I married out of my race. I think people who have a problem with it are really insecure and shallow.

He is no different than the majority of the other Caucasian/white males. Although we have had our rough patches, he seems generally interested in me. I see him staring at me and one time when I caught him staring he turned away, although not fast enough for me to not see his face-reddening with embarrassment.

Yet, it seems as though if there were to be a white woman with the same interests, he'd go for her as opposed to me who is not white.I understand, it's just preferences.. Yet, sometimes I see him staring at me and it seems as though he is thinking about the racial differences we both ironically share..

I can't discuss this any further, as I am becoming somewhat upset. Hopefully you have the capability to know what else I was going to write in here and give me advice..
White men prefer to date within their own race, as it should be. This is why I don't like interracial dating. There will always be an awkward difference and culture clash. Both of the daters parents turn out to be racist and disapprove. The divorce rate between interracial couples is far higher than that of same race couples. For the sake of your future, just dump him and date a good man in your own race.

IT creates problems, all black men should be avaliable for me to date, not going after "trophy" white women. And white women should have white men available for them to date and marry, not going after asian women and so on and so forth.

You and your future kids will thank me later.

Thank God my Canadian Indian mom married my White dad. Otherwise, I wouldn't be here.

I hope this was all tongue-in-cheek and sarcasm.

Sorry, but this sounds a bit ignorant. Maybe you are speaking from a point of view of a black woman living in Alabama but here in Iowa, interracial dating is very common.

I am not White (Brazilian-descent) and all my girlfriends have been White, not because I deliberately chose them based on their race but it is simply who I click with better.

Your statement about "both of the daters parents turn out racist and disapprove" is ludicrous, maybe between Blacks and Whites in the South but here in Iowa, most Caucasian people are accepting of other races.

My Mom would never disapprove if I married someone who is not of the same background, given that her husband is German.

Maybe you are speaking from a Southern, African-American perspective, but it is a very limited perspective.

Quite honestly, it's VERY hard for me to see how someone could not be attracted to an ENTIRE race of people.

I myself, have preferences, but I have met beautiful women of every race, both inside and out.

I really don't understand why people would absolutely limit themselves to one race.
That's my point. Everybody has preference, I understand that, but anybody who says they find a whole race of people unattractive or they would neve date/marry somebody of a different race has either folded to what society/family/parents think or have deep seated bigotry.

Says who? Even if there are black men who only date black women who's to say they are entitled to you or would even want you.
