Now I'm wondering how common is this? I have no problem with a woman rejecting me because she isn't attracted to me, but for a woman to be attracted to me but not date me because she is ashamed to be seen with me...
I plan on moving to Nyc and was looking forward to dating (though I've never dated outside my race, I'm not against it), but now this has me a little shaken, about approaching a woman outside of my race.
I especailly hear that Asian, Indians, and Latina's aren't into dating blacks. More so asian and indians. I was just curious since this is a anonymous forum, you can say how you truely feel and no one will ever know.
PS. I've also heard that Nyc isn't as intergrated as many people think... again I don't know
I cant speak to NYC being integrated, as I am not a local....BUT, I can say that any woman that likes a dude, but doesnt date him because she is scared of what her FRIENDS think is not a woman that you would want to date.
Check back on her in 20 years, when she is all siliconed up, and mutilating her because of some off comment from a jealous coworker.
No thank you!
Dont let people like that shape your experiences.....
Surely it should not be a surprise to you that many people hesitate dating someone outside their own racial/ethnic/religious category? I can't believe that you're posting this as though the thought never crossed your mind, that you'd never heard of any such thing.
plenty of interracial couples here - don't sweat it.
If someone doesn't want to date you just based on your apparent race - well you wouldn't want to date that person anyway, so its a self-solving problem.
Not sure how old this commenter is...but to be shaken as if this is the first time he has ever heard of this? Really? I heard that there are things that fly in the air called "airplanes" and transport people from one destination to the other...I find the idea disturbing!
"interracial" whatever, basically if you love somebody, skin color shouldn't even be an issue, either you racist, either you not, you like the person for what she is, not for his melanin rate. Understand I grew up with all type of people with all type of backgrounds, no matter what part of the world you are from, we all live right next to each other, most of the dudes I grew up with live with girls outside of their ethnic group: 2 of my best friends from my project, one haitian and one sri lankan, live with a chinese and a latina, another friend of mine who is brazilian/portuguese/italian mixed with a little bit of french (!) has lived with a bangladeshi for 10 years, my wife is a congolese woman from brazza, so basically I find all that chit chat about being scared of dating a girl "who is not from your racial group" a bit comical, I guess that is part of the american culture...
I am not surprised. They understand why black women are described as "strong black women". Have you ever heard the term "strong white or asian woman"? Why is that? White, Asian and Latino men tend to get married and support their children. Despite the strides women have made in the workforce, women are still women; security and reliability are important.
My father is black and my mother (RIP) was white. I prefer black and hispanic chicks there's also a high abundance of them in my area. But anything goes as long as I find them attractive.
