Perhaps he was just affirming his support for inter-racial relationships (in general) over homogenous ones? I hope it's not racist of me to say, but I support pretty much all inter-racial relationships over homogenous ones.<br /><br />Granted, the term "combination" is a little odd...I would have used "couple" when referring to people. But if he's French-Morrocan, English might be his second language; perhaps he didn't have the idiom to hand (I don't know, I didn't hear how he spoke).<br /><br />Finally, as to how he knew you were a couple...don't know about you, but most people can guess at a glance that my wife and I are a couple, just by the way we relate to each other (even through body language).<br /><br />Anyway...whole incident would have been better if he'd just said, "you two make a cute couple", amirite? :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
