Being a part of an interracial relationship is something that was once upon a time, unthinkable and unheard of. I’m so thankful that the times have changed and I’m able to pursue a relationship like this. And without further ado, here are the seven things:

1. If you lived in [Insert Era] Your relationship would be illegal.

Well, we don't live in that era, hate to break it to you.

2. How did you meet?

Why does it really matter honestly? But I met him at a YoungLife Camp.

3. Your kids will be SUPER cute!

I promise you, they'll still be cute regardless of who I'm in a relationship with.

4. But don’t you want kids that look like you?

Did you take Freshman Biology? My kids will be half of me and half of him. They'll look like me.

5. I thought you’d rather date your own race?!

6. Is it weird to date someone different?

No, and I would hope not. I feel like you should date someone different because then you can be a part of something bigger than yourself. It's the differences that make us unique.

7. Are your parents okay with them?

100% yes. And so do my siblings and grandparents thank you for asking.
