I've been in this situation....
My first boyfriend was Honduran. I thought he was African American when I first met him, but one day I heard him on the phone talking to his mother and he was speaking Spanish. I then asked him over the phone where his parents were from and he told me they were from Honduras. At that point, I knew that there were Spanish people who looked Black, but I never thought I'd date someone Spanish. It was an okay experience; he and I no longer talk b/c I found out he's not the best type of friend to have. Would I do it again? Maybe, just not in the near future. Oh well, you live and you learn....
