I don't want this to be " another interracial" relationship thread, but I do have a situation- need reasonable opinions.
I am the darker half of an interracial relationship. We have been together on and off for almost 2 years. He says he loves me, but is torn as his family refuses to support him as far as our relationship goes. So it's basically me or them. I don't ever want to make someone choose, and feel that in the future it would be a bone of contention between us if things ever turned bad. I love him, but ultimately may have to walk away...what's a girl to do. I want him to make a decision, I don't want to force him to do anything. But i can't wait forever.
i just want him to make a decision either lets break up or lets take this to the next level-I feel like i'm at a cross roads in my life- I'm thinking marriage/maybe children and I want to know if this is a viable option for us, or justmove on...

Screw it, woman. It's a no win decision. Walk away and don't look back.
So sorry you are having this conflict within your relationship. Families should want their kids, brothers, sisters to be happy and if you being with your boyfriend makes him happy and you happy then this family needs to back off. I find that at times, families think they know what is best for their grown children and it always irritates me. They can be too opinionated and in the long run the child in question ends up giving up something he truly wanted and being miserable afterwards.
You are in a tough spot and probably should have a very serious conversation with your partner about how you are feeling and see where he is with all this. Remember when you talk with him that he is feeling intense pressure from his family while at the same time loving you so he is going to be difficult to approach...go easy. Don't threaten to leave if he does not choose you...try to figure out a way to work this out if you do truly love him. If after talking with him he chooses to leave, then he has either given into the family pressure or he truly hasn't loved you like he claims to. Love does not see color.
Good luck with this and I hope it does work out for you.
I would say keep it the way it is and enjoy all the pleasures you can with him, and if you find something better along the way, leave him.
I know my opinion not very moral nor confrontational but I'm a hedonist who miss the seventies where people were more cool in their relaionships and didn't feel the need to ride all the time the moral high ground....
