I am dating an Indian guy- need help for a succesful relationship?
I have been dating an Indian guy (born in India) and now working in UK for 2 months and I am Caucasian. He is comming form a very traditional family, and is torn between his wish to be in harmony with is parents and his longing to be free and be with me. I need your advice about how to make our relationship last and work out the eventual problems? He is of course afraid to tell his parents about us, and anyway it is a too early starge of a relationship anyway. And also he is very honest to me, and he is not one of the sweet talking Inidan guys who promiss golden hills and then return to India and marry a girl their parents chose for him. He actually already told his parents that he does not want an arranged marriage and that he wnats to choose his partner when he wants. So I am now open to hear advices about HOW will and can our relationship WORK OUT inspite of the difficulties and potential problems wit his parents. I know it is difficult, but hay, give me a chance to try!

- Arrange a dinner to talk about it with his parents. If they don't agree, runaway and get married. My dad did that, but now his family doesn't want to know anything about him. ;)
- You want a truthful answer, then i will give you one of my own opinion. Most of its on him, If he wants to be with you then he needs to be, its that simple. Tradition, honor, glory, or whatever, I can understand its hard to break away from such things. But if he loves you, and you love him than thats the end of it. Theres nothing else to give advice about. If hes scared of his family now, then he'll be scared of them in the future, even if yall work it out in the present.
