ok theres this girl i kno, she went out with this guy who was from a different race then hers. the girl's cousins were not satisfied with her decison to go out with a guy just because hes of a different race. so then this girl decides to break up becuase otherwise her cuzns will disown her. i just think thats a stupid reason to break up. some people in this world

Well, it was *her* choice. If she had thought that he was truly something special, she probably wouldn't have broken up with him at all, much less see the illusion of 'race'.

umm thier was only 1 reason for breaking up, her cuzns were disowning her.

Disowning? Wow, that's serious. I would break up for that too. Cousins come first, even if they're second.

Uh I don't think I would put my cousins first for something like that. I mean if it was serious enough where they might think about getting married, then nothing on earth (well almost nothing) would make me want to not get married. This is the woman who i am going to spend the rest of my life with and I dont care what my cousins think because I will be with her and not them.


Also breaking up just because of what her cousins think just shows how narrow-minded and shallow she is.

Go ahead and follow what people say, yep..don't think or judge for yourself at all

That's what I was getting at. When you meet someone truly special and worth your time (or at least, worth TA's time for this consideration) what your cousins think isn't going to really affect your decision in whether to stay with them or not. Since she left him because of something so trivial, it shows that he must not have been good enough for her anyways, regardless of 'race'.

Yes, it's stupid that people let others control their decisions, but the world is full of tools.

Right exactly! Trouble is, it's hard to get someone to realize this.. its just the way people are I suppose.

She obviously didnt like him much to start with if shes willing to part with him due to her cousins opinions...
