Yes, we definitely do limit ourselves to making only Muslim friends or maybe even more narrowed down to only Muslim desi friends. I am so happy to have non-Muslim friends in my life. We’ve always been there for one another, never lost touch. A lot of times, especially with Muslim girls, it’s like once one gets married, the friendship ends because you move away and you don’t stay in touch. I think a reason why some tend to have only Muslim friends is because once you get to college, a lot of those non-Muslim friends get into drinking, clubbing, etc.- their lifestyle changes and we do not feel comfortable hanging out with them anymore. But I would request people to not stereotype all non-Muslims like that. There are quite a few people who live a more sober lifestyle and can make great friends.
