Non-BW discussing interracial dating with BW

I remember I had this discussion with a childhood friend that I’ve been knowing since in elementary school. We hardly ever talk about dating, but it was like a conversation that came up. One day, she asked me have I ever thought about dating outside my race. My friend is a Hispanic girl who dated a white guy in the past when we were in high school and now she married with a Hispanic man. I don’t know if she asked me that because she felt like black guys aren’t the biggest options out there for black girls like me. Have you ever discussed dating outside your race with other non-black women?
