Have you ever dated outside of your race?

Question

Was your family okay with it?

Answer 1

Yes I have. I am a white Native American and I dated a Black guy for about two years. I grew up in a very racist home it wasn't allowed but I did it anyways. I told my family (after they flipped out) That if they really love me they wouldn't care who I dated as long asI was happy. They settled down and got to know him and everything was ok after that. I am sad to say the love of my life died in a car crash about three months ago. I miss him dear as does my family. So if you are in love with someone outside your race go for it anyways. or you'll miss out on the love of your life like I almost did. Good luck honey

Answer 2

Yes I have dated (and will soon be marrying) outside my race and yes my family is okay with it.

Of course in my situation, there really are no other options. I'm biracial, so if I DIDN'T date outside my "race", I would be forced to limit myself to women of identical ancestral background as myself, depending on how far back you want to go. Pretty slim pickings, huh?

Besides that, I myself am a product of my parent's OWN mixed race relationship, so they would be absolute hypocrites to say anything about it. My uncles, aunts, cousins, and grandparents? That's another matter.

Answer 3

I dated a white guy... I am black. My family was ok with it... cant say that they wouldnt have prefered me to date a black guy, but they did not push me out of the family either!! Times have changed and it is more accepted now. I must say that I loved the experiencing the differences between him and I, and although he was my first interracial partner, he only dates black women and made me feel so comfortable. The experience is wonderful and can be beautiful if that is what you both want. Him and I are still GREAT friends and talk almost everyday and still go out. I care alot about him and plan on continuing a wonderful friendship with him. Enjoy!

Answer 4

I dated, and then married, outside of my race. My family was thrilled that I finally found the right person for me. Not a single family member ever expressed a problem that they might have had with me dating and then marrying him. The same thing with his family. There were a few so called "friends" who had a problem...needless to say but they are certainly no longer our friends.

Answer 5

Yeah I've done a lot of things outside my race. My family is okay with whatever makes me happy. No prejudice.

Answer 6

The answer is no since I have never met anyone outside the human race who wanted to date me and whom I wanted to date.I know you have people who are into other stuff like animals but that is not my thing.Also, we have not met any people from outer space so I do not know if I would like to date them. For now, I will date any member of the human race who is a good woman and wants to build a healthy, good, caring, honest ,and lasting romantic relationship with me.I hope that answers your question.

Answer 7

Yes I have, and although I don't want to offend anyone I don't actually like white girls and indeed I am married to a girl who has Chinese origins.

At fist my family didn't like it because they thought that it would never work and that I would just get hurt. But then they seen how much we loved each other they soon changed their minds and her family have always adored me, in fact when we started dating they actually told her that I had changed their perception of white men and that they were happy she had found someone who treat her with respect and made her happy.

Answer 8

yes i have dated outside my race im african american and i;ve dated a hispanic guy during high school my grandmother loved him and a couple of others but i was happy so thats all that matter i dont think about what the next person thinks i think about me first and you should do the same

Answer 9

Sure. There are date-worthy guys of every race.

However, I grew up in Whitebread Suburbia, so I didn't date outside my race until college, when I actually met people of every type. By that time, my parents' approval or even their knowledge was no longer on the table.

Answer 10

I never have, but I once did like a Hispanic girl back in high school. Unfortunately, she did not have the same feelings for me. If it would have happened, I am sure my family would have had some major issues with it.
