I am .5 Basque Spanish and .5 Native American. My H is primarily Italian and has some french as well.<P>I've don't believe our Nationality differences caused us to be compatability-challenged.<P>H and I share love of the same foods (Pasta!), music, movies, sports, spirituality, etc. BUT ... as far as morals go, altho my H was raised in a very tradional family oriented environment, from the age of 16 and forward he was on the road as a musician, not the most wholesome life. I think it tainted his perception of what was acceptable regarding relationships and sex.<P>Ughhhhhh!<P>Jo<p>[This message has been edited by Resilient (edited August 09, 2001).]

Best described as American Polyglot. LOL<P>50% Ukranian (my mother's side, both material grandparents were from small villages in the Ukraine). 25% English (Wales), 12.5% Irish, 12.5% Scot (father's side).<P>The Ukranian side, however is "generic" Ukranian. Who knows what impact events like the Mongol Horde, and various other invaders through the ages have had on the genetic mix there. Unfortunately, the records were destroyed during WWII (as was the village).<P>The family tree is well-documented on my father's side, so there is no guess-work there.<P>Godspeed,<BR>STL

Just curious...are you under the impression or belief that your nationality has something or everything to do with your/or his affair? You would most definitely be wrong. <BR>Regardless of race, we all make life choices that may or may not be good. <BR>For instance...I have read that Amer Indians and Germans are hotheaded and easily angered...I am 1/2 of each and I nor anyone I know, considers me hotheaded. Outspoken, yes.<BR>My H is 1/2 Italian/ 1/2 Welsh...according to popular belief, Italians are naturaly romantics and Welsh are overbearing...he has learned to be romantic and the other part, well, lets just say he's working on that too. ;-)~<P>In conclusion, I have learned not to generalize or group races and stereotypes.<BR>

Me: American. I don't know--I have brown eyes and dark brown hair and grew up on a little farm right outside the reservation, whatever that makes me. My dad's whole family is Mormon, my mom's whole family are Indian and followed a faith of "nature," (what could you call that?) They practiced basically no religion in our home. When I was 13, I went to live with my aunt and uncle on the res. Farm life was comfortable, simple, and happy. We were not rich but, we wanted for nothing.<P>Him: Irish--he grew up in the "hood." In the projects. It was a dog-eat-dog world with much crime, where you could trust no one. His family was very poor. He used to be Catholique, from a very Catholique family. Now he's an Atheist.<P>I do believe that it does very much matter where you are from and what your roots are. Much of a person is a product of his environment.<P>

Well, I guess you might say that I'm "Heinz 57". ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/wink.gif) <P>However, from genealogy research, it appears that I am mostly German, with some Scottish blood, some Irish blood, some English, and supposedly have some either Choctaw or Chickasaw Indian ancestry.<P>H had German g-grandparents, and has quite a bit of Irish, English, and a dab of French ancestry.<P>Oh, and get this: We met on a blind date, married 7 months later. Two months later, I met his grandmother. As grandmothers are inclined to do, she set about finding about every detail about my family. Turns out that my great-aunt married her first cousin! Small world, huh?

a mental note:<BR> This thread has nothing to do with race compatability. Just a thought that went through my head as i was reading a certain post.... it wasnt meant to be put out there like what races are compatable or not...<BR>hoewver i have to agree with Resilent on having tainted morals and perceptions depending on you were raised... <P>
