Interracial Dating: Making Choices
When two people meet and fall in love with each other, the last thing they’re probably thinking about is that they’re not of the same race. Instead, love is usually colorblind and they only know that they love each other. They don’t care about the differences in their races or their cultures. Rather they’re thinking about all of the same things that couples of the same race are thinking. They’re planning their next night out, what they’ll do, and if they’ll get married someday. Unfortunately, in spite of the fact that interracial couples have the same feelings of love as anyone else, they face a different set of choices that same race couples typically don’t have to.
Astoundingly enough, the worst of these choices come from the people that are supposed to love you the most and want your happiness above all else: Your family. This includes parents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles and grandparents. These people that claim to want only the best for you because they love you can, often times, be the cause of your deepest hurt and unhappiness. How is this possible, you wonder? It happens when you first bring your partner of a different race home with you to meet your family and they show immediate shock and disapproval.
Sadly, this attitude can go even further. You may be issued an ultimatum that involves choosing between your love and your family. Not only is this an impossible decision for most people, but it’s also very selfish of a family to ask or demand such a thing. However, it’s a rather common occurrence in families where one member is involved in a biracial relationship. To the families, it’s a simple choice because they feel that their family member should love them more than the partner. It’s the whole “blood is thicker than water” scenario.
Many families experience quite a shock when their ultimatum is met with resistance and separation rather than compliance. When a person is irrevocably and unconditionally in love with someone, that person will usually make choices that they wouldn’t make under other conditions. The thing is, these people shouldn’t be forced to make these types of decisions, but in the majority of cases, the family is left behind in favor of the relationship. This happens in spite of blood ties and the amount of pain it brings to everyone.
Families that experience this type of situation often feel that their family member will be miserable without them and will, eventually, make the “right” decision and return home. Of course, this would mean leaving their partner behind. They’re totally baffled when this never happens and the family member chooses, instead, to remain with the partner of another race and build their own family.
Couples that have had to make this choice have still gone on to be very happy together. Even though they will miss the interaction with their families, they made the choice to be happy together rather than to let others bully them by telling them what is best for them. Sometimes choices have to be made for biracial couples to live a happy life.
