Search Results: different ethnicity

My ex and I met about 4-5 years ago when he sat in front of me during our high school graduation by staring at me but we never spoke. Then the following summer, we had gotten the same job. We started interacting with each other all summer, and surprisingly went to the same college. A forever romance right? WRONG. I had ended things because I was being treated like trash like embarrassing us in front of my friends, and he confessed that he cheated on me as well. He apologized for his actions, asked for a second chance, and I gave it to him out of hope.

Then, we finally started having sex which I was hesitant about but I wasn’t sure how else to keep the relationship going. That lasted for about 5-6 months before he ended it saying “I only gave you the time of day so I could say I had sex with this specific ethnicity” and left. He ended up showing at my workplace a couple of years ago, and smiled at me. I didn’t smile back, and it bothered me so I messaged him on another social media account telling him off and he apologized for everything that had happened. I blocked him on that outlet and thought that was it since we’re both in different relationships now. I created this new social media outlet for graduate school and he sent me a friend request on there so I’m not sure if I should accept it or not. What do you think?

Even if you did or didn’t care to interracially date, would your parents care if you did?

My mom, dad and grandma have dated some of every race. As have I. However, I see no interest in dating someone who’s constantly jokes about stereotypical things and makes racially insensitive comments on the daily. For example, my grandpa loves to flirt with women of all races yet he doesn’t feel the different races should officially mix in terms of dating/marriage. And he only comments negatively on women dating outside of their race yet praises the men getting laid by different races. I’ve had to call him out several times about his double standards and slick comments in order for him to respect my history in dating a rainbow of men. But at the same time, no one in my family has ever been able to stop me from dating who I want. And I just personally refuse to continue showing interest in someone who allows their family to dictate who they date. Of course, I still find many men attractive but i lost interest in dating outside my race a good while back. Its just too much drama with the cultural differences and clearly not who I see myself building a future with in the long run. But i do have moments where i consider making an exception to the rule, only to end up regret that decision. Like I’ve really gotta stick to my stance.
