Again, I was on a Buzzfeed Youtube watching binge, and I found a video about Race and Relationships, so I'd like to ask.
Does the race of a person matter to you when considering a relationship?

Nope. If I am happy with that person, they treat me right, etc. then it doesn't matter at all. I'm actually currently with some one of another race. :)

For me race doesn't matter at all in a relationship. If we share the same interests and sense of humor all is good.
However, I made the experience that it obviously matters a lot for others cuz I once lost a good online fact as he found out I'm not white.

Race doesn't matter to me in a relationship but personality, preferences do but as peanut said people can be narrow-minded

As long as they have the personality I want, why should it matter?

Not really, but you shouldn't judge those to whom it does matter. Its just a preference, like liking blondes or not liking really really tall people. I wouldn't judge a black guy wouldn't date a white guy or vice versa.

Not really, though I do have certain preferences.

I don't find black guys attractive. It does not stop me from being friend with one, but I cannot be in a relationship if I don't find my partner attractive. Of course, the personality matters too, but I just don't find black people attractive.

It shouldn't, but I might be hypocritical enough to make it matter :(

I don't think race is the biggest obstacle... I'd think religious/cultural differences would be harder to overcome.
That being said, I'm open to people of different races.

Exactly. Especially if you plan to marry and have kids.
But yeah, this is basically my answer as well.

I'm don't want to sound ignorant or anything but I don't find the majority of black women attractive. But if I like them and everything else, the race wouldn't be a problem at all

I hate to be that person, but yes - I do take race into consideration when looking for people.
I feel really bad for stereotyping but as an example I don't really look for black dudes at my school because a good majority of them act super annoying to me. If someone approached me though and I liked them, I wouldn't reject though.
