Because yr white? Or is it the "no one is good enough for my daughter" thing (which is what my parents do)?

It is a matter of some small debate. I am, of course, nowhere near good enough enough for her. A very typical attitude. Hell, I've had the same thought myself at times, tho I'm not so crazy as to try and argue LaTanya out of loving me. So anyway, I'm too old, too poor, too this, too that, and a fair dollop of too the other. Too white is never mentioned. In fact her mother relayed the message, 'He knows it's not cause he's white, right?' I say hmmmm. Her mother was born in 1943. (I think) She came of age in the early 60's. SHe's faced a myriad of struggles and problems, some of which I can't even imagine. Can she just let all that go? Maybe, but if so she's more charitable than I. LaTanya, otoh, says, "Yeah, you wish! That would be easy." How can I not love the girl? She's brilliant, and knows me better than I know myself. (and stills likes me, a source of constant amazement) Her point is true enough, however. If I'm going to be rejected, I would prefer it was on racial grounds because than I could simply reject it ( ... )

Well what Keith and I do is just say "screw it." My parents never totally approve of anybody, yet if I were alone, they would bitch about that too.
