AboutNafeesah Expertise I can answer just about everything about interracial dating and what you will expect to deal with if you are in one. I won't answer questions about the psychological elements because I don't have a background in psychology to answer that.
Experience I have been in two long term relationships with individuals who were biracial and I have experience in friends who have dated and are married to people who are of a different race.

Question k, i dont no wht to do, my parents really dont interracial dating so i dont no how to tell them that i want to date this black guy, he is really nice n clean cut, he never gets into trouble and makes good grade. he also respects me alot, so wht do i do, plz!!!, help me
Answer It's going to take time for your parents to accept the fact that social standards have changed in 40 years and it's not the 60s anymore. You're in a time where people are going to be dating other races and many people do have issues with it, but in the end the actual choice is yours and if this guy has himself together and isnt a trouble maker and does well in school and treats you nice he's every parent's dream since the black guys I've known either are players, abusive pricks, cheaters, got no job or education plans or ambitions, users, and got more issues with the law than a newsstand. If you're under 18 I would invite the guy over to your house to have him meet your parents so they can see he's not a problem before you make the intent known you guys want to date. He has to also show them that he's treating you right and not doing something that would change their doubt about him. Your parents want to see you happy, but they also have to look at the fact that you're not going to settle for the typical white guy and your interest happens to be black so either they stop negating their thinking towards what is considered outdated. As a black woman in an interracial relationship myself it's hard because my mother wanted to see me with a black man, but she realizes now that it's not going to happen since I've been into white guys since the age of 14. I went with what I liked and eventually this will all iron itself out in the end because nobody is going to reliquish their happiness for the sake of their family's ignorant and outdated views and if some people fall to their family's pressure they're weak to not stand up to them. So far I've been with my boyfriend nearly a year now and my family likes him it took some time, but they got over it.
