would you ever date someone outside of your race?

Personally it isn't for me but I was wondering what the majority of the people think.

    Of course! I am Asian and married to a Caucasian guy. Honestly, I find that it's so enriching to not only have your own culture to also learn more about someone else's. It keeps you very open-minded too.

    I have found that it is very interesting to date people out of my race. Especially because they got these crazy fun personality traits that just keep you laughing and having a good time. Sometimes they even have the ability to make you feel like you are the most good looking thing on the planet too. I found this in mostly black people but, it could happen in with any race.

    Yes, I was engaged to a Korean guy - didn't work out though. My ex-husband is Spanish - no biggie! And to clarify this, their race had nothing to do with the breakups either.

    Yes

    Yes, but only if grown up in the same culture and not in a very different country or even a ghetto like Chinatown or so.

    I too have never been presented with the situation, but much of my response would be determined on if there was true compatability and chemistry with the other person, and if it would be culturably feasible.

    yes i currently am and i think to each his own who am i to judge other people? essentialy that is what you are doing when you dont date someone just because they are a different race than you. we were all created by One how do you think He feels that His creations judge his other creations? i would think it would hurt Him to see we are focused on such a small aspect of one's being.

    Color isn't an issue for me; culture is. I probably wouldn't date anyone with an upbringing that is very different from my own. My husband is of Mexican descent, but he's totally American.

    Yeah I would. I have before. I'm asian, but I have dated a caucasian guy and a Jewish guy. To me, race doesn't really matter. As long as I like him and he likes me.
