C'mon Inner Peace… I Don't Have All Damn Day

Your Boyfriend is From India?

pTh4pWR0jE49Gx4N.jpg

Falling in love with a man from India has been a roller coaster combination of many interesting conversations, arguments, passions and complexities.

I wouldn’t trade him for the world though, because he has brightened my disillusioned and tired mind.

My blog stats continuously show questions about masala couples (a mix between east and west) that I feel compelled to let you know… you are not alone.

There are many articles both for and against the Indian man, as if they are this alien subspecies to be poked and prodded by science. “Who are these men so inexperienced in the western dating world, with bright minds and a confused look on their face?”

There are articles about western women not being accepted into Indian families… “will he even marry me at all?”

I had no idea the Indian culture falsely sees western women as easy and that marrying the love of my life would be so complicated.

Getting his Punjabi Sikh family to accept me used to seem insurmountable, and trying to convince some of my closed minded American friends that he is not after a green card has been entertaining… to say the least.

Getting to know the family. Getting to know the family.

The reasons I fell in love with this man were very basic and simple; he loves me completely, and he is the most moral man I have ever known.

For a woman who has seen the worst side of men, my Indian boyfriend was a breath of fresh air.  He restored my faith in humanity by always putting our relationship first.

Indian men have been raised to think about marriage… and their priority is usually family above all else. With him, I feel as if I have stepped back in time to 1930, where thoughts regarding matrimony were less complicated and more chivalrous.

I have suddenly been submerged into this colorful and intriguing world I had never before imagined existed; I love the complex simplicity of it all.

…But, there are issues of course.

Now I have to be aware that Mercury being in retrograde could possibly put a small “rift” in my relationship for a few weeks. Things that I would never have thought of, seem to pop up out of the blue… such as making a journey to a certain temple on the Ganges to clear his Karma from the woes of his grandfathers.

(huh?)

…And did you know that Turmeric cures just about EVERYTHING?  Now I do… I know this well.

It’s an experience both of us find interesting, sometimes frustrating… yet always filled with humor, devotion and respect.

Reading the online message boards, candidly shows me the shock and horror of racism on both sides. I am shocked as to what I see from westerners… “we don’t date you because you are not white,” or simply “Indian men smell.”

The comments from Indians are just as crazy; although in contrast they are extremely long and well written.

The theories they tend have about western women are just as entertaining, “they don’t like us because we are I.T. nerds,” or wrongly they think “girls in America have loose morals.” The best though, “they are afraid of the rapes and honor killings they hear about in the media.”

I don’t think it is so much the honor killing as much as the internet being filled with western girls who have actually fallen in love with an Indian man only to have their hearts ripped out.

Some Indian men do tend to see western girls as “easy” and take advantage of that love… only to leave them for an arranged marriage back home in India.

The countless stories are absolutely unimaginable to a girl from the west; knowing that falling in love with an Indian guy may leave her heartbroken.

In India, everyone seems to accept your “one true love” may marry someone else one day; where the western woman could never understand that you did not have the balls to stand up to your family for her.

There is a major cultural difference in how one sees their status prior to marriage.

A western girl hears “I love you” from her boyfriend and automatically thinks long-term. But, in many Indian households, love only happens after marriage; there is no guarantee until it’s official. 

Indian men sometimes like to throw the words “I love you” around easily… and quite fast.

Western girls NEED to understand this. 

I consider myself one of the lucky ones, my Indian “boyfriend” plans on marrying me, contrary to what his society thinks. He is not awkward or nerdy; I think he is beautiful to look at, smells delicious and exudes a confidence that I adore. He takes me by the hand and lets me know that he will fight for me until the day he dies.

…AND much to the dismay of Indian mothers everywhere, I am not an “easy girl” who sleeps around, drinking at clubs till the wee hours of the morning.

Although there was a time when yes, dancing until dawn was fun… it does not mean that western girls are these “crazy sluts” Indian culture seems to think we are.

My Indian “boyfriend” doesn’t care about my past, he only sees our future together; knowing I am none of those things his society believes.

For the first time in my life, I can’t wait to get married. I’m going to marry the man who kisses my forehead and is not afraid to become my family.

I’m going to marry the most kind and gentle person I have ever met; the one who consistently resolves our issues like a man ready to take on the role of a husband; not a child who plays games.

My Indian fiancé came into my world like a prince who stole my heart and resuscitated my soul; because he is a good man who followed his heart and wasn’t afraid to stand up for me!

I wish the same for you.

Does he stand up to his family for you?  If not, PLEASE question the relationship. Masala relationships can be confusing, but it’s not hopeless as long as your boyfriend is willing to tell his family about you… and fight for you. 

It’s typical to be kept secret from the family until it’s time for marriage, but is he willing to eventually deal with the pressure for you?

It’s not an easy road, but the family usually gives-in eventually. Ohhhhh, but they will threaten with all kinds of guilt ridden drama first.

I belong to large “support group” of women like us, and I’ve seen it all.

If he tells you from the beginning that his family will never accept you… believe him, that’s a HUGE red flag that he is not strong enough to stand up to them.

Has he shown signs his family is looking for a bride for him? Things like, going back to India and all of a sudden he is distant and busy? Couldn’t be found for days? His patterns and habits have changed completely from the sweet man you knew?

Feel free to contact me @BuddhafulBritt, countless women are put through hell because he won’t stand up to his family, culture and traditions.  I welcome all emails from those who are still confused.

    Your joy and contentment bring a smile to my face and tears to my eyes. To read this only reassures me that you will have a very happy life together…not a perfect life but one that can survive the trials that marriage brings and one that will have many more ups than downs. I can’t wait to meet this wonderful man and see your love in action! Kisses!

      I wish I could help you. All I know is that my husband family accepted me and my son. My husband told them he was going to marry me, and they agreed. It’s really your boyfriend who needs to stand up to them. Too many times I see Indian men who are scared of their family to do what their heart says. If he doesn’t stand up for you, please try to move on. He is not the one for you.

He said marry party and card and ring every things is done. Can’t cancel it. But I really really sad to see he is gone from my life. We are same class we had so so sweet love story and was lined so much in beginning. Now after 7 years he left me and can know he can’t marry me that’s too stupid.

Last 7 years of coz hard to left me and still have feeling and missing feeling by sad. Now he can stop contact with me. And every day chat so many hours with that Indian girl on video.

    I absolutely love this article!! because it is so true….I’ve recently met an Indian man who has meant the world to me, the best person I have ever met and the best I have ever been treated by any man. Much like you Lisa…he has reinvented my soul, blows my mind intellectually is a true man and so gentle and loving. He is a true man with true morals and puts family above all else, in terms of problems he does tell me he wants to settle in India and so future wise not sure where the relationship will go, but it definitely hasn’t taken the next step yet but I know that I would marry this man in a heartbeat and if he decided I was the woman for him FOREVER he would have no hesitation in telling his family and fighting for it…fingers crossed I could just be his Western fling, but how he has changed my life he will never know 🙂

    Your story had me smiling. You’re so blessed to be able to be with him. Recently, my indian boyfriend of 2.5 years, broke up with me. He told me he had told his parents he met someone and is dating. His parents disagreed and told him he have to go back to India or they won’t care about him anymore. Forcing him to end the relationship with me. Although he did not say it was his parents who had him to end it, he told me it’s because of our differences and the problems we have with our parents. I love this man to death and I’ve told him before. It is also because we work together in a company and he doesn’t like the idea of me working in the same company. He’s in a higher position in the company and I’m a nobody. We work around a lot of asian people who do a lot of gossiping. Which he doesn’t like. We kept our relationship a secret from our coworkers. Only a few knew we dated. I’m so hurt that our relationship has to end. I felt like we were going to get marry. I don’t know what happened when he went back to india, but he came back very different. I met his sister and she knew we were dating. She likes me a lot and is always happy to see me. I don’t know how to get my ex indian boyfriend back. I’m trying my best to do what he had told me to do. He was very happy when I told him I’m going back to school and soon will be quitting the company. I wished I didn’t stressed him out because his parents and sister are stressing him out. I told him before, if he needed my help, I can help his sister find a job here. But it seems the deadline is almost near. I’m not sure what the real reason why he broke up with me. It was unclear for me. I wished I can tell you. I know he’s not in an arrange marriage. What hurts me most is when I came upon a site with his name in it. He had made an account searching for an Indian bride. It made me very upset because it was before we broke up. I just don’t understand why he would tell me he loves me then come back completely different and then asked to break up. He was a prince to me and he made me feel like I was his princess. Hes so loving and caring. By the way, I’m mixed with 3 Asian cultures and born in America. Is it because I’m southeast asian mixed? Or is it because I’m not vegetarian? If it’s because I’m not vegetarian, I can become one. I love this guy so much I am willing to learn his way of living. I’m still sadden by the end of our relationship. We still text each other once in awhile and bump into each other at work, but act like we never had anything together. I’m so confused and lost as of right now. I’ve been crying for a month now and my emotion and mental state is unstable to the point where it’s hurting me physically too. I want him to be with me again. I feel if I am able to leave the company and get to talk to him face to face, I would maybe get him to come back to me. But it feels unlikely of it happening.

      Usually, I find these problems aren’t as bad as trying to deal with family. Will his family accept you? If they do, and he tells them about you… then all other issues fall into place easier. Religion is sometimes a problem but most girls I know try to share and mix cultures. You’ll be just fine as long as he tells his parents about you. If they don’t accept you right away, that’s normal too. But the fact that he told them, and stands up for you is the biggest hurdle. In my experience.

      How do his parents feel? This choice is up to you my dear. If you love him and think he is a good man, then, does your Parents opinion of what color they think he is matter? It’s a tough choice to give up love because of your parents. And a choice that only you can make. If you think he is a good man: would he marry you and support you emotionally through this, then maybe go for it.

    I envy you. Such a beautiful love story you have. I am a divorced woman with three kids though. I’m also older than my Indian boyfriend, but we love each other so much. I have no idea where this relationship is going or how it will end, but at the end of the day we all want one thing and that is commitment. I need advise. I also know that I might never be accepted by his family.

    Hi I’m just start dating a man from india. We have been dating only 3 weeks and he says he loves me. Sex was right away. I am worried that he may have someone. I have never heard him say something but I worry. I have feelings for him but scared that he passing time. He says no that he wants me. How can I feel secure that he does not have something arranged,

      It’s still way too early to know these things. You will have to trust your heart for now, but look out for red flags. The one main thing to look out for is if he is willing to tell his parents about you when it’s time for marriage. If he does not, and wants you to remain a secret, that’s a huge red flag. I think it’s common for I often guys to say “I love you” much faster than we are used to, but the truth comes out after time and you start talking about marriage.

    You too are gorgeous and so happy. Gives me hope. While my bf and I had a slow and bumpy start. I have now, known him for a little over 3 years. We are much older than you two are. My bf has stood up to parents saying, never to an arranged marriage. They don’t bring it up any longer. But they also don’t know about me. Your article gives me hope. Although, he rarely sees his parents, so don’t think that is an issue, but his workaholic side is an issue. He does talk about out future, but then, gets scared. He said, this is the closest he has ever been to love and marriage. Lucky me.
