When Race is No Longer Important

How many of you really can honestly say that race is not important in your partner? I have come to the conclusion after spending nearly two years with this woman who i have shared my life with that i do not see color when i look at her or when i hold her in my arms. I think the test for us in interracial relationships is when not only the hard times come, but in day to day life when we struggle together and when all reference to something as plastic as race goes out the door. I say when you love someone something like race is not important in the one you love. What is your view?

 

I totally agree on this forum too! The color of my man's skin is the last thing I'm thinking about, ever. I can't imagine how a relationship would be if the color of your skin affected your relationship. I don't see how anyone in an IR could act that way. I don't love my husband for what he looks like but who he is and what he stands for. I know that when I'm down, he understands and is there to pick me up. When he's down, I know what to do and say to bring him back up so we can be the best we can be, together. How can you make the decision to be with someone when you look at their skin and have a problem with it's color?
