Who says that any relationship whether interracial or traditional (same race) cannot be hell. I've seen "same race" relationships that were nothing more than pure hell for those involved. Besides, concerning the "intrusive others", who gives a damned what others think anyway. The black community lives in a fishbowl. Blacks in general are blinded by denial, just like whites. The divide and conquer rule you mentioned is a centuries old tool that people today still have not learned. White women and black men must understand this Machiavellian tool throughly, because its they (white women/black men) who are targeted specifically by white racists and black separatists by those who disapprove of them and their relationship.~ Roberto

Allot of you beat around the bush when discussing Mixed Relationships. Why? If the TRUTH be told, mixed relationships can be hell! On the otherhand, there is always that silver lining around a cloud.
It is such a tradgedy that the overall 'black community' cannot handle mixed marriages/families or mixed children or white women. This is something that may come back to haunt them.
And, as far as the 'white supremisists' or 'black separatists' are concerned, they like nothing better than to divide and conquer.
Do not become like the thing you hate or the thing that wants to destroy you. BE STRONG, HANG ON! KC :-)
