    rather than spending time being ashamed of something you can’t control, why not try to focus on something you can.

    Just be proud of who you are, the right people wont care about how you look anyway, it always in the end comes down to who you are that really matters

    Never be ashamed of what you are. You are the only you out there so be proud of that!

    Don’t be ashamed of yourself ever! I was also born in a country as a minority, people did this and that too, but all i had to do was do what i believe is right, and all of the religions believe the same, everyone is equal.

    Kind of weird to write that. But I understand where you’re coming from. My lifr ould definetly be easier if I was white, blonde hair, blue eyes. My skin is white but I’m mexican so I have dark hair, beard, dark eyes, baby face etc. Even at 5 foot 7, being white would help me be liked by people, especially women. I see women say it all the time, they want a tall white guy. They always want white guys, even my own race lol It pisses me off. It makes me sad honestly, I feel like a loser and an idiot for trying to talk to girls. But whatever, I don’t hate white people at all. They’re just living their lives. It’s the women that are the problem 😂 Just kidding lol Just focus on tge positives of your life even if it’s a few things. Something good will happen. That’s life, there are ups and downs.

    damn what type of ragebait is this you’re racist af 🥀 or just super damn narrow minded. Have you even been to the rest of the world or do you think that black people treat white people “unfairly” for NO reason or have you not paid attention in history class? Or you’re just arrogant and don’t want to self educate yourself with the media you have access to? Your post and acting like white people are the superior race is exactly why you think “black people are treating white people nasty” because you’re entitled as fuck. To say your black features make you look bad is also weird and what would your darker parent even say to that?? You need to go to therapy for self love and to treat your narrow mindset…. this isn’t pre-school not all of us are in it together and black and white isn’t the only race war going on ffs.

    That’s literally so fucked upp. That’s literally such a dope mix. Human muts are honestlyyyy better than pure breads like me. Keep your head up they are just jealous. It’s like cock envy but for ethnicity.

    Being ashamed of something you can’t change is a waste of energy, man.

    Im sorry to read you are feeling that way right now. But; theres probably stuff you like about your personality that dont have anything to do with your ethnicity. (I hope so anyway)
    If you have to make a list of things you like about yourself, go ahead. Focus on those things.

    Stop wishing for things and accept that the world is unfair a lot of the times.

    Your ethnicity is not ugly.
    You are not those other people, you are yourself and anyone who groups you all together rather than seeing people as individuals is not someone that will be good for you anyway.
    But it’s also not healthy to hate your own race.
    As a white person, I get angry at how some white people are about balck people and other races and I don’t want to be seen as like them but they don’t define or decide who I am.
    And not all white people are like that, just like you are proof that not all people of your ethnicity are hateful towards white people.
    Check out the songs “Bleed The Same” by Mandisa, “Colored People” by dcTalk and “Man In The Mirror” by Michael Jackson.
    I love those songs.

    Keep that to yourself; why do you have to offend people with this kind of post?

    I’m sorry you feel this way. Just know, racism exists with every color. My white grandpa was one of the most racist men I’ve ever met in my life. The people that know this is wrong, are the people that are going to make this world better.

    Someone else said it best: being ashamed of something you can’t change is a waste of time. I agree with that, but I would also say, it’s a waste of energy. Do what you need to do to bring any happiness into your life. Don’t displace your energy on things that just are. We’re not here for a long time, we’re here for a good time, and we’re here to learn and grow. I wish you nothing but the best.

    I also agree that therapy would help. Good luck.
