I tried not to make this an issue for me, but it is. How do you feel about dating a black man who has a history of dating mostly white women or a preference for white women?
Growing up/living in a predominantly white area myself, I can completely understand when a BM or BW chooses to date outside their race because of the common ground (upbringing, hobbies, interests, peers, etc.) they share with the type of people they grew up with (non-black). When BM or BW exclude other BM/BW based on physical attributes or stereotypes, I have a harder time understanding it.
Anyways, one of the guys I'm casually dating (black) has mostly images of white women, black men, WW/BM couples, and biracial kids on his friends list. To be brutally honest, I sometimes worry that as a BW, maybe he's willing to casually date and maybe sleep with me (we haven't yet) but may not want me as a GF since he seems to have a preference/ideal. Should I feel anxious about something like this? Ask him about the type of girls he usually dates/is attracted to? Or leave it alone?
