I am suffering from a severe inferiority complex (kind of?).. help!!?
So I am a sophomore in a decent private university with environmental science major, my grades are pretty good I got 3.8 GPA now. The thing is I HATE MY RACE/ETHNIC/HERITAGE/whatever it is. I am Indonesian of Chinese descent and I think I got the most despicable incompetent race in the universe. First of all I identify myself with Indonesia not China, cuz I don’t speak chinese at all.. but I look like your everyday chinese food waiter. To get a college in USA for us third world country citizens, you’ll need a fairly wealthy parents and almost all of my indonesian friends here are like extremely hedonistic and absolutely mental. The girls shop like mad and the guys drive expensive cars and wear expensive stuff also, I felt really disconnected with them; not that my parents were poor but Christ we came from a third world country and we didn’t act like one. To make things worse, ALL of them (not most, ALL) study business or finance – a very typical son of wealthy businessman study business stuff while I study science; o yea and should I say some of them fail miserably at school despise paying 50k per semester as international student tuition fee – I feel like so many people in my country have so much potential but no opportunity and they seem wasted it. Because everyone with decent money to get a decent school choose to study business and accounting and decide to rape the natural ecosystem in Indonesia, my country fail miserably at science. For country with 4th largest population on the planet, ZERO nobel laureate is terrible and as the people below the poverty line in my country get dumber and dumber and its natural resources only distributed among the wealthy few among my social circle (thats including me and my parents) muslim fundamentalist idea starts to creep in (as you know indonesia is the world’s most populous muslim country). O yea and their taste for music and movie are HORRIBLE.. I’m not into mainstream stuff and they freakin’ listened to Taylor Swift and Kanye West and watched Confession of a Shopaholic and Legend of Chun Li. Its not like I don’t have American friends like some of them sometimes come over and ask me for academic stuffs but since our background are so different I don’t feel as close to them as I would be to my fellow highschool friends. Am I worrying to much? Sometimes I do feel I am to arrogant but once you get a bias on someone you know nothing will ever be the same. And finally, ALL OF THAT country specific stuff contributes to the usual inferiority complex an asian guy suffer in the western world like we all dreamed of getting laid by Olga Kurylenko while the fact is the best an asian guy can do is nail Gong Li. Asian girls age TERRIBLY, at 19 they look 14 but at 35 they’ll look 45.
Get back up your tree and be quiet.

That’s why I go to school online, because you can’t see the faces of others and therefore you cannot be biased, it’s a completely different community.
Just pretend and really try to think that everyone else is open and they accept you. Perhaps its not them being biased so much as it is your reaction to thinking they are biased? Try changing your behavior, and if it works than that will help, but if it doesn’t then sadly your right, and you can’t help it. But the most important thing to remember is you cannot change the behaviors of a larg group of people but you can change your to get their reactions to you to change!

Awww man, take a chill pill. You sound like a cool dude. I think you’re going to do better things for Indonesia and the world than any of those other people. Everybody will think you’re much cooler than them. And, btw, Asian girls are very beautiful and age better than most ethnic groups.

uh, you don’t have an inferiority complex, you have the opposite: a superiority complex. you think you’re better than everyone else and that no one and nothing is up to par with your standards of how things should be.
if you continue on this path, you’re going to become a grumpy negative person and no one is going to want to be around you…which will cause you to be even more grumpy. it’s a terribly vicious cycle but i guess i can only offer two pieces of advice for you that have helped me tremendously:
1.) remember that everyone is doing the best they can
2.) you can spend the rest of your life complaining and whining and then you’ll die. or you can try to enjoy the limited time you have here on earth and change what you can about the things you don’t like.
good luck!
