Not at all. As a matter of fact, I'm currently in a relationship with someone of a different race than mine.

How's that working out? Do you get side eyes I could say?

Carver · 31-35, F

@Michaela: I don't know what side eyes means but it's been working out great. We've been together four years and still going strong.

@Carver: stares I could say 👀 "Side eyes" ...anyways, that's great to hear! Congrats

@Michaela: Oh, I see. If we get any dirty looks, I'm sure it's mainly due to us being a same-sex couple rather than an interracial couple. Anyway, thank you. :)

I guess so but race mainly does play a role in this. Some races are seen as "conservative" than others. Indians for example, I mean being part of the LGBT community must be hard! But hatred towards anyone really doesn't bring us as a society anywhere
