nothing is wrong with it. it's a good thing in my opinion. my parents are an interracial couple and i'm mixed race :]. and all my boyfriends except for one have been multiracial too :].

Answer 9

Interracial dating is awesome. I think that your mom and dad are against this because they more than likely grew up during a period of time when it was less expectable.

Answer 10

Don't let people tell you that interracial dating is wrong.



I'm afro-cuban/greek...my boyfriend is white.

Not only are we opposites physically. I'm darker(obviously) brown eyes, black hair and he's lighter with adorable little freckles green eyes and light brown hair. But personality wise too.



But we couldn't be anymore "perfect" for eachother.
