I dont date outside my race.?

Question

How do you say that without offending anyone?

Answer 1

Just say u wanna keep and respect your traditions and would like to preserve your heritage

Answer 2

Well, you can choose to just tell them that you are not interested because they are not your type....which is true. You can make up reasons or you can be honest. They should not necessarily be offended. You are not insulting them...you are just being honest with them. Why do you not date outside of your race? Is it because of your family, or do you just only find your race to be physically attractive? There is no shame in that. Don't let anybody on here tell you different. You are entitled to your own feelings and opinions. You can start off by telling the person that you are not interested and if they push for a reason, then tell them. You don't have to sound rude or offensive, just tell them that you are attracted to your own race. Your not alone. Many people feel the same way. Good luck.

Answer 3

It's difficult. Instead of saying "I don't date outside my race", just tell them you have a thing for guys with red hair or guys with blue eyes or some other trait of the group you prefer. They'll get the idea without being offended, at least too much.

But on the other side of the coin, you can date whomever you want, but you cut yourself off to so much of the rest of the world. You never know who you might meet... Love doesn't come in a prepackaged box

Answer 4

if they are offended oh well .. I am the same way I am a 33 year women and NEVER have I dated out side of my race . I believe you should stay with your own race ..I think when two people from different faces have a child they are not thinking what that child has to go threw in this world .. some people can be very mean to children that have tow races in them .. children are even meaner when it come to that . I feel for the children that do have to live their life that way .. it's not their fault .

Answer 5

Why are you worried about offending someone you have no intention of dating?

They're probably going to be offended that you don't want to date them no matter what the reason, so make it fun.

Tell them you don't date people with their color eyes, with their shoe size, or some other arbitrary personal thing and get a laugh at the look on their face.

Answer 6

I wouldn't say that persay - I would say I am already seeing someone else or I am sorry you are just not my type same as if someone with another feature that you didn't like asked you out - you probably would not say (I hope =) sorry I don't date fat guys or short guys - you would say something else.
I never dated outside my race and never had a problem saying something like this to them -it's ok to - you have your like and that is your preference and really don't worry too much about having to explain that to anyone.
Anything you say is fine- think about what you would say if another kind of guy asked you out and you didn't want to date him but he was the same race and use that - that's ok too.

=)

Answer 7

In my opinion, I don't consider it being racist dating people your own race! You can date anyone you feel like dating. And if you
want to date people your own race, then there's nothing
wrong with that. It's your preference. Just like everyone else
has a preference. I'm sure there's alot of people that won't date
certain people because of certain physical appearances. I suggest if you get an invitation from someone you aren't attracted to just nicely let them know you aren't interested.
Or lie and say you already have a boyfriend. That always works!

Answer 8

It shows you are prejudice, so it is offensive. Therefore there isn't any real way to say it without offending anyone that understands what you are saying.

Why don't you date outside of your race? Do you put that much into physical attributes, as opposed to who is on the inside?

Answer 9

Guys are always offended if the woman they are attracted to is not attracted to them. As a result encourage him to go for other women.

Usually, the guy still won't get the clue and will keep trying to go for you. If he starts trying to control your life, be confrontational and tell him the rules:

1. You can only be my friend on my terms; NOT YOURS.
2. I am NOT interested in you
3. if you do not respect this, explain to him what the consequences are.

If he still ignore this, then, by definition, he is a stalker. Be weary of his presence until you are protected from him. At this stage, he is a threat.

Answer 10

Tell them it's against your beliefs. Most people don't get offended by that because it's not a matter of being racist but being attracted. If you grew up in a house that teaches it, then of course you will feel that way. I date people of any race. I don't even look at it, but I find myself mostly attracted to guys of my own race.

Answer 11

Best off not offer a specific reason because as soon as you say as such- sure enough someone will call you a racist.

People are entitled to date whom they please. Many just feel more comfortable with those who look similar with similar backgrounds. Birds of a feather flock together. At least for people like you and me. Just don't get into your reasons for with people that drink the Multicultural Koo-lade. They can be the biggest bigots because they can't accept someone else's opinion or decision. Freedom of choice trumps leftist dogma.

All Best
