Nationality should be the last respect to choose friends atleast in this century. There should be no discrimination based on nationality. If anyone is doin it then they dont deserve your friendship as simple as that.

well its their preference, we cant judge them for that. anyway, knowing that they dont want to be friends with you just because of your nationality is reason enough not to worry if they dont want to be friends with you..This world is so huge and there are so many people out there who think differently..so by saying that, there's still hope!

That is not why I wouldn't be someone's friend. I think being different is good for a friendship. I don't understand someone who wouldn't be your friend because you are different than them, or because you are indian. I only chose not to be friends with people that I can't get along with. If people are rude, or inconsiderate I definitely would not be their friend. Other than those two things, I pretty much get along with people, no matter what their ethnicity is. I moved around a lot as a child, and I had many different people as friends. I was never a part of a "clic" or a group of a certain type of people. In high school, I blended well with all of the "clics" that were around. We had the jocks, and the rockers, and skaters, and black people, gangster wanna be's, geeks, and preps, those were all of the little clics we had, and I didn't belong to any of them, but I got along with all of them. I had friends from all of the different groups. I never felt the need to belong. I was just happy to be me.
