I haven't went out with caucasian girls since I was in college and the reason for it it because being married to someone who shares the same ethnicity makes life a lot easier and have more understanding between couples, However it greatly diminishes the availability of dates (supply and demand kind of thing. Plus as my hobbies and priorities in life change......I find myself more and more in-line with the stuff caucasians are intrsted than .... For this reason, I am now thinking about dating "white girls" but I don't know how to approach them out side the influence of alcohol and loud music (no offense as I did back then).... I am wondering if there are good suggestions from city-data friends?

I would suggest that if you see a young lady that "catches your fancy", that approach her just as you would approach any girl.

Man, if you're serious and sincere, then just talk to her and be honest with her about who you are and what your intentions are.

It's 2012. I truly believe that the overwhelming majority of people have evolved to the point that skin color is a totally irrelevant issue. I think more than likely, the lady will say yes or no, based upon your presentation.

If I may give you a little advice.

Judging by your opening statement, I believe that you still have some soul searching to do regarding your own comfort level with interracial dating. Honestly, if I were a young lady, I would be very hesitant to go out with you because your interest doesn't seem sincere. I get the impression that, at least in your own mind, that you are "settling" for dating white women.

I don't know you and I'm not judging but I am telling you what kind of impression or vibe that I am getting from you. Remember first impressions are lasting impressions and you don't get a second chance to make that good impression.

Just some food for thought.

Be certain you are divorced first. Try your luck. You will sink or swim based on your approach to any woman (as was mentioned), and you may wind up with someone nice. And lose the alcohol, you are good enough without it. Really.

lol I know a lot of successful (surgeons, lawyers, pharmacists, nurses, PAs) people who have met their spouse due to an online dating service. I think that your ideas about online dating are outdated.
