Never something that crossed my mind with regards to dating. Though when I was really starting to date my father warned me that if I chose to date outside my race that there may be other boys who wouldn't want to date me because of it. I never had that problem but I think it's likely to be less of an issue once you are outside of an environment like high school where your dating pool is small and even if they don't know each other they often know of each other.

I feel very proud to have grown up an Army brat, living in several beautiful states in our Great Country & some foreign countries. I was fortunate to have sisters & brothers (friends) of different hues of skin color...

I was fortunate to love & be loved by different ladies of different shades of skin color & ethnicity.

What is Important from a Lady is having a Good, Warm Heart, Love & Character...

Imho.

Is it a natural occurence? Or do people have bad experiences within their race that pushes them to look outside?

Personally I think people should date whomever they feel is a good match for them, no matter their race. Just my thoughts.
Well, I must say dating other ethnicities is exciting and fun for me because you get to learn a lot of things. I have even come to prefer to date only other ethnicities, umm, because I like the variety.

Is natural, well, yes, it comes natural for me? We are all the same, just different shades of color. We all have the same insides, nothing different, so I don't see the big deal.

I am a black female and have a thing for italian, greek, brazilan, or guys that are just sexy, no matter what ethnicity they are. LOL, I love the variety.
