I don't even see the point in my existance. I am darkskin, Black with African features. To make it worst, I'm a woman. Most men and women in society think lighter skin is better. Darkskinned Black women like me have a harder time finding mates and getting married. I'm discriminated against more. The outlook for me to get married is not good at all. What is the point of me living? I don't see any at all. I feel my existence is meaningless. I feel that I would be better off dead.

So you can pay taxes to fund my social security.

Who are all the dark skinned black dudes marrying?

Are you ugly or fat?
Are you difficult to get along with?
Are you too picky?

Black women. Don't buy the lie that black men are mostly marrying white women. I have several dark skinned Black female clients from work who were recently married to black men.

Most black guys prefer lighter toned women.

The level of my attractiveness is irrelevant, I'll never be the ideal no matter what I do to myself. I'll never be lightskin

I think the level of your logic is irrelevant.

Lightskin Black women. In the afternoon, I always see many young black children walking home from school, and the vast majority of them are light in complexion. There are not very many black people being produced who look like me. I see a lot of black men with light black women all the time. I really serve no purpose at all. I feel like my existence is meaningless

Most white men like tanned women. I'm pasty as hell and do not tan. I've not had a problem finding mates.

Look up dysmorphic syndrome. People usually don't get so depressed over things like this.

I can give you a good argument - there is so much in the world and in the universe that you have yet to learn, see, and experience, so it would be the most foolish action imaginable to deprive yourself of those opportunities permanently (which is what suicide amounts to). Letting your happiness be dictated by the attitudes of other people is no way to live well, but since there are 7 billion people in the world I am sure that there is someone out there that is compatible with you. My advice: get out more, move to another city or even another country. Compared to the vastness of the universe and even our own planet, your experience to date is miniscule. What have you got to lose by trying? No matter how slim, as long as you're alive there's a chance; by killing yourself, the odds are reduced to zero, and a slim chance is better than none.

Go on vacation to England, specifically London. It might brighten your spirits.

Perhaps you should discard the antiquated notion that a woman's worth is determined by her marital status. So what if you don't get married? You can still lead a healthy, productive, fulfilling and enjoyable life without a husband.
