What's interesting is that my Taiwanese wife and I met, literally, the exact same way and she was the first to message me on Facebook. I actually went to Taiwan first, then she came to the states. Went on like that for some time, I lived in Taiwan for a while and we ended up back in the US and currently reside here. But I want to move back to Taiwan and remain there in the near future.
Dear Logan, your love story was not that "crazy" like mine. I went to my wife home to meet her with a matchmaker, and immediately determined that she is the one for me. I proposed less than 3 months after our first meet and our marriage has "survived" pretty well since 1988. Wish yours survive forever.
Back to 2014 Xmas eve, I met my German Husband at frist time in Taichung , we contacted with other through CS, he joined a hiking trip with me and my friends in 合歡mt, after that we have been traveled in my hometown Taitong and Japan/ Korea for more than 1 month.. Then he went back to Germany as his plans, but.... After 4-5 months, he came back to Taiwan for me, that decision made us get married and now we are in our marriage for 5years with a 4 year cute daughter 💕
I think you were not misled by “together” “在一起” She was indeed asking if you want to be TOGETHER with her ！ Brave girl got a good husband 、 and you got a wonderful wife ! Good for you both ❤️
I am so happy to see that you cherish and value her and her sacrifices for you, and reciprocally, you sacrificed for her as well ❤️😊 Not every man knows how to cherish what they got but a man who does, is a good man.
There’s a difference, though, between having a “type” and reducing people to a singular, uncontrollable factor about themselves, like race. This fetishisation/racial stereotyping often comes down to problematic stereotypes of Asian women: docile, subservient, sexually submissive. Objectifying, exotifying, and hypersexualizing an individual because of one's race is shallow. "Yellow Fever" -Being in love with the idea of someone without actually getting to know the person as an individual is unfair and disrespectful. It’s an awful feeling to realize that the cute dude who approached you is as interested in you as he is in every other girl who shares your race: you’re as special as millions of others and you are expected to fulfil those Asian woman stereotypes. Adding all these Asian women on Facebook clearly indicates any of them would've been fine with him!
I just saw this video, but my husband and I just celebrated our 5th anniversary and we got married after only dated for 4 months too! lol He's American and I'm Taiwanese as well, hahaha. Our love story isn't something too romantic because we actually met on Tinder in the US lol It's been a bumpy ride for sure, and we have a daughter together!
Thanks for sharing your story! Congrats and many more happy years for you and your family! I found you from a comment made on Johnny .....I can't remember his last name Harris maybe? Anyways I'm someone who hasn't ever traveled and I'm just so fascinated with people who have really lived!
