How do Asian men feel about south Asian women?

I've actually thought about this in the past. I do find Indian and Pakistani girls attractive - but they seem so different culturally! I do try but I find it hard to fit in with an Indian crowd, for example. And especially Pakistani girls - most are Muslim and I can't really relate to that beyond their good looks. Indian girls can be great but my real issue with any inter-cultural/racial relationship is, is she open-minded and self-aware enough to see things from my perspective (as I would do for her)? I mean, you can't really have sustainable inter-cultural relationships without being empathetic and open-minded on a humanistic level that is deeper than cultural affiliations.

not sure I understand. maybe being shy is the issue not the attraction based on geography.
