Hi Zainteddy,

I’m an Indian, But whatever you said is 100% true. Indian kids does not really know what being independent (emotionally, financially, physically) is even though they try to be so they would never dare to disrespect their parents even if they are wrong. at 20’s almost everyone in the family will try to set you up with a guy/girl they know. Marriage is not based upon true feelings most of the time. Once i dated a guy who wants to get married and have babies before 30 (else the society will question him it seems) that was the sole reason he was in love. Double life is common here because they never stand up for what they really want, so they keep what they get and in pseudo mode they try getting what they really like. But if you ask them they wont agree they will act like they have all transformed and adaptive to western culture etc., like down to earth. But beware..
