^^ then don't get them up, don't make him your everything because if he doesn't like you it's going to ruin your long friendship. just stay friends, people always like their best friend because you're so close to each other and you share your secrets with each other, and etc. you'll probably get over it

Define American.
It doesn't matter what race you are. The person who commented on your liking of that guy is just really weird. She's probably jealous as well. Hrmph. |

first i wanna say that i hate how some ppl refer to white ppl as "americans". not all americans are white.
anyways, im white, and i date asian and filipino girls.  tons of ppl at my school date ppl of a different race. especially white guys with asian girls. but yeah, just keep ur friendship for now. unless he shows signs of liking/loving you too. then go for it. and try to keep ur friendship afterwards as well. |

I don't know about where you live, but round here interatial relationships aren't anything odd. I mean seriously no one, least here, really cares. A friend of mines brown she's going out with a spanish kid. Clarice is asian and she's dating a white kid.. I could go on, for a LONG time. Anyways I don't think it's a big deal, whoever says it is is messed.. in my opinion.
Oh and as to what lexaa621 said about calling people americans it's true. I mean if you live in america you're american, in other words you're american (there's a break through  ). White would be the proper term, anyways white people aren't even the original americans when you think about it. That'd be Native Americans. Anyways I'm white but I'm not american, so really calling white people american just doesn't work. But I'll stop my rant now, hope every thing works out.

Truth is, that girl who told Kevin that crap IS racist. People might not interracially date in your school, but it's not true at all that AMERICANS don't date people of other races.
There shouldn't be anything holding you back. Don't worry about it, just go for it. And if he doesn't like you because your Asian, then he's just ignorant. Races shouldn't matter at all. We all have the ability to love. The only reason I could see it mattering was if your cultures, traditions, and customs were SO different than they clashed so badly and caused a lot of problems. |

^It doesn't make him old-fashioned. It just shows his preference. my brother and his gf are both asian. They must be old-fashioned at the age of 18 and 17.
Do you really love this dude? Anyways if he's not interested he's not interested. But the whole people date their own race thing is false. I dated a white guy and I'm asian. |

No, race definitely does not matter. Interracial dating happens all the time now. My boyfriend is white and I'm Asian. Unless your crush's parents actually say he can only date other white girls, then you should be allowed to tell him how you feel.

Hold on, she thinks whites are only allowed to be American?
If you're an American citizen, doesn't that make you an American? You can be a Filipino-American, Chinese-American, African American, etc. Right? Prove me wrong but even the whites living in America are decents of foreigners from other countries; just like asians and other ethnics. That girl is stupid and is racist for reasons that aren't even clear to her. I'm filipino dating a latino boy, and I've dated a white boy before. Nothing wrong with that. P.S. Since I'm assuming she's white, I wouldn't be surprised if she ended up with a guy[or girl] who isn't white. End. |

umm... well I've always had this feeling that kind of has to do with this... I've always felt that not very many guys like me because i'm asian. it sounds stupid, but i always get that impression. i mean, it's not EXACTLY racism, but i guess they have their preferences?

 Oh you'd be surprised Group: Member Posts: 2,406 Joined: Mar 2004 Member No: 7,886 |
It should not matter at all about your race. But to some people it does matter.. not in a racist way or anything they just tend to be more comfortable with their own or some other race.
I'll be honest and tell you guys that I'm more comfortable with Korean guys, maybe cause I've only gone out with koreans? I've gone out with a Mexican and.. hm no American yet to my surprise. Buuuut, it's not such a huge deal to me. It's not like we're racist though it's just our comfortability. I need to stop looking down on myself whenever I have a thing with an American, I keep doubting myself that it probably bothers him that I'm Asian. I just find it hard to believe for an American to like a Korean. Not just those two races but including the others too. |
