Are they no Indian girls lined up for you? Isn’t that the done thing?
I have a very good friend born and raised in India.
He has been here in USA working as a professional since 1981 and just retired this year.
I remember back in 1985 or so, his sister back in India began sending him pictures of gals that she had selected to become his bride. She was 'assigned' by the family to be the match maker for him.
He kept telling her he was not interested in marrying an Indian gal, but she persisted in sending more pics.
Finally though she gave up and, in a huff said, send all the pics back.
I remembered asking him at the time what was the problem, as many of the gals were super attractive looking . . . at least in the face.
He just said: I don't like the culture and attitudes of Indian women.
I never pursued the discussion and really didn't understand much of his reasoning.
Sad thing was, he couldn't attain attractive USA women and kept dating older, frumpy looking ones. And he even married one such and she doesn't treat him very well. My first wife and current UW wife are quite upset about her treatment, as they both really like him.
He is actually fairly handsome in the face, although quite skinny of stature.
Current UW wife says the rule in Ukraine is that the man should marry a woman who is better looking than he is.

I have another good friend from India who went the 'arranged' marriage route. He has now been married over 50 years.
He told his interesting philosophy on arranged marriages.
In USA man and woman are on best behavior before marriage to attract the mate. So after marriage they are tired of being 'good' all the time and stop being on their best behavior.
Indians don't even know each other before marriage, so have to be on best behavior during marriage to keep the mate.
And same for a good friend who is from Taiwan; married over 60 years.
