It is fun to know other races. I love to them from other races.

I just joined this forum today, and I'm amazed that a thread that was started 2 years ago has so many replies, and is still going! If I would have posted a message on this thread about 1.5 years ago, I would have definitely said that I only wanted an Asian girl. This is partly because, at the time, that's all I thought I could get, and partly because I didn't truly believe it was possible for me to date a non-Asian girl. Yep, I was a pretty pathetic individual.

Now, though, I'd have to say that I'm an equal opportunity dater

Why wouldn't you believe that you could date a non-Asian girl?
I'm sorry, I'm pretty direct but I think it can help others understand why they got rejected even before trying.

shiho86,

I believed that I could not date a non-asian girl because I had a low sense of self worth, and I also bought into the constant bombardment of negative stereotypes of Asian American men. These images, advertisements, movies, etc., were all things that I believed were true at that time, so in my mind I imposed all kinds of self imposed mental barriers which prevented me from going after non-asian girls, or generally going out and trying to meet girls of any background. Quite frankly, I allowed myself, mentally, to be defeated. The mainstream American media can be a very powerful thing if you allow it to. And I did.

I would see depictions of Asian American men as nerdy, non-sexual, socially awkward, and I'd think things like "man, if only thee were more depictions of Asian Americans in a positive light, then girls would like me. Until, then, they will probably all think that I'm a nerdy and non-sexual guy." I later learned that this was only a reality that existed in my imagination, and I have no such limitations in my life now. I know this in a very real and tangible way. But at the time, I was completely defeated.

No.. not really!
Now a days. i see many asian guys going out with non-asians

it depends on the persoanlity as well.. like some people from when they are young only like asian guys

Since I'm an asian guy I would want an asian girl only because her body type compliments mines and Minds..
