I am autistic and I am grateful that we live in a society where freedom and human rights are enshrined. I have been to India a couple of times and dated girls there who I met online and they find me charming as I'm white skinned and I am treated like a celebrity in India. However many Indian families completely disapprove their children having relationships with or marrying foreigners as they are expected to marry people only within their caste. I am in a situation where I am talking to someone in India who I met on tinder and I am worried as after the lockdown is over in both India and UK her parents will take her into an arranged marriage before I can meet her or her parents will find out we have been talking to each other online and will force her to block me which is what happened with another girl I met in India last time I went there last time and my heart was broken for a long time. Although we have to respect each others cultures and beliefs I want to talk to her parents and tell her that I want to marry her in a couple of years time once we get our careers sorted out and that I am a caring and lovable character. If you want to marry someone from a different culture whose parents will be concerned would having a discussion with the parents be a good strategy which includes telling them you're autistic? For autistic people going to a country with a conservative lifestyle it can be difficult to understand and follow local laws and customs which could easily get you into trouble.
