I suppose it's a matter of perspective. Technically you are not foreigners to each other if you are both from the same country. However, if the two of you are from different countries, then you are foreigners to each other. And if you are not from the United States, then you are foreigners to me. And BTW, I love foreigners. I have lived in England & Germany and traveled as far as Indonesia for vacations. Thanks for the post! Both foreigners — that sounds like double foreigncation.

Occasionally the form of the word and the definition is a bit off. Pedrophilia would be the tendency towards or abnormal liking of Pedro. Pedrophile would be the person with that tendency. I was tempted to revise/correct the post, but then the comments will not make sense -- I'll leave the original post intact. Thanks for reading & commenting! Yes, you’re correct!
