I think the only people South Asians would never date are blacks. Since blacks seem to be on their least favorite people's list.

As a black person, I don't understand the hate we get from some South Asianswe've never done nothing to them, like invade their land and enslave all their people like white folks did. Yet some of them will kiss a white person's behind quicker than anything else, because they got that drilled into them after a couple of hundreds years of racist colonialism that white people were supposedly better then everybody else (which is pure bull****.) Hell, everybody is the whole damn world has always looked down on black folks since slavery timesso that's nothing new. And what kills me is those same damn white people these Indians idolize still consider themselves superior to Indians and damn near everybody else on the planet anyway! It's all a bunch of racist bull**** anyway! -

It's definitely racist, but Indians and other Asians don't care if whites see themselves above them or history because they seem Westerners as above them too. That's why they "kiss a white person's behind quicker than anyone else." Many Asians are obsessed with status and being successful. If black people were #1, they'd kiss their ass too. -

I'm a white guy married to a South Asian lady. We have been married for over 30 years. It was a problem initially for her family (never for mine) but time heals everything. Now they accept me (and our children) as part of the family. Interestingly since we got married several others in the family (siblings and now the next generation) have also married/entered relationships, in nearly all cases with people of different ethnicity. I've also noticed that inter-racial relationships have become so commonplace that people generally don't comment anymore. Well I guess that there is a chance that eventually everyone will realise that there is only one race - the human race.

My GF is SE Asian. Her parents are happy but i suspect that's only because they consider me rich. That being said they would probably prefer a well-off local man to me. I still hear them refer to me as "the westerner" in their native tongue sometimes, which bothers me as i have told them on many occasion that i do have a name and it's not westerner. Frankly the lack of respect does bother me as they would never show such discourtesies to a local man of similar station. I suppose they believe me to be ignorant of local customs so that i won't notice. I suspect they are annoyed i haven't elevated their own station within the tribe enough. Oh well i have my own life to elevate first.

I am south asian- american in a relationship with a white Irish guy (straight from Ireland). I care a lot about him and our relationship is nothing short of amazing but am definitely hesitant about the practical/family aspect to it and he knows it and has known it since day one. His family loves me though. =/ Not sure how to tell my parents, no one in my family has married out although I know for sure one of my cousins secretly dated a white guy for a while before they ended things. My family is pretty conservative, and most of the time, I kinda love it! I love the extended family dynamic and cultural aspect. It's a lot of fun, we're very close, and we're there for each other. Maybe my extended family wouldn't react horribly to the relationship (honestly not sure!), but I do know things would be different if I married out though. I think my cousins feel the same, no one wants to be the one to do it and change what we've had our whole lives. Sigh, if there was only a way to have both.
