[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband is Indian and was more than ok with me being a SAHM. Perhaps find someone from a traditional background if you're into foreign men. [/quote]
Not always. My ex is Indian and he was not okay with me staying at home. Talk to him first. What did his mom or other women in his family do? This will give you clues as to what his expectations will be. In my ex's, case the women in his family were all very successful business women. His mother made her first million on her own (she came from a poor background).  [/quote]

If you are looking for an engineer, there's no shortage of Indian dudes, so that's a good place to start. They are more traditional, but the ones from super educated families are less tradition ( ie mom is a doctor). So, don't fall for assumptions based on his culture. Ask him about what his mom, sisters, aunts, grandmother do if it's early dating and you don't want to put it out there yet that you need to stay home. If they all stayed at home he'll probably expect you will too. If they are educated working women he'll probably want that in a spouse too. 
Whatever you do, don't waste time. Cast a wide net and discard any guy who isn't meeting your standards. Time is not on your side here. It much easier to get away with this if you are still young (under 30). [/quote]

Indian dudes want educated women, whether they plan to stay at home or not. [/quote]
