Finding love in a racist society as a single mother with a biracial son?
There's several issues that all compound together and make you a really unattractive candidate for dating/marraige. The biggest one by far, is...
I'm a single mother of a biracial son. The black father abandoned me while I was pregnant, he refuses to even see his son or financially assist me with raising our son. First couple of years was really difficult for me, my father disowned me, dropped out of college early and started working. Thankfully my aunt isn't racist as my family, gave me a place to stay and helped me get back on my feet. She has no husband or children of her own and see us as her own kids.
Dating has been rough for me, can't even count how many times I've been rejected... What hurts me the most is I'm not getting rejected because of my looks, personality or status. I'm getting rejected because I'm a mother of a biracial son, It pisses me the fuck off. What difference does it make if my son is biracial? Regardless of color, a child is a child. Obama was biracial, he became the president of the united states so what's the big deal if my child is biracial? They have no problem with me being a single mother but once I tell them the color of child the racists just run away...
Sorry guys for the rant, I'm just so depressed right now. I want to find someone who will love me and take care of me but just so difficult in our current society. Do any of you have any similar life stories or advice for me? "
