Am I wrong?
I have always had a special love for Asian women. Of all the different Asian people, I feel a special attraction to Japanese women above all the rest. The reason is because I myself am part Japanese, so I feel a special ethnic or cultural connection. Because of this, I have always wanted a relationship with a Japanese woman.
My dilemma is that recently a woman has expressed interest in me, however she is of Philippine decent. She is one of the most beautiful and sweetest women I have ever met and any man who wins her love is the luckiest man on Earth. I would love to date and have a relationship with her, but I can't increase my interest in her because she is not Japanese. Am I wrong? Should I try to change my ideals?
Please keep in mind. I am not racist. I have nothing against Philippine people. They are a wonderful people and many of my friends are from the Philippines.

Damn go for it,lifes to short to look back with regrets
I think just because your attracted and never have looked at a different ethic background doesnt mean you cant be open to other options. I kind of can relate because I used to like skinny dudes and would never look or even think of being with a bigger man but I gave it a shot one day and I just absolutely love bigger men LOL if that dont make sense heres to wrap it up ...((dont never not accept something just because you arent use to it just give it a try and you might think differently of it in the end!!))
While you can't help what you are attracted to, I think ruling women out because of their race is not very open minded. Don't give her a chance if you can't treat her right. But I do think you need to rethink your standards. Why be so narrow?
I don't understand your question. Are you saying you aren't attracted to her? I think you're being way too picky here. Seriously if your requirement for a relationship is Japanese or nothing, you are going to lead a lonely existence. You can't be this narrow-minded when it comes to dating. Love has no boundaries or skin color or ethnicity. Are you really willing to slam the door closed on someone who you might end up having a meaningful relationship with because of her race. It's one thing if you aren't attracted to her, but another if you put this race issue as a rule for dating someone. That actually does sound very racist. And isn't the Philippines in Asia? So, technically she is Asian, just not Japanese.
