There is no such thing as "race" for the human species. if 2 animals of a different race mate, the offsprings will be sterile (such as lion / tiger)...no such things for humans. You may want to say ethnic group.
Back to your question.
I'm french, German, Italian, Danish, and I dated a Venezuelan guy for 1.5 years. Thing is he was from Spanish descent so he looked white as well. Now, I live in HK, and I have dated chinese men. I got the looks, but just because that sort of "assortment" isnt the rule here. Its unusual. If you love your guy and if he loves you, it shoulndt be a problem. Maybe you get looks because ppl think WOW...he got a HOT HOT girl there!
My present boyfriend is bald and short, I'm 176cm, and slim. We get the looks too. what do I care? That guy makes me feel like no other guy ever made me feel!
Forget about the ppl! You're not dating him for the appearance right? Have fun.

It has nothing to do with you dating a Latin boy. They are staring because no one likes the French. Just wear a white scarf and things might improve.

Are those people staring going to pay your rent or your bills? Are you going to let them live your life for you? Maybe they are staring because you are a nice lookng couple. Don't let stares interfere with your happiness. Who knows what kind of relationship they are in! Don't look for the people that are staring at you. Ignore them. They really aren't important in your life. If you really like the guy, go for it. If you are more worried about what others may think, then you are doing the guy a misjustice.

Samantha, you were doing fine, until you just had to go and add that last line, about your looking white! Start thinking global. With all the nationalities you say make you who you are, white isn't prominent. I would suggest you do some reading on the history within yourself and stop trying to get outside approval. You are with this guy. Not those that are looking at you. I leave you with my last question ........... "Does he treat you well?"

Well you are a mixed bag of nationalities, so i don't see what/why you think that it would be wrong to date someone of a different race.
If fin you liken' him, then, who cares what everyone else thinks.
I am 30 and like my boyz older, I have already dated a 52 year old, people talked. but i could care less.
tongues will wag about you, him, or Joe smith down the road.
people's opinions only matter if they matter to you....
go with what feels right to you, don't worry about anyone else.

Hmmmm... where are you at??
If its from my country if youre white and beautiful the look their giving is you is admiration and also jealousy so that kind of thing is pretty much simple... oh yeah this is if girls look at you two..
and if its guys... they wish you were their girlfriend! ^_^
They're just so jealous about the match up you guys have thats all... but if you're in japan it may be the way you do things together when you date that makes people look at you...
Sincerely you must be really HOT! ^_^

YES!!!! it is OK to date outside our race, whoever said it was not really needs therapy. I mean come on we are all the same, we are human, we have legs, arms a heart, feet, fingers, ears, hair or no hair. It does not matter what your nationality is, you date who you want to date, its better that way, maybe if we all date outside our race there will be no racism!!!

I'm a hispanic and I married a white girl. We have two kids together. Some people will accept it and some will give you dirty look. The way I see it is that they don't pay my bills. They don't put food in my mouth or employ me or sleep with me. So why should I care what their opinion is.

Of course it's okay. When your'e in love, nothing matters.
BUT, if you want to "get even" for those stares, just look at them an giggle, making them feel self concious. They'll go crazy thinking about why you are laughing at them. Just be ready to RUN if they decide to come after you!

You do whatever makes you feel good. Who cares about the stares. Your race does not matter. If you and person are dating enjoy eachother, then that is all that matters.
