I saw picture of this light bright girl I went to HS with. She married a dude who was just as light as her. It looked weird for reasons I can't quite explain.

I always was truly more attracted to darker men. Because my dad is light as hell, and so are all the men in his family. So I went for the opposite. My mom's side of the family is full of caramel colors like me. I ended up marrying darker. He's at least 3 shades darker.

And people in NYC seem to think I'm light skinned. Where in Chicago I'd never be considered light. Light skinned in NYC just means Dominican.
