My exP is Greek and I'm Australian/Swedish, although he's not very dark at all (he has green eyes and light skin). My DD has the same complexion as his father and sister (olive skin, brown eyes and hair), so she's darker than me. She has this gorgeous curly hair too and mine is dead straight. Most of the comments i've heard have been more about that than anything else! People would just say she looks like her dad, rather than say she doesn't look like me lol.
