<p>Ya, creeped out was probably just a hastily picked word.</p>
<p>I’m from elsewhere, and have lived in very white neighborhoods in the Mid-west. Never felt awkward, unaccepted, and definitely never creeped out.</p>
<p>Advice to my 3 kids is :God bless you if you meet someone who unconditionally loves you. Be happy. Life is too short. Haha, they immediately fell in love with kids from ‘other races’.</p>
