Is that taboo? Or is it accepted in today's society? What about marriage? and children? Is it too complicated and more stressful?

I dated a white guy...
19+ years and 3 kids later we are still experiencing wedded bliss!
Our marriage is awesome. We love each other very much and we have grown quite a bit.
If you are afraid of what others will think--a biracial relationship is probably not for you.
We do not care what people think and we do not live in a place or involve ourselves with people who would gives us any hassles. The place where we live has been an intentional choice to nurture the relationship we have. Some my friends here are black women who have married white men--so we are in 'similar' company.
Besides, marriage is stressful regardless of the ethnicities of the people involved. However, it is no more complicated, in my opinion, than any other marriage. Our marriage has outlasted the marriage of our parents and siblings who married a persons of the same racial background. That is to say, that racial differences will not make or break a relationship.
Our children are beautiful, intelligent, fun and ambitious. They do not have problems making friends. They are often times admired for their looks, personality and achievements.
Your marriage will last if you and your bride have the qualities, goals and values that will enrich and grow your love. That has nothing really to do with race.

Like it or not, racism is still a reality in areas of the American society and believe me, racism will not die out. So before you do ask yourself some questions:
1)) will my co lour accepts this as a solution?
2) If they do not and we should choose to get married, where will we live?
3) Will we be accepted as equals among our main friends or will one of us has to hide?
4) who will feel the most uncomfortable around the friends and relatives of the other persons
5) Finally, what is my basic reason for dating this person?
Good luck

i dont believe it to be taboo any longer we are in 2006. its more accepted in society everyday, there is a huge percentage of bi- racial couples in the us and they have beautiful familes. there is always a little stress on the relationship since not everyone is accepting of that type of relationship. but thats not your problem. be happy and enjoy your life they will come around

Seems like is more accepted than the reverse (white woman/black man). I don't think chemistry has any racial boundaries.

We're all the same species: human (or homo sapiens sapiens to get technical) - external appearance doesn't change that fact. So it should not matter who you date or fall in love with.

Love is still love, no matter the external color.
