Re: Best friend of the opposite sex
it used to be very uncommon a few decades ago but this trend is changing and such cases now exist even in Pakistan. I have got some very good female friends and my family knows about them. However, the fact stands that desi parents behave differently when it’s a girl having friendship with boys.
As some one mentioned eariler, this thing is not typical to Desi families. I had a very good friend, she was Egyption christian and her parents moved to states back in 60ies. Her dad was ok but her mom had serious issues over her friendship with me and used to refer me as terrorist friend when speaking to her about me
