Probably date people who accepts
you for who you are and accepts your background vs trying to attract a specific ethnic group . That is weird and creepy.
Indian American women are American. Don’t lean too much on the indian part. If someone cares about your birth place, it won’t change regardless of how much you imitate John Wayne

You cannot remove your middle eastern heritage. That’s the point. If someone doesn’t want to date people who were not born in the US, then you should not pursue them
Very absurd to think that way. No one likes to date people with inferiority complex. Be yourself as oppose to pretend to be someone else. Also it is incredibly creepy to say that you are attracted to specific ethnicity/ nationality combo
Dude you are 29 and you are still trying to gain acceptance from a cohort you know don’t want to date you or entertain you. One can’t help but feel sad and sorry for you (and not in a nice way). The world is rich, diverse and vast. This ain’t a Bollywood movie where the more you go after someone, the more they are attracted to you. Life is too short. Instead of changing who you are, find someone who accepts you for who you are. Get over the obsession as you do come across as weird (men of Indian descent already have so many negative stereotypes, don’t add anymore)
You are not attracted to Indian women since they don’t take care of their appearance? See how you just stereotyped a whole category of women? And you complain about women stereotyping you? Sheesh grow up and try to be a good accepting person who is open to all types of women so that you find a genuine connection with a woman who can reciprocate.
I didn’t stereotype. In my experience , Indian women put zero effort into their appearance. My experiences are valid, and I’m entitled to draw conclusions from my experiences. They also don’t use deodorant - which is table stakes in my opinion. I am actually open to all types of women including Indian women with the caveat that they take care of themselves. I’m actually attracted to several Indian women, but only the ones who put effort into their appearance.

Well as indian I think you being middle eastern would not go down well with lot of parents of Indian Americans. Our Indian society still have unspoken rules and stereotypes around who is acceptable. Why don't you try to date Mid eastern Americans?
I have Indian ethnicity. I just grew up in the Middle East. I’m Hindu.
