I can see why someone would think that.
Literally, all of my life, peers have told me that I "acted white". I've been told that I was too preppy to be with and that they didn't want to be with someone like that. It's happened across the board for me, from high school up to now.
It just one day occurred to me that other than skin color, I didn't have much in common with other black guys. Growing up, my best friends were white, I was always a suburban kid so that's what I knew. That's what I can, ultimately, relate to. That doesn't mean that I would never date a black guy, because I have tried but I always end up rejected.
For me, it has never been a self-hate thing. I simply align myself with someone who I have a lot of common interests with, share the same values and who I can relate to... and up to now, it has always been white guys.
