i think what you said is sweet and yes it is rear to find someone that is your soulmate and love is colour blind and you don’t choose who you love it chooses you and when you find that person it is true sometimes it is the person that you never expect urself to be with but when it happens it is wonderful

I have met and fallen in love with a absolutely beautiful woman who is happens to own a lovely brown skin.Whats so marvelous about her is her spirit and personality.I was not looking for this kind of black/white relationship,but I can honestly say I thank God for her love daily.
I have NEVER met someone as wonderful as she in 51 years of life.I feel so fullfilled and content with her in my life.I can only hope and pray that we can enjoy our lives unmolested by the exstremists of either side of this debate.
I dont think of my as black /white/red/yellow or any other color. What I do think of is about our daily life together, and the extraordinary contentment and peace I enjoy being with her.
I would love any color that could offer such a rare gift. And trust me on this people.This lady I will cherish and protect and provide for as long as I live.I hope each of you are graced with such happiness in your lives.

that interesting. It is slightly different but similar for mixed race women in the u.k, because 70% of them are married to white men (so as you can see it is not true that just many mixed men are with white women same goes for mixed race women with white men) , 15% to black men (slightly more common that mixed race men with black women), 11% to other mixed race men (i think the main reason for it being lower than with mixed men has something to with age) and 4% to other (mainly asian like indian for example). I am suprised by these stastists because i am mixed race and evan though i have noticed mixed race people with white people i didin’t know it was to this extent. first of all i woulden’t expect because it is not as often you hear about 1/4 black 3/4 black people (there are probably more of them under 18) than you hear of 1/2 black and white people. also i would have expected more of them to want to be with ethnic minoritys. but i suppose them being part white and liveing around more of them may be the main cause. of from that, statitics show that 48% of black men here are marred to white women and the rest mainly to black or mixed women, and 1 third of black women are with white men.
