I am myself a caucasian studying at a Asian university (japanese). Of course people are a bit surprised if you speak their language fluently - they don't expect you to be able to. There are very few caucasian people fluent in Chinese/Japanese, so it is a logical assumption. I have no idea of why you believe this to be racism.

I can see why you get slightly irritated at the reaction of how good you are at the language, though, and I partly agree with you. But just find a few friends and hang out with them and they will probably treat you as an equal. The novelty of being a foreigner simply wears off. And you've only been in Chinese countries for less than two years. That's not a long time. You probably give off signals of not being Chinese other than your skin colour. I know I do.

Post on Chinese starcraft forums. No matter what happened here, he will be welcomed.
It is the same reason why Ping Fu is treated so differently between Chinese and Americans.

One of those General-advice-from-a-first-glance-post:

You really should talk about these things with a psychologist, not strangers on the Internet. The way you describe yourself, and from what I´ve gathered from your your interactions, that´ll do more harm than good.

You have some issues you need to work through, admitting you have a "problem", or something you simply dislike about yourself as a person is obviously the first step. I´m not going to speculate what might be the root of your issues; however, a professional might be able to put some of the somewhat irrational ideas that you have, about every elses view on you, into perspective.

And help you to rid yourself of a lot of this anxiety that seems to weigh quite heavily on you, likely affecting your judgement and having an impact on your relations.

Changing, bettering yourself, is the hardest thing of all. Also the most rewarding. Best of luck to you, sincerely!
