Well, I don't let stereotypes be a barrier to any type of a relationship with people...be it a friendship or a love interest. I think people can be too preoccupied with these things. He was good looking, funny, and sweet. I didn't see the racial/cultural stuff attached.

My bf is between a FOB and 'westernized'. He was raised in India til 15, so he's kind of different. He has a lot of disdain for westernized Indians who have forgotten their culture, but also disdain for Indians born in India who refuse to accept any part of western culture (especially if they're living in it). Lucky me, I get the best of both worlds.
