I'm a 22 year old from Central American origin and I'm currently in a long distance relationship with an Indian guy. He is very open minded, however I don't sense the same from his family. We've been together a little over a year now and are truly in love. Yet, we still haven't met each others parents. He is willing to meet mine, but when I mention that I want to see his, its a different story. He says in their culture, the girl only meets the parents when they are "sure to marry." I respect that, however, I'm not indian, so even if I do meet them, will they still want to share the same beliefs with me? I'm starting to feel a little intimidated by this issue. I told my parents about him and they feel no different. Is this really a big problem for Indian families, when their son is seeing someone out of thier race? I would like an opinion from both Indian genders as well as anyone who's been in my situation please. :)
