Scared of being fetishized?

Khaila

Hey guys so I am an African-American women. I recently started seeing this guy he’s middle eastern and white. I am like a golden brown complexion, he’s kinda pale. This is my first time dating a non black man. So, I noticed he compliments me a lot, which is fine. But he tells me loves my skin and wishes he was tanner. I guess I’m a little afraid of being fetishized but I might be overthinking. What do y’all think am I overthinking? Any other black women that can share their experience with interracial dating?
