Dirty looks

Makaela โ€ข 21 years old and married ttc for baby #1
By our appearances, my husband is black and white and I'm just white (we are both mixed with a huge list of things) and we still get dirty looks and rude comments towards us. Does anyone else have this problem or am I reading to much into it?

People hate it when you remind them of how uncomfortable they are with difference.

My husband is Mexican and White and I'm black. Whenever we're out we still get dirty looks. It used to annoy me but I realized that you can't let it get to you. Why let someone else's close mindedness ruin your happiness I just smile and keep on going. Be strong, you'll be okay.

My husband is Filipino and I'm white. We get dirty looks and nasty words said, especially to me. Don't pay them any mind. If you and your SO are happy, fuck all of them. Do you and live a happy, drama free life โ˜บ

I have had family friends tell my PARENTS that they shouldn't allow me to date him because he is black & will amount to nothing. I do say something from time to time to the rude comments but I've just gotten used to them by now. It's sad that people still see color that way nowadays.

Lol my husband is fully black Iโ€™m fully Italian and black women throw shade towards me all day but itโ€™s pure jealousy and we find it shallow and pay no mind to it. We get treated differently in restaurants normal outings just typical stuff. Black women will give me one look and act like i ainโ€™t there and just talk to my husband if they servicing us in any type of way but he knows who Queen and shows all respect and donโ€™t give into the petty shit ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ i just sit theyโ€™re and look pretty like heyyyy get over it boo ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ itโ€™s very sad but it honestly amusing me hope one day theyโ€™ll get over it ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ itโ€™s very RARE you find a black woman who isnโ€™t intimidated or jealous by me when Iโ€™m with my husband and on a brighter note were having a girl due April ๐Ÿ’– Let the love grow ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘ง๐Ÿ‘ง๐Ÿฝ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’๐Ÿป positive vibes only

I'm white, and my fiancรฉ is black, and white boys ask me all the time why I don't like white or mexican guys. Like why should it matter?

Im southeast asian, and my boyfriend is caucasian. Everytime we go shopping at asian farmers market or asian populated stores, we both get dirty looks. I watched a sweet old asian lady look at my boyfriend like he killed a puppy! But I never take it personally, we both dont. We actually just laugh it off and i hold his hand tighter and kiss him longer to show the people, "I love this man so much, I dont see skin color, just the goodness of his soul". I love showing him off to the narrow minded population that believes interracial marriage is bad! Because i sm happy, and that's all that matters to me.

Yes!!! I'm white and my SO is Cuban Black. When someone gives up a dirty look, I hold his arm a big tighter and lean into his arm or chest.
