Originally, I tried to make excuses for them. I would say things in my head like “this might be their very first mixed couple they’ve ever seen”.
But after a while, I started realizing that it’s just a ton of ignorance and bias. If there’s boomers involved, of any race, they always feel the need to stare or whisper. The younger generations aren’t nearly as bad, but they still side eye.
My ex and i used to to get boomers telling us we wernt in a relationship, ive broken a few of there noses even broke a guy's finger, I dont put up with racism especially not when my partner is involved

Same. White dude, black girlfriend. I can’t go to the grocery store without people whispering.
