Racist mom.

You are human! Black guys are human as well! If you feel you get better respect from them....then you've answered your own question. As for your mother....she's scared of what she doesn't even know. "Stick with your own color?" That's foolish...limiting her daughter's happiness. Feel for ya girl. Explore Your World!

Gross.

"Stick with your own kind" is one of the stupidest things ever uttered, as if black people aren't human. Another one is, when you're with your white friends and they say, "I wouldn't want my daughter to marry a black guy." Then they turn to you and say, "No offense against you."

How can you NOT take offense against something like that? Trying to make you feel subhuman, that you're not worthy.

Do what's right for you and what you feel what right in your heart. Your mother doesn't know or own you. If she can't accept that, that's her problem.

Unfortunately it is normal

My aunt liked black guys too, now she is a single mother with 5 kids. Take it for what its worth.

You should have seen the look on my Moms face when I came home with these girls.

I consider myself a respectful and rational person, but if you were my daughter I would disown you.

I'm sorry if that offends you, but it's honestly just the way I feel.

It is normal for older generations to more close - minded then newer ones.

Anyway, you do you, girl.

Grow up and move out. Then make your own decisions for how you want to live your life. It's your only option.

I believe that any long term relationship is difficult enough, without any added pressure from without, because it is interracial. I constantly hear from biracial people how they were not accepted by either race growing up. Are you willing to watch your children growing up in that pain?
I think it is very sad that this happens, but it is a fact of life and should be considered if one wishes to have an interracial relationship and family. Obviously your family will not accept your man, and it's likely his family won't accept you, either. Then what happens to your kids? They may grow up in a loving home, but without any extended family. Love is a wonderful, all encompassing thing, but the reality of a long term interracial relationship is a choice that should be made after considering the difficulties, as well as your love for each other.
