Hi! I'm MDG.
I am an American woman in love with an Indian man. I moved to Bangalore, India July 25th, 2010, and am happy to be sharing my experiences with you!
Please don't hesitate to comment or contact me directly. I love both! 
Another Indian Love Story
When I was thinking of starting a website, I wanted to make sure it could be interesting not just for myself but for others as well. I researched some pointers online and one thing that was always recommended was to find your ‘niche’. So I put down some of my ‘niches’ to paper. Hmmm. I like to sing, to hike, I like dogs, health food, traveling, and I have an Indian boyfriend. Then I asked myself, which one of these is the most unique? And bam. I had my niche. I told My Indian Man, “hunny, you’re my niche. Thanks.”
Since starting this website I have realized how great it is to be involved in a community of Indian Love’s. For me, since My Indian Man is away, it gives me a lot of comfort to blog and receive comments from others reaching out. And when he comes home, it will still be a vehicle to share information knowing there are others out there listening and lending their kind words.
Recently, I received a very nice comment from an English woman I will refer to as “R”. We then continued the conversation through email. My post, Are You His “Holdiay in Goa”? hit home for her, because she actually DID meet her Indian Man while vacationing in Goa! But, as she said, her holiday in Goa actually worked out. They fell in love, married, and she moved to India to be with him. They have now been married 9 weeks. Newly weds! She shared her story with me, and it was so lovely I asked permission to share it with you all. Below is her story:
Hi,
I am “R” and I am the lady who lives In Bangalore who has recently married my very own Indian love!
To explain, I was not questioning your partners love for you, which I feel sure is sincere. I was just trying to fully understand your situation. Believe me, I have had to deflect and answer every negative comment about my relationship, but, I am proof that inter-cultural love can work.
You asked me how I met my husband, so here goes…
3 years ago I was on holiday in Goa, he is a Dr and was attending a medical conference and we happened to be staying in the same hotel. I thought he was beautiful, but we exchanged nothing more than a pleasant hello when we passed each other, this went on for about 8 days. On his last evening, he stopped me and asked to exchange email addresses, which I agreed to do.
We corresponded regularly for about 5 months, by email and telephone,I was travelling to Mumbai for business, he asked if we could meet and he travelled to Mumbai from his home in Bangalore. We spent a wonderful week together and on my return we continued to correspond. I returned three months later to India and we met again and so it went on for about 12 months. Over this time our feelings were becoming deeper and the distance was harder to bear.
He is a Hindu and from the Bunt community, his parents expected him not only to marry a suitable Indian/Hindu girl, but, also a girl from the same caste. We had discussed this at length and I had always accepted that eventually he would have to leave me, but, he always promised that he would be honest with me and keep me involved with any plans being made by his parents.
But, the love we had was too strong. His parents were aware of me, and didn’t mind his involvement so long as when the time came he did the right thing and married as arranged by them.
Time moved on and we have been ‘together’ for about 2 years. He was visiting his family home in Mangalore when one morning I was woken by the telephone, it was my boyfriend, he had told his parents about me, told them he intended to spend the rest of his life with me and that it was a non-negotiable. His Mother was devastated and tried everything to convince him that I was not the right person for him.
There was a series of family weddings at this point and his Father eventually said, invite “R”, let’s get to know her before we make any decision.
I nervously flew to Delhi to attend the wedding of his cousin as his guest and I met the whole family in one go (believe me there are a LOT of them).
To cut a very long story short, his parents, although never thrilled with the idea, eventually came around. I can not say that they are ‘happy’ with the union, but, we are friendly and I hope that over the years they will come to accept me.
We had everything set against us working out culture, religion, distance and yet we slowly and surely built strong foundations and a lasting love.
Very nice real life story.
Sarah, I’m so happy to hear this! It makes me smile so big!
I wish you all the best with YOUR Indian man. Please keep writing me and keeping me updated!
This gives me so much hope! I’m very lucky that my boyfriend told his mum about me two weeks into our relationship and she has been very kind to me. We met at university (we both graduate in 5 months!) and have been together for three years. But when it comes to crunch time, ie deciding to marry, it’s going to be very hard… I’m so worried his family will say no and he’s worried too. Marriage is still a long way off… but I still worry
Hopeful, wow! Together for 3 years, 5 months till graduation (and hopefully jobs follow!) You’ll both be set! Deciding to marry seems very easy for some. For me, it is a huge decision that I seem to have trouble making. Especially if it’s not right, meaning if it’s rushed or done in court, which sometimes we have talked about doing just to keep him in the states. But it’s not my ideal situation. 3 years is long enough to know if the two of you are right for each other and with careers on the horizon, you’ll have the finances to make it work. Even if his family says no, (which they just may) if he loves you enough I don’t think he will let that sway his decision. Seems like he’s planning on living in the states, so perhaps his family’s opinion in India won’t affect his too much. And the fact that he told his mom about you 2 weeks in is a good inclination he’s going on his own terms! Best wishes! Keep in touch!
hi ,
i love to read all this love storys!!
i am a girl from europe and i am also in love with an indian man witch i met when i was on holiday in india,he was my guide ,but our situation is very complicated bcoz i am married with somebody since 2 years and we are together since 8 years since i was 16 years old!!!!
i never thought that i will get in love with somebody else and i never thought that i will cheat my husband and now i am so confused and dont know what to do .
between me and the indian man is a very special relation and i feel that we 2 have so much in common, we have such a good chemistry and sometimes i feel that i just want to run to him to india and beginn a new life with him but this would be such a crazyness.i also feel that i want to have children with him much more then i want with my husband.
i am affraid to take any decision bcoz sometimes i am thinking that maybe between me and the indian man its just passion and slowely this passion will die.
if i move to him my life would be completed different and if he would move to me to europe his life would be changed and i am affraid of all this changes even if i love him and thats why i think he will remain just my lover or better say THE BEST LOVER !
maybe i dont love him enough and thats why i can not separate from husband !! i dont know !! life and love is so complicated sometimes !!!
from all this personal story i learned some things :
first : never say never
second : never judge the people or their culture and civilization
third : love is blind
in short , that is my story !!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi. I am up to get married with an Indian man. I love him so much.
Hi MDG,
I have an update for you a few months in to married life with my Indian love. We are soon to be a family! We are expecting our first baby in October. We are nervous, excited and thrilled all at the same time.
My husband is a Dr so I am having excellent medical care, and up to now everything is progressing smoothly. The closeness of family here is really highlighted at the moment, as I am being fussed over and pampered like a princess.
My husband is most excited to see what our little Indian/English baby will look like, although he is nervous that it will have his dark skin and my red hair!
~ R
Ahhh!
That’s amazing R! Congratulations! October is MIM’s birthday month too. 
Your situation with a doctor as a hubby and loving family around sounds perfect. So good to hear everyone has come around and has accepted you with open arms.
I am so excited to see what your baby will look like too! I’ve always wondered. Please do feel free to send me a photo when the time comes! Thanks for the update! Best wishes to you and yours. <3

wow these stories make me smile of just the thought of being with my indian boyfriend till the end
i’m young,only 20, but i have been close friends with him for almost 3 years now,and just recently, actually a month today,we became a couple. I never would have imagined myself dating him,much less an indian guy.I love him so much, but the thought of all the differences between our families worries me a little. I am spanish, my parents were born in Nicaragua,and i was born in new jersey. My family is wild and crazy, and well, i never met his family, and i get very nervous when i think about the future between us.
but this is a great website, actually makes me feel a little more secure with everything. Love all these stories!
Welcome Jasmin! Thanks for sharing your story. A month is still very fresh, so in time I think your worries will get less and less. It must be nice being friends for so long before dating! I think that’s the absolute best way to date – starting out as friends first. Keep in touch!
i just thought that married life is the happiest point of my life.’~~
