I'm sure some people just started lauging when they saw the title, but the question is probably somewhat different than you might think. I am a white guy, speak Spanish, been coming to Bavaro/Punta Cana for two years. Mexico before that. I have met many people from Spain and South America here. What I am wondering is what they are going to think when they start seeing me with this really nice Dominicana I met a few months ago. Europeans here especially seem to want to maintain their status here and not socialize with Dominicans very much. Not that I know much about this place yet, which is why I am asking the question. I think I know what Dominicanos will think, but I don't care much about that. I have found a pretty good balance with most that I meet. I would like to say we understand each other, but of course, I realize I am still new here and have a lot to learn. Thanks for any insight or comments on this topic. Are there any places I should stay away from with her? My point is that I don't want to do anything stupid, plain ignorant, or offend anyone in particular. Gracia.

Any difficulites with dating Dominicanas in Bavaro
With all your apparent worries, you are not going to have much fun here, certainly not when you are with the girl.
If she is the sort of girl you would be pleased to introduce to your family, and if you and she conduct yourselves in public the way you would if at home, then I would not worry much about offending anyone, etc. I believe that those you seem to be worried about will come to realize that this is a socially acceptable relationship.
If she speaks the language of the Europeans you will be socializing with, even if with some difficulty, it will be even better.
But for heavens sake, if you like the girl and she is someone you will be proud to introduce, do not go around apologizing and acting like it is not a proper relationship.
PS: I see this is your first post. If you had more experience with DR1 you would not have posted your question in the first place. I don't think it will take long for you to see why I say that.
Perhaps Contango can give him a few pointers, JAJA!

No one cares about you or what you do and who you do it with (with respect), love is cheap and relationships even cheaper here, just get on with it and don't make a novela out of a preview. If you're this naive here you'll have plenty of reruns to get through (again, with respect).
Canadian. I spent some time in the U.S. and saw some pretty brutal treatment of Dominincans. I could have been more to the point and just asked if there is underlying prejudice here that I should be aware of. I'm learning and have no problem being up front about that. The key to my question is "Europeans here especially seem to want to maintain their status here and not socialize with Dominicans very much." I sense a bit of colonialism to use another brutal word. But who knows. That's why I ask here.
Hell no. I love these people. Otherwise I wouldn't be here. (Naive again of course.)
If things don't work out and you don't feel like supporting her baby who is always in the "infirma" the one you have never met, flag down a motoconcho send her on her way, there is always another Chica...
I'm a sociologist. And, I don't want to encounter something as a surprise that I should have known. But, in the end as the wise man above says, I shouldn't give a damn. And, I won't. Just looking for a little wisdom.

Look within. Use the force. And all that good stuff.
