Hey guys I want to tell you my first time with a white guy when I was 18. We were friends Nothing more. Just two kids from Jersey traveling abroad who happened to bump into each other by stereotypical mistake. His White European friends dared him to go and talk to that Black girl sitting on the beach, who was really a Black American girl in disguise. After listening to his tired pick up line, I cut him off and bluntly asked him where he was from. Shocked, he laughed, because he thought I was Brazilian. He wouldn't be the first to make the assumption.
Nonetheless, he invited me back to meet his friends, who were staring at him in disbelief thinking he'd actually succeeded in picking up this "Brazilian girl". He broke the ice immediately and said, that I was American. He invited me to meet up with them to salsa that evening. I wouldn't give him a definite answer, because I had articles to finish and work to do. But he was persistent and followed up by Skyping me that evening again extending his invitation. I still politely declined.
A few days later, he was headed to a nearby island and invited me to come along to explore. I was looking to get away from the city, so I accepted, of course, booking my own hotel room and arriving days late on my own schedule. We spent the following days hanging out, walking the beach, but still keeping things platonic.
He had met and pursued an Ebony girl who was beyond sweet. And frankly, I just wouldn't let my guard down to the idea of hooking up with a White American guy. I was prejudiced, or in kinder words, had a preference for brown beautiful men.
