Well, the white guy who was interested in me or who appeared to in the beginning was obviously shamed for liking me. I am a darkskin Black woman with black features. Instead he was encouraged to pursue the lightskinned black girl because she is a bit more socially acceptable than me. A few coworkers saw him taking me home, I am pretty sure they had a talk with him. Cause after that, he has never spoken to me ever again. Everytime I see him he is chatting with that light black girl

Don't feed me bull about dark being beautiful and all that crap. In society, being a dark black woman is something to be shamed of and I will never be considered as beautiful as a ligthskinned woman. This is so emotionally scarring for me. I can barely look at myself in the mirror. I am not even good enough to be loved

I don't know about this buisness 'dark skin women is something to be ashamed of,' because I'm not. But yea, you're fooling yourself if you think men put dark skinned black women on the same level beauty wise as white women or even Hispanic women. Look around you. Not so much.

Oh, I know they don't. Both men and women don't. It could have been a female employee, heck, a black on that told him not to speak to me anymore. I think I'm average looking but I guess I'm just a lot uglier to others or something. This is so devestating. My complex is even worse now. I recently bought me some steroids so I can bleach my skin to get a bit lighter

So what. People were telling me to date interracially to increase my chances, well that isn't working. I can't even get a white man. Nobody wants to see me happy. They want to see darkskin black women like me grow old and alone.

Well what can you do about it? Skin bleaching and all that nonsense like that is a waste of time. May as well accept you are a dark skinned woman and keep it moving. *shrugs*

Being a darkskinned woman is not getting me anymore. My relationships don't develop to anything serious. And when obviously other people think certain men are 'too good' to date me. I might as well take some action and do something about my color in order to find happiness

First of all why are you pursuing someone like that in the first place, and secondly have you giving up on blackmen completely? Or are you ashamed to be with blackmen, considering you are determining your own beauty from the eyes of someone who apparently does not value/appreciate you. Which again goes back to his own weak character, because if he can be persuaded to alter his love interest by someone else, do you really want to be associated with such a lame?
