Love is blind. Love does not choose skin color, language, race, religion, or sexuality. As humans, we frequently don’t have any control over who we love. We can deduce why we fall in love with those we love, but controlling who falls the long way can prove to be quite difficult. That’s why love experts will say that love is certainly blind.
Society, however, has a say in most of the events that occur in our lives. Society decides what clothes we should wear, how we should eat, what jobs we should do. The trick, although, is not letting society tell you how you should live. They say the saddest person in the world is the one who tries to please everybody. Why not choose happiness and please yourself? Give yourself the happiness you deserve. Love whoever you want to love, black or white.
Interracial dating, for example, has faced tremendous criticism all over the world. Society still grapples with the undeniable fact that white men can really fall in love with black women and vice versa. Indian women who marry non-Indian men also face the same bashing.
As humans, we tend to worry about what people will say or what image we will present to society. We tend to overthink situations, and this can stop us from achieving great happiness. Imagine if Prince Harry was worried about what the rest of the world would say if he married a black woman. He will pass up the chance of dating his soulmate. Sometimes, the most vital decisions we make in life are those that aren’t influenced by outside opinion.
Below are six negative things people say about interracial dating:
- It’s hard enough to meet and bond with people of various races.
The internet has made this quite easy as there are tons of interracial dating sites that you can enter and meet your perfect match. Your dream partner is just a button away. you can get to chatting with girls of various races and fall in love happily.
- The relationship won’t last long.
Maintaining a relationship requires effort from both parties. You have to actually work on the relationship to achieve success. Most people give up too early or succumb to societal pressure. This belief is a fallacy.
- The family may not value the relationship.
This most frequently comes right down to the family itself, and it’s the couple who really convince their family that their love is worth it.
- The couple would disagree on nearly anything because of cultural differences.
This is not completely true. People fall in love because they’ve something in common. Differences of opinion normally exist in every relationship. What matters is how partners act on those differences.
- One of the pair is a gold digger.
Most people assume that in interracial dating, most people aren’t driven by love, but rather by their love of money.
- Children will face criticism in the future.
This is a stereotypical lie because the type of environment you place your child in will determine whether or not they will be criticized. Some of the most lovely kids were born from interracial relations.
There’s a lot to smile about in interracial relationships. However, you must be confident enough and not let society dictate who you should date.
