How do I get into an interracial relationship? I have always wanted one in my life?

[piano]

I'm just really curious about interracial relationships. Have you ever experienced it? How was it? Did you have any cultural problems?

[OlderAndWiser]

I am a Caucasian male and I am engaged to a woman who was born and raised in China. I have dated women from many different countries - Poland, Ukraine, Germany, Ireland, Colombia, Brazil, India, China, Phillipines - but I never dated any of those women because they were from a foreign country. I dated them because they were nice ladies.

I am now engaged to a Chinese lady but she is the nicest woman I have ever dated. If I had dated her only because she was Chinese, I would have done a grievous injustice to her. So you want to date someone of another race, not because of she she is on the inside, but because of what she is on the outside. And that is to prove what? You going to prove what a wonderfully virtuous unprejudiced person you are? And all at the expense of doing something horribly unfair to a girl, just because of the color of her skin.

Brilliant!

First of all, you have to meet someone of another race than you are, and get to know them. Then, when you get to know them, ask them to be in a relationship. If that doesn't work out, keep doing it until you eventually get in an interracial relationship. Obviously, if you're living in an area where almost everyone is the same race as you, it's going to be almost impossible to date someone of another race.

One can say I've "experienced" an interracial relationship, but I don't really count it. In my Senior Year of high school, I "dated" a black girl (as a white guy) for about two weeks, and since we lived in the same cities our entire lives, we didn't have any cultural issues. It should also be noted she was half white, so some might say "it doesn't count" because of that reason alone. It was okay, and it was the first time I "dated" anyone in my life (unfortunately, she's dead now, but that's another story for another day).

im in one RN and have been for a long time with the same person. it just happened honestly, but i don't care about race. he's the greatest thing to have ever happened to me. we share our cultures and embrace each other's differences.

Anyone who isn’t your race is going to run a mile if you are just trying to bag them based on their race. Thats fetishising. The amount of times I hear ‘I’ve never been with a black girl/brown girl/Asian girl etc etc… ugh

[Finchie40]

If you have great chemistry and connection with someone that’s all that matters , no matter what their race is I did get into a relationship with a Spanish girl once and she was great to me , I would probably still be with her , if she didn’t pass away from a brain tumor , she was beautiful to my eyes and her and I had a great connection , so if you want to have an interracial relationship just ask her out like you would ask out any other
Girl. She will either say yes or no

As a woman of Afro descent, I have always been attracted to men outside of my cultural heritage/community. And I do desire to be in an interracial marriage. I grew up in a city, neighborhood, where I had neighbors that mostly came from countries in Asia. I also had classmates that were predominately White or Asian. So I grew up in a diverse city with people from all walks of life. So I understand.

But first things first... ask yourself why do I really want to be involved in an interracial relationship? Make sure there are no red flags. No fetishizing.

The next thing you have to do is be "open minded"! How can one be "willing" without being "open"? You have to be open to all walks of women, no matter the color, nationality, language or appearance. Nothing wrong with having a preference, but don't exclude your possibilities. They could have scars, a bald head, a birthmark or be overweight. Don't discriminate. You never know who will be the next Mr. (insert your last name).

Be accepting. You expect someone to accept you for who you are, why not be accepting of others. There's nothing wrong with enhancing oneself for the greater good, but accept others for their quirks, flaws and all of the above. If you don't accept someone for who they truly are, then you never will and it won't work out.

One tip: Just be yourself. Try to stay calm and relax and just let you be you. Don't put too much pressure on yourself, otherwise, it can take a turn for the worse. You want them to like you for you, so just be you, right?

Next thing, just treat the woman you want to get to know like a human being, because they are. Don't put them on a pedestal, don't treat them like some sort of goddess from a Greek mythology. But also, don't disrespect them, either. If you want to get to know her, be respectful about it. Talk about something you both have in common or about the weather, which may seem weird, but it can lead you into a conversation with her. Compliment her on what she's wearing which will for sure make her smile, not on her looks because that might creep her out. But if you want to compliment her on her looks, go ahead and do so, just be respectful about it.

NO CATCALLING! Major turn off and you will never see her again.

Never say, "I've never been interested in..." or "I've never dated a ( ) girl before".

Make sure to have some respectable space between the two of you. Remember: your personal bubble.

Eye contact is key. Making and retaining eye contact shows real interest.

Make sure that your hygiene is 100%. A respectable, or just any woman, can pick up on scents. Make sure you're clean. And if they smell something off, that is another turn off.

But in the end, just have respect for yourself and for her. First impressions do count, but if you make a mistake, it's ok! Don't beat yourself up over it.

Best of Fortune!

You're thinking about diving into the interracial dating pool, huh? But, let's be real, it's not just about checking a box that says "hey, I dated someone from a different race." It's more about connecting with someone on a deeper level, where the cultural mix becomes the cherry on top. Here are some tips:

Shake Up Your Social Scene: Ever heard the saying, "Variety is the spice of life"? Get involved in activities or groups that aren't just your usual crowd. Maybe there's a cool cultural festival in town, or a language exchange meetup.

Online Dating: Let's not forget the digital world. Dating apps and websites are like portals to different worlds. Just be honest in your profile about being open to interracial dating.

Embrace the Culture Vibe: Check out cultural events or spots in your area. Love sushi? How about hitting up a Japanese festival? Into salsa dancing? There's probably a Latin night at a local club.

Be a Respectful Culture Buff: If you're going to date someone from a different background, it's cool to learn a bit about their culture. But remember, every person is an individual, not a stereotype.

Just Be You: In the end, the most attractive thing is being yourself. Whether you're cracking corny jokes, geeking out over sci-fi movies, or sharing your love for hiking, let your true self shine.

Remember, it's about finding that click, that spark with someone who just gets you. And if they happen to come from a different cultural background, that's just the icing on a really awesome cake...

[lightbulb27]

inter cultural yes. um... talk to her and go from there.

sure, cultures are different... communications, beliefs, etc. find common ground. just like any other relationship. to be honest, it adds interest and spice, newness, discovery. it may take more work.

risks are family acceptance... you may never get over that barrier... especially fathers. raising kids... whom decides.."the catholic, or the muslim"?

Stress... excess of it is the enemy of relationships, so seek common values, character, direction in life. you want to be able to say "yes"... a lot... in any relationship.

see the women out here constantly looking for the same... different culture/race.

[celeste01]

It's okay to be curious, but to solely seek a partner from a different race, for the sole fact that they are a different race than you is a bit weird.

My advice is to join social groups of any hobbies you enjoy and really put yourself out there, travel etc you are bound to find someone

[Wood3nWhal3]

That's an easy one for me: Im a romantic nomad with an appetite for sweets and as long as she's got plenty of cake to keep me happy, she has my heart ❤️

[Forceinhand]

There's something very weird about actively seeking another race just to be in an interracial relationship for the sake of it. Comes off very superficial and puerile. Relationships aren't meant to be like that, and people who try to pursue with motives like that aren't successful.

[RageBabe]

I agree. Lol

[ArrowheadSW]

I have dated Latina women because I am very attracted to them. The cultural differences can be apparent. I tend to be somewhat of a private person, but dating in the Latino culture, you have to be prepared to be involved with the other person's family and relatives. Not bad at all but it can be an adjustment.

[ManOnFire]

Uhhhh try asking out a girl of a different race? It's no different than doing it with someone of your own. The majority of my relationships have been interracial, even though I was never really looking for it, it just kinda happened that I met women I really liked of other races. You make it sound hopeless, dude. It's really not lol.

[mandyfire98]

I mean if you want to be in an interracial relationship then try to date someone from another race. Easy peasy.

I'm currently in an interracial relationship.

[sheikalana]

I was born from an interracial relationship and I'm currently in an interracial marriage. Be aware of cultural issues as this might be a shock. Also getting into an interracial relationship because you fetishize other ethnicities or skin colors is not a good reason to get in an interracial relationship.

[BourbonAndBacon]

Go travelling and find a culture you like and are comfortable with. I've dated multiple black women from 4 different African countries and the Caribbean and the culture and traditions weren't for me. I've dated multiple Asian women from 8 different Asian countries and there are only a couple cultures I can adapt to.

[Nikki1989]

The worst relationship I ever had was with a black guy, not because he was black, just because we had zero in common. We clashed on almost everything.

[DreamLife7]

Agreed, their mindset is completely different.

[Billlewis]

Good luck. It's a lot tougher today than it used to be, because of the massive effort by the media and the government to make different groups of people strongly dislike one another for political purposes.

[NathanDavis]

a very good first good step would be... to stop making it about race

to see people for who they are other than the color of their skin...

[Joshydavid25]

Just connect with somebody of a different race.. Maybe you'll have to actively seek then out if you aren't friends with anybody.. But it seems as if you actually wanna connect with somebody different (looking) than yourself..

[HawkPerception]

I had a relationship with an Indian, then an Italian, then a Mexican, then a Bengali girl. I don't think most people care about race. It's not a big deal.

[LiamJHayden]

Don't fetishize it. If you click, you click. If you don't, trying to force it will probably fail miserably.

[katiesmuff]

Just simply date someone of a different race than you are and bingo you got it. Not hard at all!

[Charliefretz329]

I think that dating based on skin color alone is an unhealthy premise. Also, it is apt to not be appreciated by the target of your advances.
People wish to be wanted for who they are inside, their minds and their souls.

[Anonymous]

lol wanting an interracial relationship because you're "just really curious"? ew. leave those women alone.

[Booklover_90]

If you’re interested in women who are of a different race, go for it. Just be ready for the occasional racist and their BS.

[Wood3nWhal3]

Just follow your d*ck, it'll lead you to where you wanna go.

[Massageman]

Ask someone of a different race out for coffee, for a start.

[deus_ex_sisyphus]

Dont make it about race - just ask the person out

[RageBabe]

🤔

Interesting.

[sage2021]

It seems as if you've already experienced this.

[Gent207-2]

So what's stopping you?

[boggboss]

By asking aomeone out of a different race lol

[Shedzij567]

What race you want

[PetiteMisSmooth546]

You want a black girlfriend?

[DreamLife7]

Troll alert troll alert

[rachel776]

i disagree on this one. i was just going to say, ask out someone of a different race 🤷‍♀️

[DreamLife7]

The post is giving fetish, not love.

[Jmmmfi4]

SO GROSS

[Amara_09]

Be yourself.

[PinkSmoke]

If it clicks it clicks

[QuietRunner]

it is fun dating other races

[Anonymous]

I think I'd like to try Chinese

[StirredNotShaken]

[vicphilips]

You can do it
