Any 30+ female around? Would love to chat.
An Afr Am man asked why male Caribs and Africans have access to certain types of Afr Am women. The answer is interesting https://www.quora.com/Why-do-Immigrant-Black-men-e-g-Nigerians-seem-to-find-dates-with-higher-class-Black-American-women-than-I-do-a-Black-American-male/answer/Paris-Walker-5?ch=12&share=5a829587&srid=6yai

Has anyone gone CAIA route ?
Wife’s Asian - she knows a few of my desi things - can’t say she’s super into it. But luckily enjoys our food, cooks it too sometimes. Yes she doesn’t get my references that any desi F who grew up in India around when I did does - and a tiny part of me enjoys that connection however fleeting!
Yes we run into cultural issues every now and then, but rarer as we’ve gotten older.
Known her 20 years - 12 of them married to her! She’s given me 2 wonderful ABC1/2Desi + 1/2Asian kids that I can’t imagine my life without and I love her just a little bit more every year :)
Hang in there bud, common cultural references help for sure but you can also build years of shared memories & growth too that’s an incredible emotional bond and sense of comfort/security!
I need to find an Asian Waifu
M here for context. Not race related at all but just the shared culture like a reference to Sholay or Indian affairs as well as the freedom to say something and it not be misconstrued is so refreshing. I know about American cultures a lot more than the Fs I meet know about mine. I also have to make sure I tone down my Indian references while talking/texting with them.
I think I kinda get why a lot of non desi (even ABCD) Fs would prefer men from their culture.
Not discrediting whatever you have said OP but here is an opposing view from someone who has been in couple of happy relationships with non-Indians. While it is true that your SO may never get some jokes or cultural references, it is fun to learn about their culture and teaching them about yours. You also cancel out the negatives of both cultures and focus on the good aspects. Last but not least, you will never run out of stories to share. I can spend hours learning about her life and she does the same as we come from very different backgrounds and societies.
OP, I can understand where you are coming from. It’s all right. I also understand you vent. I agree in my case, I have been extremely lucky. My ex was an immigrant and I am currently dating an American. Both of them talked about their experiences and cultures and so did I. But, that’s kind of the point of being in an inter-racial/cultural relationship. If someone you dated wasn’t interested in your culture then honesty there is no point especially if you just moved to a different country.
Hang in there and you will get someone.
Agreed, cultural similarity is massive.
As a Pakistani Muslim I’d much rather date/settle down with an Indian Hindu girl or of any other religion than a Arab, Iranian, Turkish Muslim girl etc.
Ofcourse I may not be in the majority because I am not very religious but I do tend to highly value similarities in culture, food, language, music etc.
I got a chance to work with Pakistani collegue’s in couple of my projects, and could not believe that how many similarities we have and how similar we are. Enjoyed working with them as much as I would have enjoyed working with Indian colleagues.
Yeah They don’t like Modi, so we avoided those conversations otherwise I don’t think we have animosity between each other/countries (unlike I used to think in the past that we would)
