Interatial couples
I'm 15 and I've been with this 16 year old boy for a couple of months now and my mom really loves him since he's a big change from the losers I've been with. My dad finally got to meet him and the first thing that pops out of his mouth is you need to cut your hair. Then I was told by my younger brother that as soon as I left the room my dad said so he's Cambodian to my mom (but in Spanish so they wouldn't be able to understand). My dad is the only one who has a problem with me being with him. My whole family loves him, my dad wants me to be with a Hispanic boy but what I really don't get is he never had a problem with my half sister marrying a man out of our Puerto Rican race. It just doesn't make any sense to me, my mom is always arguing with my dad cuz he's always asking "so is she still with that boy". A lot of my hispanic friends are told by their parents that they can have relationships with people of other races but they will marry someone of their own race. I really think this is pure ignorance.



I know many puerto ricans who don't like to date within their race, but its their choice if they want to or not. My family isn't against the whole dating outside your race, thats because my family is very mixed.
Let your father think what he wants. He have to learn to accept it. If not, then he'll be missing out on so much.
It's your choice who you date, not your fathers. But be careful- some parents are not very willing to hear how their kids opinions differ from theirs.
i say this, do you because you are not going to be able to please your parents all the time trust me, its all about what you want, and no matter what your boyfriend does he's never going to be happy with it, as long as your boyfriend makes you happy then that's all that matters, you are still young don't be ashame to expand your taste, who knows you might end up with a Hispanic in the future but it's up the you and what you like. Don't worry eventually your dad will come around if not, then he's only hurting himself in the end.
