I think I would handle the situation the way the spanish woman did, very nice video I love that show. I'm always surprised when a person doesn't pull out a camera and start recording from their cell phones ... seems like what most people do when drama breaks out. |

The video is sad. Really who is going around harassing other people like that in REAL LIFE. Sad and shameful. |

Very interesting. I only had one problem as I listened to the dialog. The white guy at the bar made the comment , something to the effect "what is she supposed to do lower her standards" That grabbed me the wrong way. But, on the other hand you have to consider the differences in who,what,where,why. |

I still occasionally get 'The Disapproval Look', although I guess that's not really harassment. And it doesn't bother me one bit; that is something THEY need to deal with. |

I can understand the disapproving look. For some people it is very painful to see IR relationships especially when we have people like on this board who constantly berate black women and say other races of women are better. Or when black women berate black men and tell them white men are better. It is painful. But love is love...and if they truly love each other let it go and respect it. But to harass couples and berate them in public is ridiculous. |

All in all, I thought it was an excellent experiment. Even though some of the people were actors/actresses it was something the popped out at you, especially since it happened in public. I know about the glances from both whites and blacks. Took me a long time to come to grips with it, but I finally decided it was the person with the questioning look, who had the problem. |

Yes! They adore him, because of the 7 grandchildren he gave them (among several reasons). He has stood the test of time, lol. At the beginning yes, they were a little concerned, primarily because of financial reasons and we were a little young, but we stood together, supported each other, and built up a nice life together. Although we never became rich (yet!), we are not in debt and we have children that we are very proud of. So my parents are happy for us. Both sets of parents are still living and still together (his parents and mine), so I think this must be kind of rare? Not sure. Edited by Azucar, Feb 14 2011, 10:46 AM.

Wow 7? That's a test of its own lol, it's nice to hear that you both are doing well. Be sure to keep your 7 blessings out of harms way (and disapproving looks way) |
