batman is verified as being by the original poster of the questionok but i love him and he loves me i'll bet you anything on that and to tell you the truth i can't keep nothing from him, i've never felt this way about anyone i've went out with i've always been able to lie too all the other guys-except him. Plez help me i really don't want us to argue or break up- ilove him, but he said he wo't fight no one over me anymore.
I really don't want to loose him, i told him if we break up 1 more time i might not go out with him for a while

If your boyfriend thinks girls choose a guy based on how physically strong they are then maybe he feels insecure about his other abilities?
Also maybe the black guys do act bad at school. But I bet as you get older, you will see if you can put any prejudice aside, that there are other reasons - not to do with skin color - that cause a difference in the way they behave.

No, if you want to be with this guy, don't tell him about the guy on the bus. He would most likely throw a fit and break up with you again, just as you said.
Your guy is not exactly a modern boy. In thinking that white people are better than others and believing that if he fights for a girl he'll get her as a "prize" he's making himself look like quite the Neanderthal. I find that kind of willingness to get into a fight quite a bad trait as you never know if he's someday going to turn his fists on you. Are you sure he's worth keeping?
