1. "I thought you were/are Indian." - I asked this question in a different thread and was told that it should be 'were.' I didn't think much about it but now I'm starting to wonder whether we use 'were' here because I thought he was Indian but he turned out to be Mexican. And if that's the case what if I guessed his nationality right? Would I say "I thought he is Mexican and I am right"?
2. I go somewhere and find out that one of the people left- "I thought she was/still here."
3. "We had some bad experience in the past as some of our customers didn't know how to use this machine." - I'm confused between didn't and don't.
