I’ve been in a few interracial relationships… You get a lot of weird stares… especially if you’re a Black woman dating outside your race… I get stared at like, “why are they together?” Not the curious stares that I see others get… I don’t understand why Americans are so focused on race in a negative sense.. it’s a beautiful thing to meet others and share your cultures and learn about others… why limit yourselves? But, after all of the hate and negativity that I’ve experienced, I’m kind of thinking of changing that… I may start focusing on my people who look like me… As a sad as that sounds..
It's not a big deal. I'm a black woman dating a white man; we have been together for 6-7 years now.
We are just a couple; there is nothing different about us than any other couple. I hate when people immediately point out that I'm dating a white guy! Why is that so weird or odd? I find it funny it's 2021, soon to be 2022, yet race is still a big deal! Especially in certain parts of the States. I will be so happy when interracial dating is seen as just "dating" without having to specify you're dating someone of another race.
We are all humans. The color of one's skin shouldn't matter. Some "whites" are pink while others are tan. Some "blacks" are dark black while others are light brown.
I know a few interracial married couples... perfectly normal marriages.
I think it is absolutely ridiculous that anyone would have a problem with two people of any background loving each other. If anyone has a problem with interracial dating, then they probably don't understand what love is.

I am all for it.
My entire dating life has almost always been interracial since I'm two different races and I've dated guys of almost every race, but I honestly don't think about race. I see us all as the human race.
Chances are, I'll end up married with someone of a different race.
I honestly don't care. Skin color is just color. I dated white guys before and I never had a problem with it. I don't mind dating outside my race, if they aren't racist and their family members aren't racist and make race related jokes then I'm okay with it. If they have racist family that make race related jokes then it's an automatic no.
I am fine with it, and I will be waiting for the downvote from whoever keeps hitting me with it one these questions.
So, no, I don't care if interracial couples exist and nor do I have a problem with it. Let people go for who they want and are happy with.
I've dated within my race and outside. I was treated with more respect by guys outside my race than within it.
I personally don't want to be treated like trash. I'm really not out here troubling anyone.
I just want to live my life and be happy.
Just like everyone else.
In all honesty I see people, I'm aware of the difference but deep down we all want and need the same things.
from a biological standpoint, interracial dating is superior. cause the point of procreation biologically speaking is: increasing genetic diversity in the human species. by sticking with your race, you don't do that as well. by dating interracialy, you maximize the genetic diversity, meaning you're doing biologically the best thing for humanity.
Absolutely nothing, it just a thing that happens.
It really does not bother me, far to many seem to have these hang ups, often racist ones about skin colour and dating, relationships.
I don't care. And yes, the love of my life was white, as well. Let people date whoever they wish, as long as they aren't tricking or abusing the other party.
I think people shouldn't make so terrible judgments or comments about people who they are with or what race they are or whos someone's sexuality or what kind of disability they have or anything and they should be able to choose and without big judgments or comments and be free with whomever they choose to love. I think interracial dating is good. All of us are human and we only live once so don't waste time being badly closed-minded and let people be whoever they want with whoever they want.
I am white and married to a woman who is also white, but her skin color had nothing to do with it. In the end, YOU are responsible for your own happiness, and you shouldn't sacrifice it over the opinions of people who don't love you.
Doesn't matter to me.
I am happy for people that found someone that made them happy.
Idc, if they are the same race, or gender.
What matters is if they make eachother happy
It's sorta racist to see a problem with this... Like who cares? Just as long as you don't rape people ur a human just like me. I'm color blind, idc about that shallow shit
I can't stand it. Just like people dating who have different voices/accents. Stay in your lanes, people. Jesus.
I used to be annoyed when I saw a couple with different colored eyes, but I've started to come around on that.
Honestly I didn't even know there was a term like that for the longest time. I still just see it as regular dating!
lions and tigers can mate, but in nature they don't. It only occurs in a zoo where man influences the situation. I think interracial dating would not happen often without societal influence or unless a person felt they could not get a "good" mate of their own race
I'm Caucasian and I started dating Native and Asian women back in the early 2000's.
We didn't even think of it as something to fuss about, and nobody really used the word "Interracial" back then. We just dated, partied together, hooked up and loved each other. We didn't discuss our race and after years of living with an Asian woman I kinda forgot she was even Asian. She was just my wife, that's how I saw her.
It doesn't matter 🤷♀️ never noticed this being a topic until I joined here tbh
I'm in an interracial relationship myself actually. 🥰👍
I can't see what the hub bub is all about.
If they like each other, GREAT!!
So what if their skin color is different, BIG DEAL!
Honestly, it doesn't matter to me either way.
I think it's nice when different cultures can make it work.
