Ariel,
You are pretty dead on.
I have a long time brother (honor for me to have him call me bother) that is a very well known Indian actor/composer/producer/TV personality living in India, as a matter of fact the old BM & I had our first date visiting his show. Antakshari is an interesting cross between Johnny Carson, Star Search and American Idol.
We know a lot of Indian women and have spent considerable time talking to them about relationships. Without a question they would never have a long term relationship with a white boy or any other person from other than their religion and in some cases their own circle of friends (Mom & Dad's circle).
GOM
It's awesome when you can relate to a friend through specifics.
Yeah, gonnat hit this up after I finish Thandie's name analysis.
