So here's another random comment to spice up your life. This time we treat you to an opinion piece...
*Ice-Cream*: Have the same flavoured ice-cream...
"My, my, my. From the word go I got the impression that you have not personally been in a mixed relationship. Your assumptions are generalised and sound like they have been spoon fed to you by pre-1994 parents (I can say this because mine are the same). I too have certain reservations about mixed relationships but would never go as far as to rule the notion out completely. 1 in 2 relationships end in divorce. Have you done any research into how many mixed relationships fail? You might be surprised...You make learning about someone else’s culture and ways of life sound painful. I have been doing Xhosa at Rhodes and as a White I have learned some pretty incredible things about stuff that I once ridiculed about the culture. What is life without the challenge of embracing new ideas? “If you’re not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space.” You say it yourself; a couple needs to be ‘romantically compatible’, but don’t you think that if love is a chemical response then all the chemicals are the same regardless of you r skin tone?"
