INTERRACIAL DATING
TIPS FOR COUPLES




In 2012, 15.1 percent of new marriages were interracial. To many,
interracial relationships are now almost a non-issue; just love
whomever you want to love. To date outside of your race is no
longer the controversial decision it once was. This doesn’t mean
you won’t encounter a few obstacles along the way. Here are some
things to know and consider when entering into an interracial
relationship.



Interracial Dating: Opposites Attract?

Before you start dating anyone, it’s important to know what qualities
you’re looking for in someone. What strengths complement your weaknesses?
What character traits are absolute “musts” for you when searching for Mr.
or Mrs. Right?

If you’re a subscriber to the theory that opposites attract, be aware that
the more significant the differences, the greater the room for potential
conflict. When dating interracially, you’re going to encounter different
histories, different cultures, different traditions, attitudes and
philosophies. Determine what matters most to you. Are you spiritually,
intellectually or emotionally on the same page? Can you agree on gender
roles? It’s easier to celebrate your differences when you have common ground
in the important things.



Interracial Dating: Anticipate Objections

Dating someone outside of your race might not cause you a second of concern,
but you’re likely to find someone who objects to your decision to date someone
who doesn’t look like you. Don’t write off every friend or family member who
raises an eyebrow in your direction; instead, anticipate objections and be
prepared to respond graciously, articulately and without defensiveness.

Some old-school families will consider interracial dating a form of cultural
betrayal. If this applies to one of your families, talk about this with your
significant other early on, strategizing how to be reassure parents that your
relationship has no intention of ignoring or abandoning heritage.



Interracial Dating: Share, Don’t Compare

One of the greatest joys of interracial dating is the opportunity to share
cultural experiences with one another. Celebrate your differences and be
intentional about sharing the foods, music, holidays and traditions you’ve
grown up with. Talk about your childhoods and how you envision your culture
playing into your future. If the relationship gets serious, how will you
ensure that both backgrounds are honored?

Be sure to avoid comparisons that will leave one person’s family or culture
looking less significant than the other. And don’t expect your ties to your
family to be as weak or strong as your partner’s.

Be considerate as you learn about one another. Ask thoughtful questions, avoid
jumping to conclusions, and be willing to have difficult conversations when
cultures clash.

Interracial Dating: Prove ‘Em Wrong Silence your critics with love. Maybe the
skeptics around you haven’t seen a beautiful, healthy, thriving interracial
relationship. Treat each other well — and each other’s families well — and set
an example of grace as family and friends slowly warm up to you and your partner.
