I was always extroverted, since I was small. Everywhere I go to dance, I always see the guys looking at me, but every time I join the group or want something more sensual with any of them, they always say 'you're not my type.

I deluded myself and thought that the relationship with him could evolve, but he dumped me at an event to go out with a white guy. I was really angry and when I went to confront him, he said to my face that 'he would never date a black guy.
