hiya...

i think if you are just yourself you can find someone who completely appreciates you for who you are, i don't think ppl have pre-conceived notions of black women not ones they take seriously..wait let me rephrase that... i don't think that is a general rule..of course you have some ignorant ppl out there but you don't want to date them anyway...my bf is white as well...i met him at work as a nurse and he was a podiatry resident...we are total opposites if you look at us... i am short and very darkskinned he is very tall and pale;-) but u can't judge ppl by their appearances... i guess if you only want to date black men...which is understandable..then u may have a hard time in med school because their aren't that many minorities enrolled medical schools and i think there are more black women than black men ( i could be mistaken though)...however i think if you expand your horizons...follow the advice on this thread..go out meet ppl...you won't have a hard time at all...and my grandmother always told me that you can't make it happen u have to let it happen...if you go to school...focus on meeting new friends not just a soul mate...establishing general connections...working hard...then i bet it will all just fall into place...

good luck
