Some of you may be aware that I experienced some very prejudiced behaviour from my family when they found out about my white girlfriend (http://www.b3ta.com/questions/prejudice/post682233). This is an update on that situation.
Just yesterday the girlf and I had a sit down chat and she felt that it would be best if we weren't together anymore. Obviously, I was quite taken aback and felt like I was hit in the stomach but, in the cold light of day, it was the best thing to do. Despite the obvious racial and cultural differences (though I still feel that these obstacles can be overcome, as is evidenced by the multitude of inter-racial couples), there were incompatibility issues and she felt that I would be better suited to someone else instead of her. This was very hard to take, especially as I still consider her to be my soulmate and the person I'm meant to be with, as she is everything that I've been looking for in a person. Still, the decision has been made and I have to accept it and move on. We still care about each other a great deal and we want to remain friends but I know it's going to take me an awful long time to heal before I can go down that road.
I would like to take this time to thank you for the supportive words from my previous post, it really meant a lot to me and helped me at that point. To those of you who are in similar relationships, don't lose hope and stay strong. I still firmly believe that no obstacle is insurmountable, despite my current situation.
Thanks for reading.

because that suggests massive failings in other areas.

I mean, you still love them really but a healthy dose of misogyny is yer only man for breaking up with a bird. Get ye down yer local CD shop and buy some Dr Dre, 'The Chronic' and 'Chronic 2000' for example then buy/steal/d/l lots of porn and visit strip clubs and stuff. It's both distraction and perspective. That whole, 'she's so precious like an angel' shit fairly gets tempered when you can see what her counterparts had for breakfast.
Once you feel a bit more normal again, you can get back to holding doors and telling them their hair is pretty and all that mundane, patronising shit they love.
