I know many people believe that two people of different races should not be together but i see it completely different. I truly have feelings for this guy but i don't have feelings for him because of the color of his skin, i have feelings for him because of the type of person he is. Race really isn't important to me although to my parents, friends, and family...its everything. Its really hard sometimes and idk exactly how to tell those people that I have feelings for this amazing guy that's african american. I don't understand the difference between white and black, or white and mexican, or any race compared to any other race...

I just don't know what to do...

Is it wrong of me to have feelings for him as more than a friend just because of his skin?

Why would God put him in my life and allow me to have feelings for him if I wasn't supposed to..?!

I'm so confused and I feel completely alone.

I really wished you wouldve posted an IM name or something so we could talk about it. I dont know anyone right now that is in the same boat as me and you. I have the same problem with my family but the thing is ive been with my black boyfriend for a very long time and they dont know it. Its a struggle I have to deal with everyday because I know if I where to tell my mother or THAT side of my family I will be hated or even worse hurt.  <br> Ive already met his family and it seems to be getting worse and worse everyday we are together and my family does not know. I dont know what to do.

Silly rabbit trying to derail the topic again...
You didn't have to reply to my Christian post.

One or two posts off topic, then the thread going back on topic, is different than five or so turning into a debate - as it sometimes does.

Well of course.

Silly Jakelong. But, then again, every culture has different ideas of who Christ was.

Its obvious KR is not
Well of course.

I don't believe in God creating humans himself and all that - but I do believe that a higher being could exist - yet he let the Earth itself evolve and create the species' it contains naturally.

God loves all ppl of all races.

Remember "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus."

God only cares that you two really love each other.


Lol, Jake is a Christian.

Do what you feel is right and go with what your heart says.

THE BIBLE IS RACIST, IT TALKES AGAINST RACE MIXING
That's not racism...



There's nothing wrong with interracial dating.
It matters what you think is wrong.

you're not wrong at all. i've completely been where you are. don't let the color of skin keep you from the guy who could turn out to be the man of your dreams.

There's nothing wrong with interracial dating.  I'm white and I've dated a black girl before, and she was one of the best gf's I've ever had.

Okay first off, whitrs dont have an accual race. they come from EVERYWHERE. (im white) and it kinda pisses me off how whites get all racist, atleast when someone else gets racist they know where they're coming from.
AND AGAIN IM WHITE, SO IM NOT RACIST.


AANND! THE BIBLE IS RACIST, IT TALKES AGAINST RACE MIXING. GRR. (IM A CHRISTIAN TOO, SO DONT FREAK)
