Post subject:  Being Asian and Having Mild Acne Affect Confidence HELP!
Hey, guys I've been reading around quite a bit but I just didn't register. I decided to ask this question as there are certain issues that really affect my game and probably affected some of you too in the past and it would be great if I got some answers.

So, I'm East Asian and have mild acne, a few spots here and there. There are times when I really want to approach like say a Blonde girl or a cute latina but feel that they won't be attracted to me because I'm Asian or because I have acne. I don't think I'm an ugly guy. I've had 3 girlfriends before throughout 20 years and had girls tell me I'm cute when I'm AFC. I'm also tan skinned, 5'11 and 165 lbs with some muscles and a 6 pack.

Sometimes, I feel like a girl is checking me out but quickly dismiss that belief because of the fact that I'm Asian or that I have acne, especially when the girl is not Asian.

Now, I know that there are some really successful Asian PUAs. I've done a lot of reading: David Deangelo's Double Your Reading, The Game, Mystery Method, and A LOT of reading on these forums. I really think that I'm made for this stuff but that these limiting beliefs are preventing me from actually starting. Perhaps, these might sound like excuses to you guys for being a bitch but these factors really affect my self confidence.

Any help would be appreciated!

Sorry if this was a long read.

While you will get no help from me with regards to women, I found that

A: Washing with the beady kind facial soap, Followed by topical application of lots 2.5% benzoyl peroxide cream daily (You can get higher concentrations, but i find my skin drying out even with this).
B: Covering affected areas with a Sudocrem, a couple of times a day. Go to sleep with a thick layer of sudocrem on.
C: Never EVER pop spots or squeeze out blackheads. This ALWAYS makes my acne worse. The Beady kind of facial soap is more effective,(But less viscerally satisfying) anyway.

That cleared up my acne in a couple of weeks, though it resurges whenever i squeeze blackheads (Which has become a bad habit).

So instead you suggest walking around with a big pimple full of white pus? Yeah right...better pop it, then put some alcohol on it and cover it with make up.

To be honest dude, Ro-accutane is the way to go atleast from my experience. I dealt with mild acne around my nose and mouth for like 2 years, it didn't bother me that much or affect the way people saw me but I thought "ive had enough of this now" So I went to a dermatologist and he put me on a LOW dose of ro-accutane so that the side effects would not be as powerful as on a higher dosage.

The only side effect I got from it was dry skin for about 5 months, and in return I now do not have ANY acne apart from the occasional spot which goes away after about 2 hours..

Honestly mate, I would recommend Accutane, a low dosage at best.

I guess I am lucky I have never had more than one or 2 pimples at a time other then the regular blackhead pores on the nose which are unnoticable unless you are looking for them so I have no advice on that.
But as suggested maybe cover it with make up some concealer or something since you said a few here it doesn't sound like you have a face full of them so maybe try that. Some of the girls I know swear by that shit Jessica Simpson is peddling that is usually advertising on tv can't recall what it's called but maybe give that ago.
As for the being asian yeah that may make the game harder for you if the girl is not attracted to asians but easier if they are so that could swing both ways. Once again though something I don't have to deal with so sorry I couldn't help more just thought the make up idea might be a good idea can't hurt anyway.
