Black women who married or had relationships with white men - did it work?

I’m a white guy. I’ve rarely seen a black woman and a white man together, but I’ve always been attracted to black and white women in equal numbers.

I’ve always wondered whether black women find white guys attractive period, but more than that I wonder whether those black woman/white man couples live normal lives and make it work. I was raised with a number of black friends and I knew their families well, but I wonder as a grown man whether I would ever be welcome in a black woman’s home or whether I’d always make her family uncomfortable. I hasten to add that I also wonder whether a black woman would ever feel entirely comfortable if she was in the home of her (theoretical) white boyfriend/husband’s family.

To black women who’ve had this experience, how did you and your man negotiate being in an interracial relationship and did it work for you?
