NOTE: THE BEHAVIOUR LISTED MAY, OR MAY NOT APPLY TO CERTAIN PEOPLE IF THEY STILL LIVE IN THEIR NATIVE COUNTRY. SOME CULTURES REQUIRE UTMOST RESPECT IN TERMS OF RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN ELDER PEOPLE AND YOUNGER GENERATIONS. MOST OF THE STUFF LISTED APPLIES TO PEOPLE LIVING OUTSIDE THEIR NATIVE COUNTRIED, BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THE OBSERVATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.)
Hey, this thought came to me when I was reading a thread about asian friends, and it actually sparks some food for thought, and me and my friends realised that a lot of the stuff was pretty true.
Has anyone noticed that out of a large number of nationalities, that asians are most... Ahem. Wanted? As in, a lot of people want asian friends. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for that, but it's an observation. I mean, the asian crews, the gangs, it's all a big family for us, and correct me if I'm wrong, we tend to be somewhat different (in a GOOD WAY) than that of your average friend.
Now. Let me list some things about asian friends that I MYSELF have observed from my asian friends and myself (I'm in a pretty mixed group @ school, with about either half or three-quarters are asian), plus the people I hang out with out of school. So if I get something wrong, I beg of you not to stamp your feet, and break things, as I mentioned in the bold note above. neutral
-Either it's us who bring the good stuff, whether it be food, or accessories, or we're the ones scabbing off our other friends for it. There's hardly anything in between for us, as in, we sit there, idly twiddling our thumbs and being content with what we do or don't have.
-We're pretty protective and loyal to our other friends, and if we get betrayed, IT'S WAR!! And then you have all your OTHER asian friends to back you up. That is, if you hang out with other asians. If not, then you know not double-cross people who DO.
-Somehow we manage to nearly always pull through for our friends, even when we've been a complete and total failure of late. And even when we DO fail our friends, we make a miraculous comeback by making it up to them somehow.
-When our other friends can't finish some food or a drink or something, we're like, 'Are you gonna eat that?' or 'Are you gonna finish that?' or something. ALL the asian people I'm friends with do that, including me. 3nodding What can I say, we got a big part of our lives centered around food!
-Once you get to know us, and become tight with us, we become very colloquial. When we're at a friends place, we'll act like it's ours, and when we're with your relatives, we act like their ours as well. The same goes for a lot of other things.
If anyone can think of anything else, feel free to list it, and discuss it or any of the things I listed above.

DuMaKenshinXD asian's have there down sides.. They talk s**t about each other alot. and they tend to get into gay cliques. When start does happen.. theres just alot of yelling, usually All Asian's are attention whores, thats right even me..Some asians just over do things..
Yeah. I agree, asians have their downsides, but so does everyone else. I can't think of any right now, stare but different people have different flaws. And we don't all talk s**t about each other. If we do, it's usually just for fun when the person's around or they aren't and then we tell them and laugh about it later, or we really just don't like the person, but they hang with us, so then we just b***h and b***h. xp Not good, I know, but it's true for a lot of the people I hang with. But I'm tight with my asian friends. So we're cool. whee
And, if I may correct you, A LOT of asians are attention seekers, but not all. You can't really say they are, either. I suppose it would be safe to say that asians are posers, whether it be big-time action pose or just the funny face and the peace sign. But one of my asian friends, one of many, is one of the most shy people I know. She's comfortable around her friends, but she is NOT an attention seeker. She can draw attention, but not on purpose. surprised
