okay. well I'm black girl. but people tell me that my personality really doesn't reflect that.(I don't get how you can act a race but w.e.) But like I've noticed that like not a lot of white guys will like approach me or any other race for that matter. But like some of my guy friends that use to like me that are different ethnicities said that I'm pretty.
So my question is does my race really matter most of the time. Will other races even notice me or what?

For me its not so much that I don't like any other race or anything I mean I'm not racist or anything I've had and have friends that are not my ethnicity (though for some reason black guys don't seem to like me), but I just don't/haven't seen or see anyone that wasn't/isn't either of Caucasian or Japanese decent that I've been attracted to. I don't really know why, but I've yet to see someone of a different ethnicity than those two that I seen as attractive, not to say they aren't out there, just haven't seen any personally. I know how it probably sounds but I don't mean this in an ill way.

White guys tend to be very intimidated by attractive black girls cause we have this preconceived notion that they'll only go out with black guys. Its stupid and its retarded but its how we feel. I've seen tons of black girls who I thought were gorgeous but it just seemed harder to get up the guts to talk to her than with a white girl.

Hey, ok I'll tell you the truth I think it is a intimidation and personal preference thing.
I'm black(Jamaican,Italian, and Brazilian) and I've gone to private schools all my life and I'm a total rocker chill kinda girl. I was in the mall one day(my friend was in another store) and I saw this guy(he works at borders) he looked really cute and we kinda exchanged like 2 glances(flirty) and a hey(I'm not too outgoing yet not too shy) but other than that nothing(so I walk away).Then my friend comes into the store(she's white or as I say slightly tanned) and he makes like a B-line for her and starts to talk to her(fyi she is really quiet and shy) he tells to call him and whatnot and maybe they can hangout.

See I don't really know what going on in his mind but it could be that he likes lighter girls or it could be something with his parents liking lighter girls.

So +P

Race shouldn't matter but it dose with a few people Its just about preference. I'm black and race doesn't really matter to me when it comes to guys. If he's cute he's cute. It really just depends on the person and what their attracted to. Everyone's preference is different. Besides, the color of their skin shouldn't matter you should like them for how they are on the inside as well.

I am a woman of color and I swear that I get aggressively hit on by a majority of white guys. So, it depends on the vibe you put out there, as for any guy. If you see one checking you out, find a reason to say something to them to let them know you are up for conversation. You'll start getting hit on by everyone in no time!

Good luck!

Personally race has never been an issue for me. I however, was brought up to believe that we are all God's children and we all bleed the same.

Myself I have dated black men and married a Hispanic man. My parents aren't but over time my family has become inter-racial mixed.

I believe that a persons upbringing and or where you are raised determines whether or not the person will be open minded about race and seeing their peers as equals no matter what race you are.

Today young people are more open minded and willing to inter-racial mixed more than my generation and generations before. I also believe that one day everyone will be of the same race. We have people who are of two, there and even four races today.

There are websites that host blogs and support and discussions with people who are bi-racial, tri-racial-log on you may meet someone who is very open to dating a black female.

Remember even though we see many inter-racially mixed couples today, there are still a lot of who don't accept it, sad but true.

I married a Hispanic man and I have been called a spic lover and so on, some people are still very ignorant.

Good luck and trust me those white boys are checking you out, however, some of them, not all, are scared to be different.
