“You’re very cute, you know, for a colored girl” Am I wrong for not taking this as a compliment?

I was at Target when a guy(who was white) walked up to me started hitting on me. He was very friendly and all, but once he said, I immediately lost all interest. I didn’t understand it. We got along so well until he made that comment.

Also, “for a colored girl,” wtf is this the late 1950s?? After saying that, he asked me if I would like to go out Saturday. However once he said that, I just gave the silent treatment and paid for my items.

I’m okay with someone giving me compliments on appearance, but whenever they include my race. It’s like I feel less human or something. It truly makes me think, “damn, do you not like black women or think less of us??”

It’s already hard dating outside my race cause racism is still very strong in my country. You never know who will be okay or believe in those stereotypes.

Idk did I mess up a potentially great date by being too sensitive, or was I right to ignore him?
