Image description: Two hands clasped together. The hand on the left has had henna applied, a wedding tradition common in India. I was hurt by the blunt response, but honestly, I got off lightly for telling my Indian immigrant parents I was dating a white boy. I do not want to stereotype all Indian parents, but mine were strict and I did have a more reserved upbringing, especially with regard to dating. In India, there still exists very outdated and dangerous relationship prejudices.
Meeting parents is always difficult in a relationship, regardless of the ethnic backgrounds of the people in the coupling. That said, interracial couples have it a bit harder, due to the potential cultural differences. If your boyfriend is Indian and you think Saag Paneer tastes gross, suck it up.
In this melting pot of a world, interracial relationships are actually quite common. As statistics on interracial relationships show, the world is changing for the better on this topic. As people of different races get to know each other better through advances in media and travel, the differences between them naturally blur, and similarities become more obvious. Still, mixed-race relationships can pose unique challenges.
