Dirty looks...
Ok this has been on my mind since I came back from lunch and I just have to write about it otherwise I won’t quit thinking about it. What is up with the dirty looks I get from Asian guys?? I was with my boyfriend and we met up at Taco Bell for lunch. At his last job it was rare that we could meet up for a decent lunch since we worked so far apart. Him being closer is very nice since it means more lunches together. :) Any who, the Taco Bell we went to had mainly an Asian staff and mainly guys. Each one of them was nice to me until I called him one of my pet names, sweetie. After that it was death stares from all of them. No more smiles. No more twinkling eyes. /sigh If I wanted that kind of treatment I’d go back to that Asian store and have the mean oji-san make me feel like I was 2 inches tall and a disgrace to Koreans again.
What’s up with that? Why does this keep happening to me? It’s like I keep taking two steps forward and three steps back in my confidence. I grew up with race never being an issue so now that I’m older and in the “real world” each time this happens it’s a huge blow. Maybe it’s because I grew up being the only Asian in the group that this never happened when I was younger? Does it really matter if I’m not with someone who’s Asian? Is keeping the Korean bloodline pure that important? When I look in the mirror I can only tell I’m Asian by my eyes. My boyfriend laughs and says my looks show anyone who’s seen a full blooded Korean before that I am one, but can everyone tell? Am I once again the odd man out? Will I forever be getting these dirty looks and snide remarks about how I’m not being a good Korean? I know not everyone is like this, but why do I keep meeting them? For every nice Asian out there I meet I meet 20 more that treat me like crap. I wish I still could talk to Vong. He always made me feel like how I am is ok and liked how I went against the “norm” and expected. /sigh
I hate that. But at the same time, I like the family-feel that we have...everyon'es an aunt or uncle or whatever...

I don't even think where I work has a large Korean community so where in the world am I supposed to find another Korean guy who will understand that we'll never ever ever have kids? I semi-dating a Chinese guy once who I left as soon as he TOLD me I was going to have 8 kids. When I said no he said, ok fine...6... o_0

awwwwwwwww noooooooo!!! >_=you know what other symbol there will be here ^^;;=
=sigh= i think i know why they do that... it's because... well, for an asian, i think they might be a little racist and think that asians should only date asians or whatnot... so they're like... unable to accept the fact that even though you LOOK asian, youre habits are not asian, and you dont date one.
either that, or they're just jealous of him ;) XDDDDD

Actually, my parents are like that. Of course, they would never be so rude as to glare at someone just because they're dating someone of the other race. It's just they "prefer," to see koreans dating koreans (not even other asians), and in marriage it's a must. If I wanted to date a caucasian, I'd have to through a hell of a lot of trouble, even then my father and mother wouldn't approve. They seem to care more about me then my elder siblings in this matter.
