Hmmm, Ilovemyglo, I think I can kinda understand where you are coming from.
I too want my parents to approve of who I date because they want the best for me, but on the other hand, they totally trust my judgement. If they wanted me to stop dating a person, they will have a legitimate reason other than skin color. I mean, they might not like it, but they know me and will eventually get used to it. Love is where you find it, and my parents have always told me "foresake mother, father, sister, and brother" when it comes to a soul mate (I think they got that from somewhere in the bible). Now with my brother, it is veeery different because he is colorstruck (or at least he used to be). Light skin girls, Hispanic girls, some white girls were all he used to talk about
. That really hurt me because it was like a slap in the face. My parents are extra careful about him and who he sees because he is a star athlete and alll kinds of hoochies call the house. They are worried that white girls will use him just to "see what it's like" or that some girl's redneck father will come after him with a noose and shotgun. When he really grows up, matures, and finds someone, I'm sure my parents will approve but for right now, they can see straight through the bullshit.
