Been living in US for last 3 and half years. Don't want to say either I'm guy or girl. But anyways, how is it possible to find a Nepali partners here in US? Everyone seems busy in their own lives. Need to find someone. Any tips?

Why don't you put an ad out inthis site(with picture). If you're good looking enough and have a wallet thick enough maybe you will get luck with it(since you didn't specify your gender).
Or there is always the dating services.. they are pretty helpful.
If you're looking for lost souls there is chinatown @2am everyday waiting for you.

Single,
Didn't you go to the ANA conference in Philadelphia? That is what them conferences are for, you know? Wait for the next one. There are so many Nepali organizations in the U.S. there is bound to be another conference in your neighbourhood soon.

I think Single here has raised a perfectly valid question. I am sure lots of Nepali students and professionals in foreign countries go through the same situation. You start growing up in a foreign country and see the society there, you want to fit in but you can't. So you end up looking for someone from your own country, preferably someone who's had some exposure to the foriegn society you're living in so that there's something in common.
I don't think it's something to ridicule or make fun of. I think a good way to meet someone and express one's interest would be to get phone numbers and call them to see if they are interested!

The interesting thing is the way this ties in with the earlier discussion about lack of volunteers at Nepali events.
One typical way that Americans meet other singles is by volunteering. I know the media image is that Americans all hang out at bars and discos and wild parties and meet by saying "hey babe" or something. But the reality is that people meet, overwhelmingly, through mutual interests. A lot of times it's college classes, or at extracurricular/afterwork volunteer organizations, or through friends they meet at those kinds of things.
I think that the chance to make friends with similar world views--and therefore have fun and, in the long run, find Significant Others--is one of the big driving forces behind all volunteer groups. I suspect that's true whether the volunteer activity of choice is hiking with the Sierra Club, or joining an animal rights protest outside a fur store, or going to a church group, or learning yoga. Since Americans don't have parents to find appropriate partners for them, they have to do the job themselves--and that means, first of all, figuring out who you are (e.g., what you care about and like to do), and where a person who cares about the same things might possibly hang out.
None of which necessarily helps a Nepali in the US who is in search of someone with a similar background but doesn't want to go the arranged marriage route at this point. But if you volunteer with (or try to start) Nepali groups doing whatever it is you like to do--playing volleyball or planning a party or raising money or whatever--chances of eventually meeting someone you click with are certainly higher than if you stay home!!! Good luck.

Depends on what type of quality you are looking for. You need to define the right person first. Gooding looking? Personality? Funny? Rich? Honest? Faitful? Sober? Can't find the perfect people so need to compromise in something. Well I am also looking for a right girl.... but my experience says that does not work today.

This is obscene and nasty. And I just skimmed it, I don't even want to read the whole thing. Please, would-be rapper, don't impose your own juvenile bad taste on other people like this.
I don't agree with censorship, but this sort of thing is inappropriate for a community-oriented site. What's next ... porno pictures?

There are thousands of people all around you. Each of them is feeling unappreciated and insecure in love. Latch onto one of them and show them that you are like them. You will be surprised how many acquaintances, friends, eventual lovers you can make of the ordinary people around you. You might have to adjust your expectations.

IT SEEMS THAT LAMI CAREER IN USA IS NOT BAD IDEA. He/She can make good money by just helping to unite. We might have to ask Rajaram Poudal of MAHA groupto come USA TO BE lami...not bad idea.
