And i conclude that miserable people just too dam miserable and too busy being dam miserable to see anything good and happy out of anything.

I was going to respond to some thread specifics but its pointless in the same way that the thread topic and initial post is.

People will date and marry whoever they want to and its really no one's business who that person selects to dilute o preserve thier culture with.

Hence the saying "Misery loves company".

Ragga, my life has not been a bed of roses and silver spoons. I've had to work very hard and I've never had any assistance from family or friends to get what I have. There have been days when I had to literally pray myself through the day. Sometimes, tears fell from my eyes before I went to sleep, but I still prayed for a better tomorrow. Yes, life is tough, I've been through some things too, but you get back what you toss out. No one owes anyone anything.

Some people are hateful and they attract the same in people.

Jesus was right: "Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You."

And that's really all I'm doing...

I would be able to relate to the former with much more ease than the latter. I'd be able to communicate comfortably, and just be more chill. I'd quicker be friends with them due to that sense of familiarity that we're from the same place, have similar experiences, can relate to a lot of things, beliefs, values, etc, etc, etc...

Being a Southerner, I could say the same thing in relation to the fact that I'd probably be friendlier to someone from Alabama, Louisiana, North Carolina et al, more so than a Northerner. But the flip side here is that in many cases, I'm not friendlier to people because we come from the same region of the country.

It's funny that you say this because many Southern women in particular seem very keen on West Indian men. There are many from the Caribbean moving to the South and I see relationships between the two groups quite often.

Southerners and West Indians are actually very much alike, albeit there are some cultural differences, yes, but to the discovery of a few West Indians; some say they feel right at home down here.

Go figure.

Basically, I'm attracted to quality traits that mirror mine: Spirituality, kindness, honesty, authenticity of character, family oriented, conservative, etc. That's what attracted me to my fiance. Our values are very much the same.

I believe that is the real issue.

Is she Indian and is thinking that ur indian too? Cause u do know that thats a problem for them, right?

She knows that I'm American.

However, she's biracial. And she's lecturing me.

It's unreal.

I'm searching for clarity...

I was just pointing out where she was coming from given your views on "Inter racial" relationships. Personally, I don't see how you could rightfully be against inter racial marriage and then be perplexed by her stance. The same differences you see in Black and White are the same ones she sees in African American vs West Indian. Moreover, the same arguments you use to justify the AA/WI relationships can be used for Black/White relationships. Question though, would you look down on a Black West Indian being married to a White or non-Black West Indian?
