I currently have a beautiful black girlfriend. It was love at first site for both and it was not my first experience with dating a black female but it was her first at dating a white male. I don't think she was really ready for it but as we learned about each other it just happened. Open and honest communication, question and answer, grow and bond. Like two people do regardless of other factors, like skin or age. It's been 1 n 1/2 years and we still are moving forward. So I guess my advice is be your self, try and discover the differences and those things that are the same, and with this you will have much to talk and grow with. Black women and White men are the same as any other couple they want love, kindness and a bond of honesty n commitment. Funny story is early on in our relationship the topic of slavery came up and after about an hour of taking my girlfriend said "I would have never thought I would ever in my life discuss this issue with a white guy, let alone a white guy who was my boyfriend." We have come along way America. She tells me most everyday that the best of her life was the day we first met. I must agree! I am always interested in learning how others have dealt with this issue.

Being a white male I would assume that treating a woman like a woman, with respect, would be common sense for a date with any woman regardless of her race. I have personally had long term relationships with women of many races and one thing holds true a woman is a woman, treat her with dignity, respect, honesty, and politeness. The woman who holds my heart happens to be black, I didn't fall in love with her because of the color of her skin, I fell in love with her heart, her soul and the way she lights up my heart. Come on guys lets use our heads here.... treat the ladies right! Oh and have some damn manners...... didn't your Mother's teach you to hold the door, take the check (unless its her treat), help her with her coat, hold the umbrella, say please and thank you! Quit acting like a bunch of boys and act like men! Very well written article! Wow… I must admit that I am completely amazed that this article had to be written.

Thanks for finally putting it up. Now I have something to refer my white guy friends to, although I KNOW what they're intentions are, and it has lots to do with getting brown skin women in the sack.

Might I add this one, don't automatically start talking about getting under the sheets, and how nice our skin complexions would look on top of each other (I got those exact words from a guy on Match.com). In fact, don't approach Black women as an experiment for yourself or something you can check off from your "100 Top Things to do Before I Die list". Is it wishful thinking that all women should be approached in this manner, no matter what their race is? Just be respectful, and everything will work out well.
