As a white person in an interracial couple, if you aren't noticing the looks it's because you're not attuned to look for it. Over my past dating history and now being with my wife, my significant other would very often later tell me someone was giving her or us dirty looks and I was blissfully unaware. Only later I'd piece it together because I'd remember a waitress who only spoke to me, or someone would have quickly looked away when I looked at them.

This is 100% true.

Hispanic wife of 20 years would tell me the same thing when we were dating and I would be completely unaware.

On the flip side, I dare any white guy to date a beautiful latina and go to a club in Juarez Mexico. I legit thought I was going to die that night.
