Do you think that interracial relationships work just fine?

Of course. If they are both happy, then why the hell should anyone else's opinion have an influence?

In my family we have Blacks, Whites, Filipinos, & Mexicans. When we all get together it looks like the a meeting at the United Nations. Everybody gets along in there so many different kinds of food.

Totally and utterly depends on the individual couple. Just like any relationships, some of them work and some of them do not.

It would work if both person would compromise.
I am married to a European although we speak English in the house but, whenever his family comes over or we go over to visit them, they speak on their native language and its quite fine by me.

I knew for a fact when I married someone outside my race that I will be adjusting with their kind of culture and traditions and so as he towards me.

Respect and compromise is the key to a successful relationship regardless of being interracial.

Yes, it can work fine. It takes 2 to make it right.

Both have to really want each other regardless of skin color and cultural differences.

if there's LOVE, anything can survive... xo

Yes and No.

I'm a product...my parents separated when me and my brother were younger. But thats not the case for all. I have friends dated and married to a different race than they are. They've been fine.

Race is the least you need to worry if you are in a relationship. At least for me, its not important at all. Who and how you are as a person does not equate with what race/ethnicity you are in.

Hope this helps.

=D

Yes if the two people really have a truly compatible relationship. The only problem is that there are cultural differences that will arise. So don't be surprised if the person you are with (another ethnicity) thinks that your customs are a little strange or if they've never been exposed to it. And vice versa.

I know a lot of people will say that love sees no color. Which is basically true!!! But cultural differences will arise. But I think over time as you get used to your partners culture differences and customs then it won't be a big deal in the end. The relationship will just be about the two of you.

Yes...and it have been proven a lot of times. As long as the key ingredients to a happy and successful relationship are present, interracial relationships can survive any differences.

Since everyone that I know or even see walking down the street doesn't seem to be made up of just only one race, culture, (however you want to put it), then I certainly hope that interracial relationships work, because if they don't, we're all screwed.

Sunshine

Yes. I think they are wonderful.

But soon all Homo Sapiens will be one race again.

opposite attracts...

H~mÃªÂ®

sure, just like an ordinary couple with an extra ordinary love, honor and respect for each other

BoomBoom :)

Yeah...unless all the people surrounding you are racist, but that doesn't stop you right?

there will bound to be cultural difference
this is espacially true and creates conflict between the parents and also when choosing how to raise a kid
for example, my aunt, whos chinese, married a white man whos a jew.
she wants to raise her child speaking chinese but her husband doesnt.
their parents really dont like each other.
they celebrated different holidays

they ended up getting a divorce

in fact like 50% of interracial relationships among asians and some other race ends up in divorce. soooo interracial relationships definitly isnt as stable in MOST cases as compared to actual same race/cultural marriages.

capitalgentleman

Sure.

I hope so; I am engaged to a woman of a different race (and culture). We have been together for 4 years, and so far, so good.

jitendra

yes it works fine lol.

There has been Indian migration and influence in the Philippines since the precolonial era. The impact of Indian civilization on the Philippines profoundly affected the culture of the Filipinos. About 25% of the words in the Tagalog language are Sanskrit terms and about 5% of the country's population possess Indian ancestry from antiquity. A considerable number of the population in the town of Cainta, Rizal, are descended from Indian soldiers who mutinied against the British Indian Army when the British briefly occupied the Philippines in 1762 to 1763. These Indian soldiers called Sepoy settled in town and intermarried with native females. The Sepoy ancestry of Cainta is very visible today, particularly in Barrio Dayap near Brgy. Sto Nino. Their unique physical characteristics make them distinct from the average Filipinos.

aloha

depends

It is just like every other relationship out there

<3 LOL. XD

I think so. But I've heard from a local friend of mine that her Filipina mother gets beat up by her husband if he isn't in the mood. Although he is very sorry afterwards.

So yeah. It will work out fine if you have the patience. But there will always be fights here and there.

Todd

I'm married to a Filipina and have 1 child. We get along great, mostly because she has conformed to my culture more than I have to hers. I find myself kind of irritated at some of the quirks of Filipino culture, so I think it's difficult. There are differences that pop up as you go along that were not noticed when you date. I hold my tongue mostly and don't ever expect or force her to conform, I don't complain about her and her family talking Tagalog around me, etc, etc....but just having that irritation at some things has shown me that without her changing somewhat more than I did, we probably would have a lot more problems than we do.

NO, it should be white for white, and asian for asian, and colored for colored. works better that way.
