I have no probelm with interracial dating. To each his or her own. I wish we as a society could get past judging people by the color of their skin, and judge them by their character.

You know, minds are like parachutes, they only function when open. I don't have any problem with inter-racial dating. We're all human. Now, when humans start dating animals... just kidding!

First of all, welcome to Mylot, hope your experience here is a good one.
This post is not something new, it has been posted many times, and my answer still remains NO, it is not wrong for interracial dating, marriage, friendships etc.
People who look at or maybe I should say notice that the couple are of different races, are the ones who has a problem with it.
Most people would look at it as two people in love, without noticing or commenting that they are of different races. My husband's ex-wife was white, we are black. I never look at color, of course it is subconciously noticed, because your eyes see what they see, but I do not say, OH, he's white or Oh, she is black.
It shouldn't matter who one chooses as their S/O.
Funny, my husband's best friend is white, we were out at a baseball game once, and one of his little daughter's said to my husband uncle Eric, you should have seen the looks we received racism is learned behavior.
have a blessed day

I don't see how it could ever be wrong, what does the outside appearance matter anyway, we are all human inside, and should treat others humanely and respectfully. It's weird that people can judge other races that have the same capacity to learn and do things as they do, I just never understood why ethnicity has been such a hurdle for all these years, it really disgusts me. I guess in the beginning we were not as mixed, so anything outside of your racial profile was alien, and that mind-set was just passed on through the generations. Though racism will never be eliminated, it is just human nature, we have become more understanding at least, and there have been laws to protect those who are discriminated against. I will date whoever I see fit for me, and that only has to do with mind and emotions, not with origin at all, with that in mind I will probably be a pretty happy person in the future, knowing that I made the right decision with whatever partner I get regardless of race, since I am leaving my mind open I will have more of a variety of people who are compatible with me as options to become old with.

i do not see any problem with it, and i think those who do are very closed-minded. the only real problem would be dealing with others' looks or comments. my ex-boyfriend of 6 years was indian, and i also have dated black and hispanic guys. there was never an issue.
