They all show within in me and my looks, but my skin is more red than brown, and this girl keeps saying it looks like a sunburn and keeps talking about how i look weird. Do you think it's cause i'm multi-racial? What should do?

I think you should feel lucky to have this variety in background(especially native american, as it's not very common...).
Humans tend to classify what they do not know or are not used to as "weird". You are different to her, no doubt about this. I have to admit that your combination of ethnic background is quite unique, I've never heard it before, but that's what makes it interesting!
I think that multi-racial people (and, generally, people from mixed marriages) are more open-minded because of the diverse environment they have grown up in.
There is nothing you need to do - just be yourself and be proud of yourself!

Are you happy with who you are? Are you proud of who you are? Girl, you should be! Just tell her off! She is more than likely one off those snotty girls who wish she had a complexion. Feel beautiful with who you are. No need to put on a show or try to hide how gorgeous you really are!!! Much love the multi-racials out there!

I think you should ignore her. It sounds like you have a very exotic beauty. I am not trying to be mean, but I am guessing she is very plain-looking and it is possible that she is jealous of you. I knew a girl once who was half black and half Asian, and she was (is) absolutely gorgeous. Not to mention that personality plays an even bigger part in one's attractiveness.
Don't even dignify her remarks with a response. Don't get upset, just let it roll off your back. Don't let her get to you. She's just being petty, and it seems apparent that she is not comfortable within herself, otherwise she would not be trying to make you feel self-conscious and weird just to make herself feel better. I know it sounds cliche, but it's true.

That sounds like a great mix of cultural heritage. You should be proud of yourself. I bet you are really pretty. Everyone has one of those girls in their life at one time or another. She has a low self esteem and she makes herself feel better by picking on others. It might not seam like it, but she does. Don't give her any attention, and act like you could care less what she says. She will eventually find someone else to pick on. Don't give her the satisfaction of knowing she can get to you.

You should stand up for yourself and say that you can't change who you are and are comfortable with the way you look. If this girl is that worried about you skin tone, maybe she is a little bit racist, in which case you should do your best to ignore her opinion, even when it hurts.

there is nothing wrong being multiracial. shes just one of those types of ppl that like to make fun of other people that are not plain, simple n boring like she is.
if you have the courage go up and talk to her. put her on the spot and ask her why shes thinkn u are weird.
being urself is all u can be
