I've also kissed many different white Europeans (in my dreams), everyone from bullfighters, opera singers, chefs, models, lawyers...the list goes on. A recent dream had me locking lips with various opera characters like Alfredo from La Traviata, Rudolfo from La Bohome and Don Jose from Carmen--but that's a whole other topic entirely.<br /><br />It's no surprise to my folks that I wish to marry a white (European!) one day. I told my mother this and she looked at me like I was crazy and my dad, although he won't admit it, prefer that I marry a black man. Ditto for my extended family. It's something I can't explain and it's a personal choice for me. The topic is taboo and rarely included in a conversation. But one of my aunts told me, "You need to go to Europe and find you a white husband." <br /><br />I never see interracial couples at my college and it's not something I come by often. I never found myself physically attracted to a black man in my life and probably never will. Just look at Whoopi Goldberg and Thandie Newton, both of whom are known for their preference of white men. Anyway, I know the right man is out there somewhere. All I have to do is find him, or let him find me. That's my two cents.<br /><br />Happy Loving Day!Deenoreply@blogger.com
