I watch a lot of TikTok and noticed they go after them. I know it isn’t my business, but they are my ideal preference, and also I’m not white. Yes, I get that I’m generalizing, but it gets to a certain point where it has some truth to it. Don’t ban me, please; I just want at least advice or anything, tbh. Also, sorry for making a weird question; I don’t mean to offend anyone or bring controversy into race when it comes to dating.

    Going to echo:

    Get off social media.

    I’ll add: get introspective, become confident in your skin. Worry less about what you think is happening outside your head, and begin to control the things within.

    When you love yourself it won’t hurt if others don’t love you, but I promise, others will.

      Social media is so bad for your self-esteem. I hate Instagram for many reasons but one of them is that it used to make me feel really awful about myself because it’s packed to the brim with beautiful people appearing to be very confident and successful.

      When you see a million posts of dudes with supermodel girlfriends standing on balconies overlooking stunning beaches on the coasts of Italy or France it starts to give you a real sense of inadequacy. But it’s not always the full story.
