    Both move to Mass... so many interracial couples here and NO ONE gets bothered.. just saying for those down south who say the North is so bad... ah no. Other than that...ask him to go have a smoothie after the workout...just do it!

    Yes , down south is totally different than up north. The only thing with asking him for a smoothie after is that i work out at 9:30 pm :(

    "Hey, I really like you but don't think we can be together here. Let's move to Massachusetts because a stranger on the internet said it's allowed there."

    Um... are u really taking that seriously? Like who the F would move? Ugh... stay incogNEATO bc ur answer was just dumb....

    What answer are you talking about? I basically paraphrased what you told her. So..

    I read the bolded part like this by the way:

    Isn't Netflix and Chill a thing. I know you're down south, but consider Hulu and Chill to get down with this.

    As a white male southerner, I'd say if you really like him, say something to him. Start a conversation. See if it leads somewhere. If it's somebody you'd feel interested in and that you "missed out" if you didn't give it a go, then do it.

    But as it sits now YOU are the one being biased for the questions you are asking and not giving him a chance.

    I've seen bigotry in action even here in squeaky-nice Canada. But I believe you have to go looking for it. Stare the fools down I say.

    When my son-in-law attended his citizenship ceremony with wife and child, his family got rude stares and sneers from a pot-bellied white balding ignoramus who apparently was there with his filipino mail-order bride and parents. My daughter stared him down while my son-in-law shrugged, "What are you going to do?"

    Not that I have any biases against white middle-aged balding pot-bellied ignoramuses who have to buy their brides.

    i'm a white boy and my ex was a dark skinned girl. i had no ragrets. you should go for it. he may not be interested but if he's a regular type dude, he'll prob go for it too. doesn't mean you have to get married or anything. just give him your number.

    You should get that tattooed on your back.

    I live in northeast Florida as well, and have no shortage of friends in interracial relationships. I don't think most people would bat an eye. He may or may not have an issue with the color of your skin, but you'll never know if you don't approach him.

    I've lived in AL, GA or LA my entire life! This is a generational thing. Our parents or grandparents may have had to deal with this kind of stuff but not our generation. I've always had a firm policy when it comes to dating women of color...if she's firm enough I'll date her!

    Go for it! Life is short. He could be your Prince Charming but you'll never know if you don't take a risk.
