I hate that there’s nothing special about me. I’m just an ordinary mediocre white girl. I’m not smart, pleasant, or talented. I don’t have a big crowd around me. I feel like a loser and waste of space.

you’re not taking up space babe. everyone offers something to the world, even if we don’t know exactly what that thing may be. i feel like that sometimes too, that’s why i spend one day a week volunteering. you KNOW you’re helping the world that way. just a suggestion:) and im sorry you’re feeling this way.

girl you don’t need to be special. and being a person of color or other minority doesn’t make someone “special”

Ngl the idea of being “ordinary” is kinda bs. Even if you don’t think you’re smart or talented, what are you interested in? Your favorite show, snack? Do you have a pet? It’s the little things that make you who you are, not your popularity or accomplishments.

If you think being special means doing cool things then go do cool things girl. Like hating yourself is fr loser behavior, you should be your first priority so if you don’t like what you’re doing then do something else no one is gonna hold your hand, you have to just actually like yourself to be happy.

girl this is a bit much…you aren’t entirely useless unless you are making a choice to be. why do you think so deserve praise and attention if you don’t do anything to warrant it

Eh I’ve just seen people posting about boring average talentless white girls don’t deserve attention or recognition. Kind of hammered my low self worth that I don’t provide anything useful to the world. Even alone I just feel like I’m taking up space

i think they just mean that the average white girl is PRAISED whereas an extraordinary woman of color gets no acknowledgement. it’s not about deserving no attention or recognition, just that you don’t deserve it just for being white which is historically what has happened
