PERSONAL Q&A | Interracial Couple, Living together before marriage?? Kids?!?!

[@mariella3172]

I'm from Europe and I would think your boyfriend looks/is white. He looks Spanish, which to me is "white." We don't really think about races here in Europe, we go nationalities first, it's always so weird when Americans talk about white, black, hispanic, mixed etc..:D

[@chiara6180]

Yeah they ONLY talk about races and most of the times don’t even get it right! Like, most of them think that EVERY person from Africa is black, and we know it isn’t like that at all!

[@ellacardona8243]

He does not look white hun....he has olive skin and dark brown hair and eyes

[@MM-ll8zc]

[@rebecacasado4008]

yeah thats horrible. I don't know why they do that

[@WhatEver-mv6qi]

He basically is white. Hispanic is a culture, not a race.

[@rachelarruda1475]

It is so encouraging to hear you discuss the importance of God in a relationship, setting boundaries and building and supporting each other! Really sets a nice standard for girls (and guys) that dating can be fun and modern, but that biblical values still have their place :) thank you Both!

[@kunya16]

It's so refreshing to see a professing Christian couple that isn't living together. People think my husband and I were so stupid for not living together first. I love Daniel's thoughts on Cuba! He's so spot on. This was a super fun video.

[@AnimalLover2400]

@Shispirina research says the opposite. Couples that live together before marriage are more likely to get divorced.

[@lilsunflower9655]

@Rose McGrath that is really gross. Idk why you would say something like that. Whether people decide to move in first or not is not your business. Personally I wouldn’t marry someone I never lived with but that’s my prerogative. That doesn’t make me any less desirable to a partner. It’s just rude to say something like that.

[@Gii7077]

Can everyone stop arguing about daniel's ethnicity? He's cuban, he's a person of color, he does not consider himself, nor is he considered by the majority of the us, as white. Most cubans are spanish/native, spanish/african or spanish/afro/native mix. He's clearly mestizo and PROUD of it. It's super rude to insist he's not or that you know someone else's ethnicity or experience living it if you are not them. Latinos come with a buuuuunch of diff colors and features and they're all beautiful. And him and india make a beautiful couple!! Lots of love to you both!! (I don't think daniel is white passing but as someone who is, it irks me to NO END when people debate my ethnicity. Like, no, i am what i say i am! Dang it 😆)

[@TarynDryfhout]

I resonate so much with the working from home struggle. I've been freelance writing from home for years and it can be so hard to stay motivated. The best thing I've found is to get into a routine that mimics a normal job. Set your alarm, shower, get dressed and sit at your desk ready for the day. Then make yourself wait for regular lunch breaks etc before you take any time away from the desk. It's just about training your mind to function like it's work, because it is!

[@GenaMarie]

Totally feel you on the working from home struggle! For me I work on KZbin on the weekends. It helps me to get up at a good time and actually get ready, and go into my home office. I try to set time blocks, like if I work on KZbin for 2-3 hours, then I can take a break and go do house chores. And helps to set a cutoff time so I don’t work all night!

[@user-me1db8wc9l]

Thankyou for sharing on not living together before marriage! I've just gotten engaged to my partner and we're getting married in December and we've never lived together and choose not to before we're married and so many people, especially in my workplace, are saying "you wont truly know the person until you live together why would you marry them before you know them" and its really hard so this was really encouraging!

[@lisahuband583]

Madison Thomas good for you. It is more important to know each other spiritually than physically. It is a proven fact that people who live together often do not stay married. My best friend didn’t understand why my husband and I didn’t live together or be intimate before we got married. It is the best wedding present to give your husband or wife. You, completely undefiled and pure, and to have them the same is great.

[@madisonthomas2496]

Thankyou so much and could not agree more! My best friend chose to live with her partner before marriage but she is super respectful of my decision not to and has really helped me with all these negative opinions! My partner and I discussed everything from beliefs/values to money to kids etc all on our first date and continue to discuss those things now so we believe we're ready! End of the day its my life and my partners life not there's!

[@odette9551]

That thing of not knowing each other is silly. My bf and I don't live together and we've been dating for 6 years. I know all his habits and quirks. We've spent early mornings and late nights together, so we know each other well. If you spent enough time with your partner, you'll know each other inside and out. Plus, it's fun to discover new things about each other

[@madisonthomas2496]

@@odette9551 couldn't agree more! My fiance and I spent so much time together - and we were friends for a year before we dated as well! We've only been dating 10 months now - 8.5 months when we got engaged - but we know each other well, especially spiritually, and marrying him early just gives me more time to know him even more deeply! Can't wait for it!

Madison Thomas thank you for sharing this ☺️ don’t listen to what others say, just do what you and your partner feel is best for you ❤️

[@NikitaUnique]

When working from home, and creating your own schedule, it’s important to create boundaries for yourself, both regarding time and even location. Choose when you work best, and try to work only within that time frame. Determine if you only want to work in one part of the house, so that when you’re not working, you create a physical boundary between work and home life. There may be some exceptions, and the flexibility of your schedule is certainly a benefit, but the exceptions should remain so and not become the rule. Make sure that whoever is in your life understands and respects the boundaries and that the boundaries are mutually beneficial. If they can help keep you accountable to the boundaries you set, that’s great! Best wishes to you both! ❤️

Each year it just gets better and better.

[@shootoutforthestars4763]

Being Cuban when I first moved to the US it was weird being we’re used to giving everyone a kiss on the cheek because it’s considered being polite and respectful, then here sometimes people don’t say hello and only shake your hand they thought it was weird to give someone a kiss on the cheek.

[@Kay-ek8kv]

Girl. 🙋🏼 I hear you on the working from home! My advice is to lease an office! Find some place other than your home to actually get in your car and drive to! Even if it's 10 minutes away! The act of getting up, getting dressed, and GOING to work is so integral in keeping a consistent schedule. I feel you, when the kitchen needs cleaned I feel like I have to do it but if you're "at work" you're at work and there is no time for those distractions. I'm currently struggling with this, too. My husband and I are videographer/photographers and we are getting an office this spring because managing a business from the chaos of your home is not as productive as people would think! 😅

[@Susanarylander]

I don’t get what you mean interracial. I’m cuban and my husband is from Oklahoma but we are both white! Not interracial. On another note, you guys are awesome in how you support each other! Very cool couple

Well technically speaking Cubans can be white. Since Cuban is a nationality not a race. So you're not 100% wrong lol.

He is white...

[@tanyag5646]

IndiaBatson what do you mean “no way”? He’s probably mostly white anyway, as the comment before me said, Cuban is just his nationality, but being Latino is not a race they’re made up of mostly whites (Spanish/Portuguese), than Native American and sometimes black And he looks very very European, he probably has a small percentage of Native American apart from that, but that’s it

[@Scrappicat]

Tanya G: I think she means, "Really?" as in she is surprised that people think he looks white. I don't think she means no way as in there is NO WAY he could be white.

[@ddbrujeria]

It's so great that you two are both Christians. It's really hard being in a relationship with extreme cultural and religious differences. Even friendships. All my friends are Christians and look at my religious beliefs like they're looking the devil in the eye lmao. So I end up practicing alone and I have no one to talk to about it sometimes. I'm hoping that I can one day be in a relationship with someone of the same beliefs :)

[@lovelylindsey]

I work from home too and i TOTALLY relate. It’s hard to self-discipline time management and not get distracted. Sometimes it helps me to get out of my living environment to do computer work, emails, brainstorming, editing, etc. Try to find some quiet/good vibe cafes, coffee shops, libraries(!), or you can rent office space in your area! That’s helpful. It helps not feel so stir-crazy. For a fake clock-in app, use Toggl. It can keep track of your “work time” on your phone. You can create categories, projects, and stop+start time sheets. Love your channel, keep creating and sharing your light.

[@alexandradurail4454]

Julia R.V. It’s honestly a stupid reason. His family is no different than all the gusanos in Miami that say they won’t be back. His family like most white and light skinned families lived well under the dictatorship of Batista. It’s not a surprise that all people like him in Miami don’t want to go back and face the people that took their wealth and redistributed it to the people.

Multicultural is the right word ☺️. If he were to take a DNA test his results would most likely come up predominately European.

But u can’t base that off of their looks, many Cubans are black. And you don’t know if his grandparents are darker. Just bc someone looks something doesn’t mean their predominantly anything.

IndiaBatson You have to watch telenovelas and maybe try to speak Spanish to someone who knows the language well. Spanish is not my first language but with my parents I try to speak both languages with them, I have certain family members ( my uncle Jori for example speaks English with a heavy accent and it’s hard for me to understand him) and none of my grandparents spoke English. I also watched a lot of Spanish Tv ( news, novelas, and Sábado Gigante which was a talk show/game show). Now that I moved to Tennessee to do my masters, I have to keep up with my Spanish.

[@irairod5160]

India, I know this video is old, but if you're still struggling with time management, making yourself a work schedule might help. I am easily distracted, so when I work from home, I get nothing finished unless I commit myself to working, uninterrupted, at one thing at a time. I get up at the same time every day, no later than 7 am, as if I had a regular 9-to-5 job. Then, I do one (but only one) of my quicker house chores first thing in the morning (washing clothes, mopping the floors, unloading the dishwasher, sorting the mail, tending to my plants). That way I feel I've done some housekeeping, and I'm less tempted to walk around the house looking for unfinished tasks. Next, I work at my "real job" for 3 hours (no cleaning, no stopping to put a mask on, no shopping or banking online, no idling on YT or Social Media) then I take an hour-long break to eat something, check my phone, and plan dinner. After lunch, I dedicate 45 minutes to schedule appointments, prepare returns to go back to stores or the post office, that type of thing...and if I have time, another quick housekeeping task, like roasting coffee beans for the week or clearing my makeup vanity. Then, I go back to work for another 3 hours. I stop working a little before 5 pm, cook dinner, and the rest of the day is for all the other things I want and need to do: meal planning, hair and skin care, listening to a podcast, folding clothes, managing the social calendar, reading, watching movies, working out...One day a week, I go grocery shopping in the morning, so I work an extra hour after dinner. This is the only way I can be productive. If I don't stick to my schedule, my brain and body play games against me, and I start jumping from "work work" to giving myself a manicure, to washing the windows, to searching for tickets for a show or a vacation, back to the real work, no, I have to make a call, well, I feel like doing a little bit of yoga now, maybe I should take the car for an oil change today, oh, let me reply to these work emails--what's that? Who wants to see me? Great! Can I move these things to accommodate that? I'll have to reschedule my whole Wednesday, but that's OK. Hmmm, this coffee table really needs refinishing...do I still have a can of this nice stain in the basement? Let me go check. Yes, I think that's the stain up there. I see it, but I can't reach it. Where is the ladder? Oh, yeah, it's in the attic. I'll go get it really quick. Ring! Hello? Long time no see! Sure, I can translate that for you. No, you don't need to pay me. Oh, you need it by tomorrow? OK, I'll start that after I load the dishwasher. Oh, but first, I need to finish the report I started this morning, it's due by midnight. Well, no time to make dinner! I'll call for takeout. Darn it, now I can't sleep because I'm wired and I ate too late. Aaaaaahhhhh! It's 4 am and I'm still awake! (That's exactly how my day would go if I let my natural tendencies unchecked! My schedule is my lifesaver! Maybe you need one too!)

I love that you want to learn Spanish, I think it’s so great that you’re willing to learn. I myself am a hands on learner and need to DO things in order to learn them. So I thought I’d give you a tip on what you could do to learn the language! I’m currently learning Italian and I’ve been using this great app called Pimsleur. It’s a “podcast” and the lessons are about 25-28 minutes long. Long story short I listen to a lesson a day on my way to work and I have learned so much. I highly recommend you look into it...it has been a gem. It’s not free, but it won’t break the bank either. Side Note: Y’all make like the CUTEST couple!

India do not worry about Daniel he is winner 🏆 with his personality 😉 He always going to provide you security emotional and everything you need... Keep supporting him and both of you are going to be successful. If you are a believer you always going to achieve your goals...God bless!

My husband and I are both white, blonde haired, blue eyed and our families are the polar opposite. So... i don't think it matters what you look like 😂

Coming here from the tips with your mom and I’m glad I did. You’re beautiful and y’all make such a good attractive couple 😍

[@maritzah.4039]

I’m Cuban and I totally agree on the LOUD family gatherings!😂 But omg, love this video and I appreciate how real you guys are with your audience 🙌🏼

[@Estiexo]

you guys are so cute! my dad went to boarding school in Cuba and to this day he only ever wants to eat rice and beans LOL

[@SeaFlower38]

aw you 2 are such a cute couple with a great dynamic. That's awesome to see :)

India: I’m a 45 year old mom and high school teacher. I love your channel. Your audience doesn’t have to be the same age/stage as you to relate and enjoy your videos. I’m sure you will be popular in YT as long as you are putting out fresh content.

I’m a native Miamian. 68 years. Was hard getting use to but since I have 2 Latino daughter-in-laws, I embrace it. You can live unhappy or jump in with both feet.

[@coleashlynn]

Going back to living together before marriage real quick. The "phases" thing totally makes sense but also how do you know if you can stand living together when you're married if you don't try it out before hand. I feel like you can be in a great relationship with someone and then you move in together and you realize there are things that bug you, you do differently, etc. and you're able to find out whether the little things are too much or not.

It’s mostly about the religion thing, if you live together you’re gonna fall into premarital sin together so to eliminate that you don’t initiate it.

[@daniellemelendez3544]

Lol Daniel reminds me of my brother, light skin hispanic and he's sweet. He also makes the same facials expressions as my brother. Also, I'm sorry to break it to you Daniel but you do look white. You could pass for Italian.

My partner and I moved in together mid 2015, got engaged mid last year and are getting married in December. We are so so excited for marriage so I think everyone is different 😊 We’re not religious at all which makes that a little stranger to others I guess since I’m 23 and he’s turning 26. But I think it’s nice that you 2 have that in your lives and can share it together. You make a great couple and have so much to look forward to! Xx

[@indiabatson26]

Carissa Buchan awww thank you so much angel ☺️ I appreciate your support. AND CONGRATS ON YOUR WINTER WEDDING!!! That sounds beautiful and so exciting XOXO

[@morgan_meadows]

Hey girl! First of all, I love you and Daniel together. You really seem to communicate on the same wavelength, listen to one another and have a deep respect for each other. It's beautiful to witness. It really seems like you make a great team. Secondly! I work from home! Well... kinda. Like you, I'm an actor, and I do it full time! I do a lot of off broadway theatre/musical theatre but I also work as a voiceover artist and submit a lot of recordings from home, plus I submit for theatre projects from home before I have to actually go into the city to record or audition/perform. The BEST thing I can do, is *lean into my routine*, mama! That means, getting up and putting real clothes on (it's WAY too easy for me to stay in pajamas all day), maybe even do my hair and makeup since I always feel like the best version of myself that way and if I have to leave the house at the drop of a hat, I'm already ready! I make my coffee and my healthy green drink (lol) and try to set a creative timeline for myself. Because it's just like you said, the lights don't go off at 8pm. Creatives have to set their own timeline otherwise we can end up all over the place! It's freeing but also, as humans we crave structure! How blessed are we that we get to have both! I admire you and love the work you do! Keep going, girl!

[@indiabatson26]

[@TheColorwheelGallery]

when you make the Lord Jesus Christ the center of your marriage it will be blessed beyond measure. You will grow and your love will grow. God is awesome and he loves us very much. do not be afraid for He will always be there for you. Continue to sing praises unto God and to serve and worship him until your last breath, no need to be scared of death or heaven if you are in a strong relationship with God and never deny him while you're on earth just to be accepted or tolerated by society. We are here to please God and no one else. Continue to run the race India and Daniel. God bless you

[@jtorres334]

Hahah you guys made me laugh so much. I also have a interracial relationship and every single thing you guys said also happens to us. Thanks for sharing about God and being opened about having a different life style even if everyone else does something different nowadays. I'm also shooting towards psychology and I believe is a great way to share about God, anything we do must come with us speaking about him...bless you guys 💜

[@krisrio590]

You can be white with blue eyes and still be Cuban. I would never consider them an interracial couple just because of their cultural differences. Most of my family has blue eyes and blonde hair and they are Cuban.

[@bal9944]

Exactly. They are both white. Americans are weird. They just think British people are white because of the blonde hair. Southern European people look a lot like this guy and they are white. I see a white couple here

[@tinadowns6930]

Italian doesn’t mean white and Cuban doesn’t mean brown and so on. Multicultural can be interracial and it can not be. If you know your families origins and the history of those places you’ll pin point race and ethnicity better. And dna tests

[@mrswolfhard949]

Lmao I have a crush on both of them lol

My boyfriend has a HUGE italian family that does the same kisses on the cheek greeting! I was so not used to it because my family is small and not very touchy at all so it was definitely a thing to get used to, and I'm still not even sure if I'm greeting them right lol but theyre all very sweet.

Being Hispanic is an ethnicity, not a race. Hispanics come in all different races.

I'm in an interracial relationship, my bf is mixed race and I'm white, but we have the same culture because he grew up in the same church and same area. We have the same traditions. But poeple who don't know us don't know that, and we get stared at a lot, especially by older white people

You're beautiful, he's beautiful, and y'all are beautiful together lol. I love seeing a couple of faith making it work. Being a person of faith who thinks about and worries about when I will get into a relationship and how it will work out because of my faith, it's nice seeing people that have similar views being happy and committed to their beliefs.

[@ashnatiwari]

[@Scout-nn4vb]

Latino is not a race - it's an ethnicity. Latinos can be white, black, asian, indigenous. Or a mix of them all. You might want to read up on that - and take Spanish classes. Lol. 😃 Cubans, like many Latin Americans, can be multiracial and/or multi ethnic. This dude looks pretty white. 😍

[@abbieamavi]

and the "singing forever in heaven thing" is me!!! but also, I'm actually scared to live forever. Not scared of death at all, I'm scared of eternal life 😂 and I REALLY liked what you said about the living together before marriage.

Yes I know the struggle! I work from home. I try to get up and get started at 9am, and I do have to clock in so that gives me more motivation than if I didn’t have to. But yes I think if you had an office or a separate space to work in that would help! Or even going out to a coffee shop or finding a communal work space.
