Don’t even start me on Indians, but probably no different than even Nigerians in this country. Where I work there’s a Nigerian who sometimes tells me about people at his church - so for fun, I ask him what that person does. He’s either an executive, brain surgeon, or something similar. Needless to say one of his daughters will be a doctor, the other a nurse practitioner. Then I walk by the desk of an American, who proudly displays a picture of her son decked out in a football uniform and not even knowing how to smile. The kid will likely go nowhere, either in football, or in academics, but will need new knees by age 50, but won’t be able to afford the flight to Costa Rica to get the surgery (obviously, the days of insurance-paid knee replacements are numbered in the states).
Great job on the wife. In her culture, she would be considered a complete failure if she leaves you without a really good cause (as in being beaten or equivalent). You not doing the dishes or picking up your socks doesn’t cut it. And should you wonder off with another woman, they will look at her to try figure out what she did wrong to lose you - but then that doesn’t happen, because she knows what it takes to keep her guy happy.
TOTALLY DIFFERENT than when an American woman gets with her feminist friends or even her family (in most cases).
Her family is VERY big into church, split between Prot/Catholics.
but probably the nicest kindest people I have ever met. They go WAY out of their way to help you out.
The education there is really amazing. Those kids are studying things in HS that I NEVER learned... and they are expected be in the 95%+ range...
Yes I am a very lucky man. I couldnt have found a nicer more caring person then my wife if i tried. And the fact that she turns heads is a plus :)
