She's not into Asian guys. last time I saw her was over 5 years ago and she was walking with an Asian boyfriend. I didn't say a word, but I know she's older and her parents are pressuring her... her life. She had drinking problems anyway so that was going to be a problem sooner or later.
One of my friends is married to a Filipino girl, married for 15years. I have lots of Asian friends from the various countries. the younger they are, the cooler.
OH, I was about to ask the SAME question "Why is she not your GF or wife" - but not surprised by your answer.

I can totally understand your case because it has happened to quite a few friends of mine, but my case is a little different because I'm actually Asian (different nationality than her, but still Asian). I agree with you though that it seems to be a common problem for the older generation (I'd say massively around Baby Boomer generation?) and that the latter Generation X onward are more and more open minded.
