Anyone From the Northeast Dating Outside? Need Insights!

Hey guys! Anyone from the Northeast here who’s in a relationship or married to someone from another part of India? How did it work out for you, and how did you convince your parents? Asking for a friend—she’s from North India, and her boyfriend is from Manipur. They’ve been together for three years, but she’s kinda nervous about the whole 'convincing parents' part. Would love to hear your experiences!
