Ppl need to understand this is a valid question, maybe not a good one but still, anyone saying something like “stop with the self pity” should take a sec to think where this person could be coming from or what experiences they may have had in the past to cause them to ask this. There are numerous reasons why this question shouldn’t be ignored like they have no basis to ask it, for example the existence of colourism within the black race and against more darker skinned ppl. Also the likelihood of racial prejudices, whether an individual is racist or not, they still happen. However the question is kinda pointless, not because race doesn’t matter when it comes to dating, because it can, but because the answer to your question is circumstantial. Meaning you can never really know the answer to your question by getting individual answers, unless a specific university has a history of darker skinned ppl finding it hard to get a partner, which is very unlikely and would need quite a bit of research done to be taken seriously. Furthermore there are a lot more factors involved in whether you are attractive or likely to be someone’s type other than your skin colour that would do a better job of determining whether your chances of getting a gf/bf is higher or lower. I’d say don’t let any beliefs about race hinder you from putting yourself out there because that mindset will work against you. Even if someone flat out says your dark skin is a reason for them not being attracted to you, walk away, keep your head up and look elsewhere for a better person. Ps. You don’t have to be black this works with any ethnic minority.
