Question Posted Wednesday February 25 2009, 9:21 pm
I was dating this guy for a year and everything was going really well and we got on so well. But about a month ago he dumped me he said he couldnt go out with me eneymore as becouse me being mixed raced confuses things too much and he wants to now stick with his own race which is white. I dont know where it came from as he is not a racist has he dated me and I really love him and I dont know what to do. Should I have it out with him or not. Or maybe he thinks I am weird.
Have you met his family and/or friends? Perhaps they are pressuring him. You don't say how old you are. If you are young and he is young, then he is easier to influence by family and friends. If you're both older, then he has no backbone.
Either way, if he was a man and if he really cared for you, race would not be an issue. I know whereof I speak because I, myself, am in a mixed relationship and my husband would move mountains for me and disassociate himself from anybody who didn't accept me.
Be glad he dumped you! He did you a big favor! I know you're hurting now, but, in the long run, this is the best thing and you will get over him. [ Smartone's advice column | Ask Smartone A Question ]
