My advice to tamara before you get married both of you seek a marriage advice counsellor, most men would rather rent before they they buy, i don't have a problem with inter-racial dating or mixed marriages sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't but this is america not exactly a post racial country is it? their is a lot of mixed relationships in the uk and people don't blink and eye, italy if a white man is with a black girl they think the black woman is some sort of slave, if they were to live in the south of the united states they probably would last their long, some parts of europe accept mixed realtionships some people don't but love is stronger than death, the guy could be a stand up kind of guy but journalist i don't really trust and in particular fox news which is a right wing organisation that is all i was pointing out, having money doesn't detach mixed couples from all that is happening when they go to separte places they see how they are viewed separtely and as a couple and how people really feel about them.

To quitehonestly- Dude, you "quite honestly" need to be quiet. You ramble in your writings and you make no sense at all. I can see why BV deletes your messages.

Thank you i agree with you 100 percent. They are showing that they think black people shouldn't marry anyone else besides another black and that blacks have no commen sense. Do they even consider what Dr.Martin Luther King Jr. went thru to get blacks where blacks are. Im bi-racial but I still support SMART black people all around, because i have black in me and i will not be ashamed of my Background just because someone commented some stupid mess.

This is what the White people want us to do. If black people keep getting married and have children with the whitier skined people, THERE WILL BE NO MORE BLACK PEOPLE. duh! " GENECIDE "
KEEP OUR BABIES BROWN AND DARK SKINNED, FOR THE CONTINUATION OF OUR BLACK NATIONALITY STOP MARRYING AND REPRODUCING WITH WHITE SKINNED PEOPLE!
STOP BEING RACE TRAITORS! KEEP BLACK DNA ALIVE AND STRONG. TOO MUCH CREAM MAKES THE COFFEE TASTE TERRIBLE!
