So true. I hid mines' with my doc back in 1979 we both were young and I really loved that Caucasian good looking smart man and he loved me. Times are much better. black and whites, other are more accepting of all kinds of interracial relationships - even most parents now. No need to hide now. LOVE ON>>>>LOVE FREELY and BE HAPPY

Jadediamo says:Posted: 22 Mar 14It's absolutely stupid to judge her because of who she married. Black men, once they become rich and famous, 90% of the time always marry a white woman. Black people are just as racist or more racist than any other race. They can't let go of the past "slavery." It's in the past people....even still some of those white men loved those black women and married them even during slavey. I'm so sorry for the pain she's received but my advice to her is don't shed another tear because the people who are judging her are just jealous of seeing this beautiful young woman be happy. At the end of the day it's all about her happiness and if it just happen to be with a man that's not her same ethnicity so what....we are all of the same race, "HUMAN" The way GOD sees us. The haters need to get a life!!! Stay encourage.... :-)

Interacial dating is still considered to be taboo. Which is why it takes courage to date outside of your race. Open communication, confidence, decisiveness, and sincere love are all necessities for a great interracial relationship.

Coaching Testimonial
"The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience"
Submitted by: Karen, USA, 34
My Dating Coach really took the time to go through my profile thoroughly. First she viewed my pictures and gave me great feedback.
She read through the written portion of my profile, line by line, and gave direct feedback on how to add my personality to it.
My amazing consultant, even asked how my contacts where going and offered a few suggestions to increase my interactions with new men.
I took her advice and made the suggested adjustments.
I have received more contact from men, more views, and have started communicating with more people which was the whole point of joining the site in the first place.
The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience. Thanks!
