Search Results: meet black people

Hello thanks first for taking the time to read my story. I live in NJ and African American culture (yes I'm black) grows everyday and one thing that is pretty big in our culture is roller skating ( 4 wheels ). I go to this roller rink in nj that is originally a black rink but different people come to skate, since I have been skating since I was 5 so i meet new people all the time. So then that's when I met this guy I really liked not just for his looks but for his personality and skating techniques. I really never had a conversation with him but i knew his mom and I just knew him through mutual friends. Well one day some girl I met at the rink and I were talking about guys we like and we would point them out and so I was young so I just yelled out to her crush " hey, she likes you ! " and that's when things went left, she decided I'm gonna do the same thing to me and told the guy I liked the same thing which made all of us laugh and giggle. But I guess he took it seriously and so the next time I came he walked pass me saying "I don't like you" I said " I don't like you either". I felt like my world had fell apart and that's when I stopped roller skating for a really long time, recently I went back roller skating with one of my good friends and we were ready to turn up but as soon as I walked through the door their he was tall nice curly hair and much more advanced in roller skating then I would have never been. I ignored him for a while but I still had a strange feeling in my stomache, my friend and I skated for awhile I still was checking him out and trust me he looked better than ever before. I just recently found our that another one of my good friends is his cousin and my dad is also good friends with His parents. I think I might like him again but I'm not too sure I can't stop thinking about him and it turns my stomach inside out. I would really love some advice on this problem that is distracting me. Thank you for reading ! God bless 💘😇

Why do people, guys and girls, tell me I'm racist or living in a cloud because I prefer not to date black men? I am black and know it and love it. But I'm usually not attracted to black men. It's just me. I've dated a couple in the past but I just prefer to date a mix of different men with different cultural backgrounds. Even my sister attacks me and tells me I live in a fake world where I think I'm above others. I don't believe in acting white or black. I don't agree that white people should date white people and black people should date black people. I like to remain open minded about ANY guy I meet. But why am I judged harshly because I don't date black guys?
