mixed race couples- the good, the bad, the laughs

[batnbreakfast]

Hey everyone, I've come to share and will be happy to listen to your experiences. Four weeks ago I met the most amazing woman. She's Cuban... I'm not (pale as a full moon). We made the first steps towards a brighter future for the both of us. Our families are ok with us being together as far as I can tell. Sooner or later we'll run into people who are not. I am ready. Bring it on, life. For today I'm listening to you folks out there... Is that Ok?

My wife is Asian, I'm Hispanic but in the 13 years we've been together, we've never come across any problems. Although maybe it depends on the location. We went to Pahrump, NV once, a rural conservative town, and people assumed she was a domestic worker.

Thank you for sharing. Was there ever a situation that made you both laugh?

**** anyone who cannot accept who you are and who you love. You are two humans, there is nothing "mixed" about the two of you. It is an antiquated idea that needs to be disposed of.
Do I have a mixed marriage because my wife and I have different hair color?

I think if there is any kind of problem, it is about the culture, not about the appearance…

We are raised with a set of beliefs that feel natural to us and that is a part of who we are. It is only the time that tells if it causes some problems…

Indeed. It sure can be complicated to be with someone from a different culture than your own. (not because of what other people may think about you two though, who cares?)

Good luck to you.

Gracias, amigo. I stopped caring what people think about me 3 years ago but I won't tolerate what they say about her. If I ever have to cross that bridge I might be able to do something stupid
