They've just always been taught to stay away from each other. Well mainly the mermaids have been taught to stay away from the 'savage' mermen and mermen have been told that if given the chance the 'ugly swimming witches' would turn them against each other.
Is it wrong to hope that maybe later on you might change your mind? I really like your character and what he would have brought to the rp. I also greatly enjoy and respect your writing ability.
