The rush is that i been with this girl for 5 years. Also i am ready to settle down and have my own family i will have a good job and and a place to stay. I think we have spent enough time with each other 5 years is a long time dont you think. actually we are going on our 6th year soon. I have thought about everything that is why i talked to my parents. If i was not ready i wouldnt even talk about it.

the reason for me leaving is not because of him not being my real dad or cause of what they have hidden from me. I am doing this because of the fact that i tired of being controlled and being told what to do all the time i am 23 now and i think i should have some freedom. I love my parents dont get me wrong but some stuff in the indian culture i think is to far fetched and living in the 21st century they should be a little more understanding and not keep there mind narrow. I know they are trying to protect me but after they pass way they will not be there to protect me anymore. This is all i got to say if i am still wrong tell me.

thanks for your opinion. The thing my parents are hiding from me is the truth about my birth name. I had changed my last name in court from my pervious last name to the new last name just because my parents told me that the state of nj made a mistake. Just recently i found out from research that my mom was divorced and that my dad that i been calling dad is not really my dad. I had taken your advise and talked to my parents and they told me that they will not accept my girl friend at all so me and her have decide that we would should move with her parents in utah in july and i asked her dads permission. Her parents are mormon which there culture and regilion is very close to hindus. All my parents see is the color of her skin and not the morals and the culture that she has in her background. Do you think me leaving my parents will make it worse or will it make them realize and make them accept what i have done.

Thanks Jimbo3453 for your suggestion. I have tried to sit down and talk to them they told me that they will not accept me marrying a non indian. My mom and dad always worry about what other people think and dont think what is best for there son and what my intrest is. Jimbo3453 are you indian? Also there is other stuff that my parents have been hiding from me that affects me in a big way. Jimbo3453 have you talked to your parents about you marrying your girlfreind?

I am a hindu male. This decision is because of love. Also i dont see anything wrong with me marrying a non indian. But iknow if i tell my parents they would not understand anything because they are very tradtional in the hindu culture. I dont see skin color i see only love.

i want to marry a non indian but dont know how to tell my parents. If you can please give suggestions.

thanks right now i am in a serious realtionship with a american who is mormon i dont know if you know the religion it is alot like hindu religion. We wish to marry each other but only my parents are in the way of this. I dont know what to do if to break the realtionship or just go ahead and do it.

i am just wondering what is wrong with marrying a non-indian? And why do indian parents have a hard time with this?
