writes:Are people interested in dating a mixed race person?the reason i ask is i am a mixed race girl , 23 years old , a virgin never had a boyfriend or date and i don't know why . my father white and my mother black. any way i would mind being with someone of another race or religion as long as they were nice to me . no one asked me during my school years even though there are folks out there who say i am pretty they are usually older people not people my age . even though i like what is said some times it annoys me sometimes . though there was a time in middle school some guys said i was cute but i think they were lying . even one guy asked me to be his girl friend in high school i did not know him and he was really ugly and strange . of course around this time i had a crush on a latino boy who did not like me back even though he had flirted with me in the 7th grade and then i kind of told every body we knew in the 8th grade that i liked him . big mistake . though he liked me he did not want to be with me .also forgot to mention that i am 5'1 and weigh 154 and i don't think there is anything wrong with my personality .i did kind of change my appearance to try and get him but still did not work .any way i need advice please .

 Hey - we're all mixed race. Only those people in remote or isolated parts of the world might still be one race.

 Most people do not look at race when they are attracted to someone. What matters most is what is on the inside. I think if you feel better about yourself then you will become more attractive to other people. Never change your appearance to become more appealing to someone else, let the person fall for you just the way you are. Improvements are always good but do it for you not for a guy. You should try going out trying new things, and meeting new people.

 Well, around where i live mixed race girls are considered to be very appealing, i for one love mixed race girls. But individual people have different tastes, some only like white, some only like black, some like asian, etc etc. So really i wouldnt worry about it. My advise to you is to not so much consentrate on trying to find somebody, one will come to you, and chances are it will be out of the blue, and the fact is when somebody comes to you and you like them back, its the best feeling in the world. You are what you are, people who like you for that are the ones to hang onto, they are the ones that wont do you wrong.

 I feel compelled to answer this question as I am biracial myself. You shouldnt be worrying about the race factor. Most people don't look at race when they are dating. They just see what they find attractive in a person, be it looks, personality, height, body figure, etc. In fact, if anything mixed race people tend to be more culturally enriched, because of the combination of the two or more cultures. A lot of people are very into mixed race people, because they are culturally diversed, unique looking, have the best of both worlds, etc.
You are probably just a little too shy, or are not being at the right place at the right time. With everything else, it all depends on character and confidence. It works both ways with men and women. A good suggestion would be to stop effectively looking for potential boyfriends, and you'll see more approaches from men. Good luck.
