We've just met up with our interracial friends in Corfu again, they look gorgeous together!  |

I think it depends where you live.
There are very few black folk in Chester, and until about 2 years ago we never saw any!
So that would have raised a few eyebrows, albeit silently.

I'm not part of an interracial couple so I can't speak from personal experience, but I see a lot around and 99% of people don't seem to have an issue with it.

Really? I live in Chester in quite a diverse area. I suppose it depends whereabouts you live? |

"Yes. People do look compared to same race couples. This is from 1st hand experience.
Does it make you feel uncomfortable? "
Not really. One gets used to it, but to be honest I turn a blind eye to it. The more you think about it, the more paranoid you become.

I had a social with a black guy a few months ago. When I arrived at the pub he was in the car park waiting. He told me he wouldn't go in because in places like that people would stop and stare at us!!!
I was quite miffed because he felt like that tbh as it's now 2018!!
Anyway we ended up going somewhere where he felt a bit more comfortable. |

I very rarely see mixed couples in Liverpool, compared to other big cities like Brum etc.Go to "ordinary" pubs and bars in Lpool and you will rarely see a black face , I'm talking city centre not just out in the suburbs.
Mate of mine here had an Egyptian boyfriend a couple of years ago, but couldn't tell her family...crazy

No, but if I did happen to have a black or Asian or blue fella covered in glitter, #youknowwhoyouare, I wouldn't give a toss if someone raised an eyebrow!
I can't speak for the fella,being seen out with a Ginger though!  |
