Let’s try to maintain the focus of this thread on the ability of a human to have a loving relationship with a non-human. Not only aliens but how about this….could you fall in love with a super advanced artificially intelligent machine and maintain that relationship?
What is love and what do you need to have it?

The problem is, the machine doesn't have any feelings. The machine is just reacting. It doesn't have emotions

You guys have some serious mental issues.
I think you guys need to get out a little more.
I think this forum is really losing any credibility.

You can't breed with aliens and have children because the DNA is too different.

I think the greys have been here since before recorded history. The Greeks called them the titans. Titan means grey, the color grey. The Titans are supposed to have given birth to the gods, according to Greek mythology. That is a myth, but there is truth in myth. It means that the greys have been "giving birth" to engineered super-humans for millenia. I don't know what their agenda is. Maybe they are trying to make us more like them little by little, because that is their way of colonizing biologically active planets. Maybe they are trying to civilize or domesticate us, in order to use us better as slave labor. Whatever it is, I think its probably self-serving for them, so I distrust it. I would like to stop them from continuing their breeding programs in secret.

Yes, maybe the breeding programs started with being self-serving, but could possibly backfire on those greys? Are there more hybrids now than greys? If so, what could that mean/change? What if the hybrids remember the human parents who weren't freaked out by them, but accepted and loved them? What difference would that make in future plans?

Interesting idea, but I think it would at least during the first couple of decades after contact be frowned upon. Akin to a white women sleeping with a black man in the 50's.

My question though is what would you sexuality be then classed as if you preferred the other other white meat? intersexual? homointersexual? biintersexual?

Would we end up with alieaphobics? A modern day KKK?

Knowing they had advanced intelligence, would we let child aliens study in our schools alongside the "inferior" human children?

Come to think of it, it would make for one hell of a student exchange program

And how about tourism? How would that be affected?

Would aliens have to declare their flight paths? Carry visas? Go through customs? Dispose of all fruit before entering the stratosphere?
