Otherwise, once I've you've got your back broke in, then you just need to go home. Men and women will never fully understand each other b/c we are two different species and think differently(I'll never know what it is like to be pregnant...thank God), but I do what is like to be followed in the "high-end" shops. That is all I am pointing out. But I believe "if you like it-I love it". Do whatever works for you

This is a valid concern from a worldly perspective. So, it depends on whether or not a relationship is based in God or in man. A relationship based in God automatically has bridges to the inevitable gaps faced by all people - regardless of the distance. So, what we consider to be smaller (the gap between men-problems and women-problems) as well as what we consider to be bigger (the gap between couples of varying races, ages, educational backgrounds, etc.) are completely covered in God.
One thing I am learning is that I have to be extremely patient (as I am often reminded by my fiance) because we DO have very different perspectives and methods of communication.
But, to say that a white woman can't provide enough support to a black man in a serious relationship is taking God completely out of the equation. (Of course, if that's where you stand, I know where you're coming from.)
