Be open and honest with your partner and also willing to compromise. I'm currently in a cross-cultural relationship. Often times when my boyfriend does something that I don't understand I ask him about, sometimes its because of our cultural differences, and sometimes it is just individual differences. He does the same with me. If there is something that I do that he thinks is strange or he is uncomfortable with he asks me about it. Again, sometimes it is the cultural difference, other times it is just my personality. This helps us understand each other. Sometimes it is difficult and confusing, but I think it is worth it. As for the difference in race, so far we have no had any difficulties with this. Both our families and friends are very accepting of our relationship and race has not been an issue.

You love and are loved. You talk, and listen. You break cultural barriers. You compromise a lot. You look first for the happiness of your partner. You enjoy the differences in culture. You learn.

In my opinion,the following are helpful. 1. unconditional love. 2. appreciate the cultures and the differences. 3.Sacrifice(Kuch pane ke liye kuch khona hoga.), Here sacrifcing ego will be the foremost. 4. love does not deamnd, it gives only( remebmer this doctrine) You need not manage anything, YOU MIX INGREDIENTS WELL!!!!!!!!!!! You have a beatiful and heady cocktile named LOVE.

I communicate through "good lovin'"

If their is understand within the two people then there is a relationship. So culture and race should not be an obsticle, but more of an adventure because there will be so much to learn from each other. Then when love grows just remeber love has no boundaries...........
