Black Woman's Quest for a Golden Knight

went to the dentist, yesterday, when my mother ran into one of her old college buddies. We were watching Jeopardy and she comented on how smart I was. This sparked (what I thought was) a nice conversation. I was talking (as usual) about how I really enjoy Asian culture & what I think of Asian men. Why did I go and do that? This chick went completely off on me! She was telling me how we [black women] have no chance of ever having a relationship such as this.
     I have read many posts from various sites, but there's a part of me that can't help but to wonder if this is true. No one ever really talks about AsioBlack romances especially when it involves us Afro Femmes! She, pretty much, told me every reason under the sun as to why this connection is impossible. From Asian men can't handle us to they don't think dark skin is pretty. She is a little lighter than my mom (who is a medium yellow). Talk about a major slap in the face!
     At the age of 19, my mind is a little fragile & sponge-like. I can & will soak up anything anyone says, deciding on if it will fly or fall in my mind. To me this was like a rocket in space. I am not one to believe everything I hear, but the combination of her 'middle-age wisdom' & how I tend to feel from time to time really began to take a toll on my nerves. I went numb & almost felt like crying. However, I refuse to believe this bitter nonsense. After all, there is a woman on here that talks about her Asioblack marriage & I do have my life ahead of me, right?
     I must admit, though, I am not the prettiest flower in the garden (which is why I haven't posted my pic yet), but I have seen what can be best described as "Cupid's accident". Not ugly, but unattractive femmes (this could be WF, AF, LF or BF) with boyfriends (this could be AM, BM, WM, or LM). This has lead me to wonder what is really important... Personality or Attractiveness? Could it be that she is actually right & the AM/BF Romances are just strokes of luck? Could it be that she is bitter [for unknown reasons] & she doesn't want me to continue my search for my yellow star? Part of me cares & part of me doesn't want to find out. The only thing both sides agree on is that I will continue to seek out my Golden Knight, whoever he may be, until the last beat of my heart. Until then...
     MY QUEST CONTINUES
     Wish Me Luck
