We are from different countries, yet we like one another too much. Can love find a way easily to our hearts where customs, habits and other distinctions melt away?

of course.......im trinidadian and my boyfriend is puerto rican. we have extremely different customs but we still have love. the things that we do differently dont affect our love because we dont let it. there will always be things that are important to you that may not be as important to your significant other, the key is to learn how to compromise

I've been in that situation a few times because I am very attracted to Indian men. Yes you can fall in love very eaisly, but you have to think of long term. Especially in religion. Men from the East especially are really choicey about their food, the woman's clothing, a woman being submisive, and their language. They usually want the woman to adapt their ways and that could mean the woman will lose her culture along the way. It is very difficult but it can be done because LOVE transcends all. It hurts a lot too because families dont approve and the lovers get torn between their familes & traditions.
An Indian guy broke my heart after I had been dating him for 2 years and went and married a woman from his country. He said we are not a like and he wanted someone like him. I still cry about that because I loved him so much. So be aware and think to the future because when it's all said and done the person with strong culturally ties will more than likely choose their culture.

Dear Sara 007
No way. Easy no way but can you make it work Yes. It well be work not easy. But you enjoy more what you have to work for. Go for it
Make sure you two match in what you enjoy in and out of the bed room and you well have a long marriage. To be able to communicate good and bad is a must. I am from my side of family tree that never marries in the same city. Sorry the last one only lasted 26 years. Good luck and do not let any one steal your dreams

I don't see why not. Human nature is basically the same the world over. The differences you have mentioned, or are likely to encounter in future, are too superficial to make any real difference if you really love each other.I admit that things are easier if your backgrounds are identical, but if you want to make your relationship a success, you must remember that you must replace the pronouns "I" and "You" with the pronoun "We". Try to think together, help each other, appreciate each other, and be grateful to God for bringing you together.

WIthout a doubt, yes! Just comprimise, if he's use to doing something one way and you are use to doing something another...you can try both because you can learn more about one another and you can find an inbetween place where you guys settle on something that has a little of both of you. It just means comprimise, but you'll have a relationship totally unique to you two.

I think that if you truly love one another then it will have to stand the test of time. This means that it will not be easy being so far away from one another, but nothing is impossible. For the moment just enjoy what you have and let life take care of itself.

Sure! Love knows no boundaries...
In today's world where we talk of diversity and encourage inclusion.. It may take extended levels of understanding & tolerance of each others cultures but if traditions and beliefs be respected and enjoyed it will certainly blossom into a harmonious and chersihable relationship.
Best of Luck to you both!

it doesn't matter what nationality you are yes your customs may differ a little but if you like this person then you shouldn't care if they are of a different nationality

Love can always find a way. It's everything else that gets in its way.
