It's because of stoopid stereotypes.

Americans tend to be very judgmental and think everyone from Africa is a scammer.

Yep. It's the same in the UK as well - in relation to internet sites.

I can image that it's hard not to take this stereotype personally but when it's happened to you a few times, you tend to be mistrustful.

Some people like me just say that they're not interested in pursuing a relationship with anyone outside of the country of residence.

true,am finding it very hard not to take this personally.

however i must say that scammers prey on whatever you present them with,like your level of vulnerability or irresponsibility....a scammer can be from your country of residence too.

Not necessarily. I think the expression is cast a 100 nets and you're bound to catch something.

I agree, scammers are everywhere.

The next time that you see such a statement in someone's profile, pay attention to the location of that person. It could be a simple case of not wanting to get involved with another person who lives on the other side of an ocean.

Plenty of people here simply do not want to get into a long-distance relationship with someone living in another nation.

If friendship is what you want, then try introducing yourself to Mingle2 members who do not place limits on location, age or race/ethnicity. My age, location and ethnicity haven't prevented me from befriending people all over the world.

Truth be told, I guess there are quite a lot of people who don't like interacial relationships...You don't have to be a genius to figure it out Kaytoure

Besides,if it is about interracial relationships,they should instead come out and say dont add me if you black...last time i checked,Africa wasnt the only place you could find black people.
