Additional info, added Thursday December 22 2005, 11:53 am: i forgot to say that my friend thinks its weird that hes white and i wonder if ppl will judge me if i date him but i really dont care what other ppl say but i wonder what my family would say.... Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category? Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship? pugluver answered Friday December 23 2005, 4:46 pm: well this is just my opinon but i would never date somebody that does drugs besides drinking beer only 1 botle a week though.people will judge you. but your decision is based on weather your family will judge you and him as a couple. and how much you like him.and if he gets drunk he can go off on you and even die a car crash from drunk driving ask yourself can you handle the possibilties. hoped i helped. plz send feedback

I understand, its easy to have crushes on the bad guys :) Anywho... dont care what your family thinks, or the school thinks, if you like him, then you should like him, it doesnt matter if your black and hes white. Maybe get that best friend of yours to ask him if he likes you, or ask his best friend. Or.. ask him out. It cant be THAT bad if he says no.

rainbowcherrie answered Thursday December 22 2005, 7:36 am: Okay. Firstly, why are you getting all worked up? The guy's white, not fucking green.
One of my best friends is half Ethiopian, he's black and he's only had one black girlfriend, he's had countless white ones though. Also, his two best female friends are me and my other friend and we're white.
I have a little more understanding of the smoking/drinking thing. I wouldn't want to get involved with someone who does bad shit. I don't mind drinking, everyone drinks, smoking I can tolerate but if he does drugs then I'd stay away.
You're not crazy, you're just new to liking people who do stuff that you don't.
I suggest you have a long think about whether you really want to get involved with him, then casually suggest that you guys do something together. Say something like "I've been working on my cooking skills lately, do you think you'd be able to come round and have me cook you a meal sometime to see how I'm getting on?"
If he knocks you back, then just sayd "Okay, don't worry, maybe some other time." And walk away. He won't even realise he's been asked on a date.
