One of the most bizarre thing that ever happened to me in Asia, not in China (Malaysia); my girlfriend disappeared one day because she got married. She even had requested a "loan" last day I saw her, which (I later found out) basically went to pay for her part of the wedding. Of course, her marriage collapsed shortly after, but I was with someone else; a) she called and wanted to get back together, b) her brother calls and begged me to take her back, and c) her ex-husband called and warned me that she was coming for my money...

@@incoherentturd Western women are not so different from China's women at all!!! They also go for $$$ and for "full-head-of-hair" and what part of the city he lives in, and job-title and ego evil power, and even if he has a yacht. Divorce rate comes from many factors, including a drop from any of those characteristics, and unforgiving stiff inflexibility of principles -- also about "status" and ego idolatry. The English language lumps too many versions or sub-definitions together into one overloaded word "Love". Love must include affinity though, or else your definition of "duty & loyalty" can be just an employment contract, or an abusive psych/social arrangement (eg- narcissist with a "supply"). Its not love if there is no positive *Affect* (not to be confused with Effect) or affinity happening 2-way traffic, or taking turns at "duty", not just a 1-way street.

@@rollinghippo2940 A money obsessed culture stems out of a scarcity culture. If a nation is either very poor or rich but with very low social safety nets (high stakes culture), then life very easily becomes such where financial issues will always be the main issues to which everything else is subjugated. This money obsessed culture can last a long time after things in society change, since at that point it may have become just the general culture without any second thought about where it originally came from. If every day is a struggle and/or you are constantly reminded of how easy it is to lose everything and become dirt poor with extremely low quality of life, then it's really hard to genuinely enjoy your life, relationships or anything really. This is not a China problem, this is in varying degrees in many many countries. Maybe it's very visible in China, but the essence of this behaviour isn't unique at all.

@@serpentza a culture gap? I mean to be fair, there's two sides to this and i sort of question an industry where it might be implied white boy finds China exotic, white boy seeks to embrace China, white boy realises huge culture incompatibilities exist, white boy trashes China. I'm not saying not to make political or cultural criticism but is it fair to put women from a different culture on a pedestal of idealism and then knock them off again once they fail to be like us? Don't get me wrong, an analysis of economy-driven behaviour in intercultural or Chinese romance is fair enough. In another way, maybe what you're seeing is a culture that a) never went through second wave feminism but b) is in late capitalism but following massively accelerated growth from a communist economy. It's just not really an ordinary situation. Utility - look i'm at the start of the video, what i object to online is personal attacks on the reputations of individuals who have no way to defend themselves. If i were ever to have a date with you and you were just awful, i would never plaster up your image with your face pixellated out. I think that's out of order. I mean, certain Chinese customs may certainly seem rough/rude from the perspective of Western habits. But there's almost certainly a reverse of this. I wonder what Chinese expats think of white dudes fresh off the boat making it with all the local girls, do you know what i'm saying? I'm not attacking white dudes, i'm saying your own behaviour could seem rude, ungrateful or frustrating in ways where the perception of this possibility could be something you're unaware of, blind to. Culture gaps go both ways. The fact is that yes, Westerners may receive favour because of perceived utility. And, at the end of the day, this is how men have traditionally been assessed before second wave feminism, as the provider or bread winner. This element may be considered as or, as we see, far more important than romance. For you, this crushes your sense of romance: the woman only wants you for your wallet. But to her, she might not understand such offence, in that overall and in the new economy, in China, a country of billions, the need to find a reliable provider may be drilled into the heads of some people since day one. Should we judge this behaviour as ignorant and rude? I think it's more complicated than that, given that other aspects of this lifestyle quickly seduced you in direct comparison to the West. I dunno, i just question an industry of the turned China-fancier. I think that's what this is and i'm just not sure if it's fair because you may have exoticised China. A bunch of people have travelled there without much background knowledge on the history and culture whatsoever, but the idea there wouldn't be cultural gaps in a relationship betwedn a mainland Chinese lady and a Westerner, dude maybe it's neither of your faults if the average attempt meets some sharp stumbling blocks. Yes, we might find the Chinese relationship with economy somewhat alienating but again, not much need for a Pikachu face there either, i think what would be unusual is if you had no problems in your relationship of an economic nature. I also guess that _class_ would be a huge factor in a post-communist, totalitarian-capitalist China. The position of a woman whose parents are poor farmers who came to the city to work in a factory or something is going to be pretty different to a rich girl whose father is a doting merchant who happens to be doing very well. Just a devil's advocate to consider. As a woman i would strongly discourage you from using a pixellated image of a real person you're dissing in a thumbnail. Unless you are happy for your image to be used by others in such ways. Just saying. It's pretty rough. I assume it's not that she tried to murder you or anything but that she was greedy and ungrateful by your standards. I mean if everyone took this approach about people they dated who failed to impress them...
@mothratemporalradio517
@mothratemporalradio517 Год назад
OP, to be honest, i think some men would consider that scenario an absolute blessing! But i am not a man so cannot confirm. You mean you just never buy your wife gifts and she has been happy with that for over three decades? On an economic level, what is there to complain about? Maybe her parents were taught that gift giving was imperialist nonsense? Then if an economic token of personal affection is warranted, don't they usually give money? I suppose a person who may have been brought up with frugal ideals would hate waste. And if besides the matter of ritual, the truth was that a gift wasn't that suitable in reality - a frugal sort might rather you don't waste your money, and have been raised to believe that sacrificing the need for economic niceties is an act of love, and therefore romantic. So that's a different reading of the same norms. She can probably go without just as easily as you can live without having to celebrate Chinese New Year. Do you know what i mean? That's a ritual but it's unlikely to have quite the same import to you.

I was in a relationship for about 7 years with a Chinese woman - but with UK citizenship. I completely agree with your summing. She was a Beijing ‘princess’ and while she was 43 when she first came to stay as a couch surfer, I believe she had never been in a relationship - focused totally on work and saving for her pension. She was highly intelligent and was head hunted out of her job in China and moved to the UK - taking citizenship there after a few years. In her own words, she lived a solitary, Chinese life there, not speaking with many people in case her poor English gave people the impression that she wasn’t as clever as she was. She’d taken a three month break from her job to travel. She was brave in that sense and traveled as economically as was possible - hours on Couchsurf website and looking for the one pound deal some bus companies offered. I didn’t have a lot of money but supported us well enough - asking nothing of her. She did have a pretty horrible temper though. After about five years, she topping up her pension fund from one of several UK bank accounts, it was becoming apparent that we couldn’t go on and that the next time she visited her parents in Beijing, she would probably return to the UK. The pandemic gave us two years of separate room - she in the master and me in the guest room - for a quiet life. Inscrutable - it was probably about four years into the relationship that I learned from her that she was probably a multi millionaire in China - a two bedroom apartment in downtown Beijing as well as the two floor apartment she would eventually inherit - not far away. A Chinese first world problem is that there’s a limit to the amount of money she can take out annually - or a once off taking of all your assets. Not possible as she couldn’t do that while her parents were alive as she’d lose out on her inheritance. When we eventually parted, she wished me luck on meeting the right person for me, she contacted me only when she needed help or advice - i believe I’m probably the only person that got close to even knowing her - her only friend that she didn’t need to lose her ‘mask’ for - including her parents. When I told her that I had met someone, she said she was happy for me but when I told her that it was serious, she said she never wanted to talk to me again - ever. Poor little rich girl.

Remember, the Chinese are not a single unified race/ethic/ culture to be exact. It depends on the region. It should be obvious. Just look at the landmass. Do you think they are all the same? Heck, even though the US has only 200+ years of history, people speak slightly different dialects, and behave and think differently. Imagine what 2000+ years would be like, not to mention some Chiese cannot even speak Mandarin even within the "Huns". So are you still going to consider them "Chinese"? What is the definition of Chinese to be exact? Of coz you would adopt the CCP's definition because they want to tell the world and their own people that they are all the same, but nah, anthropology wouldn't allow that.

You're 100% correct about the pirated software . The average Chinese (so called) 'software specialist' doesn't have a clue about writing software and to be honest they don't need to as they paste and copy everything from the Internet . All they do is go into the special sites and take what they need. We had a female Chinese IT person who was so useless that she spent 3 years retaking her 2nd year exams in her Computer Degree till finally the company told her to -"Get out ,you're useless". With the Chinese and their mentality it's a case of -"Why should i learn it when i can steal it".

I am Asian American and I grew up in Vietnam until I was 14, 30 years ago. I had different experience. Women where so loyal and different back then. This is from my experience with my mom. Mind you, my mom married an American GI during the Vietnam war. When American pulled out he was being pulled back to the states when the war about to be over. She never saw him or heard from him but she remained single and took care of us. She was a beautiful woman so was my aunts and uncle. She had many men tried to be with her but she rejected them all and dedicated her life to us (me and my sister). When I came to the States (US) I realized that Vietnamese women/girls here are difference. They are extremely materialistic. Being an Asian guy I always had the thing for Asian... for a longest time I was hurt and burnt by all these Asian girls i dated. I am sure there are good one out there and I am just attracted to the gold diggers. SO don't take it personal to those guys who lucky enough to have a good Asian woman. I have not been back since I came and I am sure things changed alot in Vietnam since. I know for the fact guys from the states went back and played with those innocent girls and make empty promises to get them in bed. So eventually the girls caught up and play the same game back to get money or whatever. It is a horrible world. There has to be a cause so there is an effect. I am now married to a caucasian (American Irish) girls who is the most wonderful girl I ever met and we have two most beautiful daughters (twins).

Later, she found out he was not rich, and tried to come back to me. I really thought she was one kind of person, and found out she was the exact opposite... It's a shame, really.

Coming from a Taiwanese household now living in the US, there's still a few cultural overlaps where the Taiwanese are still somewhat utilitarian-focused when it comes to marriage. Love is at best secondary, but a stable income and being able to eat should always come first, and this shocked my westerner friends even till this day. I don't think all the wacky ideals happen solely because of awful CCP policies, but moreso we have learned to phase out some of the archaic cultural ideals over time especially after all the western influence. For example, the idea of cheating being "normal" has been an assumption and less of a shock because of fiction, folklore, and just that being the norms for many generations especially among the wealthy. There's always a saying where if a married man is wealthy, we automatically assume he would have mistresses because of the power he has. However, that is definitely frowned upon by the Taiwanese.

She was really blunt about almost everything and it took a while for me to understand that this was part of her personality now although she had lived in the US for several years at that point. We were the focus of much of her free time right after she was divorced from her American husband but as soon as she met her current husband, we didn't even get a phone call after that point. At least she invited us to the wedding. 😐 We haven't seen her since.

Crazy how accurate you are about everything you said about Chinese culture. I experienced all of that, too. About the cheating topic, when I first arrived in China Sept/Oct 2009, I was invited to a Hot Pot dinner at a restaurant. There were about two other men there and the rest were women(if memory serves, about seven). I got into a conversation with 2-3 of them I was single and asking if any of them had boyfriends. All did. I asked why they didn't bring them to the dinner and I was surprised by the answer. They all said they didn't want to bring them because they were afraid to lose them to other ladies at the dinner. I had to ask, would any of you actually try to steal someone else's boyfriend? And 100% of the single ladies said "yes".

I don't understand the Pikachu face and explained why in my other comments. In the West, yes. I would feel you. In China, no. They never had second wave feminism and have a completely dissimilar economic history and reality. There was never any gender role revolution per se. I think what a lot of dudes don't realise about feminism is where it benefitted men (including the introduction of "the pill"). Usually only its perceived detriment is noted. But in fact differing gender relations, for better or worse, led to a technically more egalitarian approach towards heterosexual relationships in the West. Even if elements of these changes also may have backfired in certain ways for both genders here. So, as reductive examples, in the West, the guy may be less likely to expect it's the woman's job to cook.. Altho stats suggest that women working hasn't necessarily take away trad housework or childcare expectations. Conversely, the woman may be less likely to expect the guy to be the breadwinner. More than that, economic changes have meant a male breadwinner is usually impossible in most Western households these days, except for the very wealthy. Because you often can't support two people, much less a family, on an average single wage these days. Jobs used to be much more secure. In the eyes of someone raised to narrow them about breadwinning - who was taught to privilege this attribute as a motive when selecting who to date and when - this job loss of yours was unfortunately likely perceived as "happening within only a few months of dating". And therefore was seen as the dreaded Red Flag, Zhongguo style. But, were there advantages to dating such a woman generally not connected with Western dating? Maybe this woman seemed to find your jokes terribly funny and to coo and massage your neck as soon as you come in from work, without fail, every time? It's perhaps just not an unconditional arrangement in reality.. and the illusion may have been that the more alluring treatment was nothing to do with money. I don't know as a woman how people feel when they act like that (conditional in that way) so i can't comment. But since i'm apparently playing devil's advocate, maybe it doesn't read as unromantic to them? They want economic security and are willing to go the extra mile for it, and associated behaviour might be ritualistic. They might still feel emotionally connected somehow as long as those circumstances act as a mechanism? I dunno. I couldn't be like that but i've been conditioned in our culture. Economic security is nothing to sniff at though.

@pixelpusher1393

​@@Unfunny_Username_389 Well..... it´s complicated I guess. Maybe the rate of breakdown of marriages is a natural, yet conveniently ignored result of choosing a partner based on emotions, rather than economic factors and social rung of your own family and that of your future spouse. And maybe we should look more at the bright side: Despite the insecurities of changing emotions and personalities over time, approx. 50% of marriages stay together. Choice of partner based on emotions is less a result of Hollywood, and much more a result of changes in the socioeconomic fabric beginning in the sixties: Women were no longer dependent on their husbands to attain social standing and an attractive standard of living, and men no longer needed a wife to run the household and cook, something which required serious knowledge before the availability of fridges, microwave ovens, laundromats, vacuum cleaners, frozen food, etc. The term batchelor scurvy ring a bell? Though not precisely causative, the disconnect between sex and pregnancy was the icing on the cake in this development: The pill became available in the sixties, and Roe v Wade - well, you can understand why some of the news media speak of a seismic shift after the leaked draft of the SCOTUS re. abortions. On a sidenote re. the expected ruling on Roe v Wade: Once people begin to understand the far reaching socioeconomic ramifications I wouldn´t be surprised if the (g)rabbed (o)bedient (p)ussies will at some point begin to curse the decision to shake hands with the devil - meaning the evangelicals - based on a deal of evangelical votes in exchange for anti-abortion judges. What IS an invention of Hollywood (and the entire romance racket) is the conflation of the religious underpinning of marriage ("What God has joined together let no man put asunder") with personal emotions and feelings. For some odd reason humans seem to think that somehow their rush of emotions is so overwhelming that it must be divine in origin, or at the very least a stroke of fate, in the sense of: "It is meant to be". The irony is that before the sixties, the religious and socioeconomic straitjacket around marriage was meant to achieve what the lack of an emotional bond between partners couldn´t do to keep two people together, and after the sixties personal emotions and feelings were expected to replace this religious and socioeconomic straitjacket with the same amount of force and effectiveness. The latter notion was and is - shall we say: unrealistic?! At any rate, we humans seem to like the notion that choice of partner is something taken out of our hands and responsibilities because it is ordained by some ever so elusive higher force, when in fact it is deep down much more a form of negotiation between "What do I hope to get, and what opportunities (if any) have chance and coincidence currently dealt to me?". Finally: What is probably more important than the initial rush of emotions is the simple day to day workings of a relationship: Are you a good team? Are you loyal to each other? Do you support and complement each other? Etc....

I can totally relate to this. In the UK I arranged to go on a date with a Chinese girl when I worked near London. A day before the date I didnt like the vibe I got from our text chat so I gracefully bowed out, sending her a tactful message saying I had to cancel and wishing her the best. That did not go down well, I got a livid phone call back, being shouted at with things like “YOU ARE LITTLE GIRL, YOU LITTLE GIRL.” I immediately started to get phone calls throughout the day to my work mobile, from phone boxes around her village, from a guy who was clearly her best mate and got a kick out of putting on silly voices. I reported it to the police and they did nothing. It went on for about 6 months so I changed my number, then after a year they somehow got hold of my new number and it started up again so I had to change it again. All that from texting a girl for a week and not even meeting her once. Anyway, I learnt a lesson - never even consider going on a date with a Chinese girl unless you know exactly what you’re in for.

I totally understand everything that you said because I've experienced it with my ex-fiancee. I am not bitter and I hold no ill will towards her because I understand the cultural norms that she had to experience which naturally developed her character. Most relationships problems occur when we project our particular morals and cultural norms and perspectives on the other person from a different culture. Here in America, there are subcultures within the United States that also need to be taken into consideration when forming relationships. I remember asking my ex fiance what she loved about me? She told me she loved my hands, she loved my blue eyes and she loved my white skin. That blew my mind! It took me some time to understand that what she said was culturally an asset valuation of an acquisition for her life and ego. She had actually lamented to me that she didn't like being yellow, which I didn't understand as a distress to her because I didn't see it. Me being an individual with a personality and a certain character was not part of her conceptual norm as to my valuation because she had no foundational understanding. When dealing with persons from communist countries it is critically important to understand the parameters and scope of their understandings and experiences and lack of religious cultural norms. You're a good man and I always enjoy your programs and I'm happy that you have a wonderful wife and family. Carpe diem.

I suppose the question is “how long should it be before there’s a reasonable expectation for of being healed?” unfortunately from my experience of other traumatized cultures and subcultures, the answer is at times “healing never happens to a far degree.” If that is the case here, then it leads to an even more unfortunate question which would be “if there’ll never be fully healed and it’ll always be like this, is there a point where it’s no longer a good enough “excuse” warranting such a level of understanding?”

I also lived in many countries as a child owing to my father’s work and travelled young single person living and working in countries owing to my work … so your video speaks a universal truth about growing up poor with fragmented family members … being desperate to create a different reality as a female. It is good that your life is what you have made it and better because of choices you made. Thanks again

I've met and known many Chinese women in NYC, some were very flirtatious when I was in a power position (i.e. an executive at a company, or a professor), however I've always been mystified about what their true feelings were - like maybe they were only interested if they thought I could do something for them. Whereas with hispanic women, they wear their feelings on their sleeves, you always know exactly how they feel, and they are very emotional, sexual, and loyal - they will not always tell you in words when they are angry, but it's not hard to figure out. Hispanic women will also fall in love with a penniless man. Strange how humans from different cultures can be so different.

Thanks, Winston, for sharing your experiences. I made the same discovery after over a decade of marriage to a Chinese woman. I had always wondered why I had to advocate and bargain for my own needs and desires in life and relationships, and eventually i figured out it really was bargaining in the business sense; I was a cog in the machine of her goals. "Your feelings are useless," and "marriage is a financial contract" are some of the things she told me near the end of the relationship and didn't seem to understand why it was such a turn-off for me. Once i knew how she really felt, there was no going back. However, it was another Chinese woman, now my 2nd wife, that gave me her empathy and support when I lost pretty much everything in the divorce, and now continues to stick with and support me while I am battling cancer. Never judge an individual solely based on their culture. It is true that there are many Chinese women who are after utilitarian marriage contracts, but it is also true that there are genuinely loving, faithful, and gracious Chinese women who will appreciate you for who you are.

The first girl that I was interested in was from China, and indeed she refused to go out with me as I didn't have a lot of money as I was still doing my PhD. The funny thing is this happened in the UK. 12 years later, I met my wife in Hong Kong who was also from China. The reason I knew that she liked me only, is that she never asked me for money ever and even when we got married, she, and her parents, never asked about financial matters in any way. They did quiz me however to make sure that I did indeed have a PhD even asking me maths questions lol:). The reality is that certain families in China are not at all motivated by money and really respect academic excellence and fidelity.

My sense from having friends with HK parents is that the culture is completely different from mainland China despite still sharing some Han Chinese traditions. Different language, different religious orientation where relevant, different government, even a different sense if humour if you ask me, HK cinema often had a flair for wacky slapstick.. HK was never communist and so never snapped into accelerated totalitarian capitalism with growth of development outpacing other areas of life. HK though Chinese and overpacked is arguably much more attuned with certain Western sensibility including democracy and resistance to "communism". It has no impoverished rural areas although there's extreme poverty, so, there's many less daughters of poor farmers. I'm really glad you found a person who loves you for you. Congrats! And it's great you were not pressured by her family. I know less about that because some Confucian ideals could still apply in Asian culture outside mainland China, but this probably varies significantly.

Your story sounds similar to mine, but it took place in South Korea. 7 years in South Korea. 3 as an ESL teacher 2 as a graduate student. 2 as an U.S. soldier. The ex dumped me during my 3rd semester of grad school in Seoul after 3 years. Needless to say, I decided to join the army since she told me I was too old to do it. She never came back when the army sent me back to Korea, but it was for the better because I know the man she left me for ended things with her 1.5 years later. When the army offered me Germany as my next assignment, I thought to myself, "I need a break from East Asia." It was the best decision I have ever made. I have nothing but love for Korea, but my friends in Seoul have told me repeatedly how lucky I am that I got to go to Europe. Korean culture suffocates their own and they refuse to acknowledge it. That is why the birthrate is lower than Japan's and the suicide rate is the highest in the industrialized world. I am two hours away from Switzerland and just being able to hike around the Swiss Alps is nature's version of therapy. Getting dumped hurts initially, but you can dust yourself off and bounce back if you have your wits about you.

China runs on a very myopic and antiquated definition of survival where people choose short-term solutions at the expense of their medium to long-term well-being.

I agree. In fact, the same thoughts continue to cross my mind after a traumatic experience with a Chinese girl from the mainland: she didn't do herself a favour WHATSOEVER in letting me go. But she did it because she didn't get the short-term gains she "expected" from her man (her longterm prospects were excellent with me). So she decided to look for another guy. But her value on the market already started to go down (at age 33); and this market is governed by Nature and not by men; so, I ask my female readers her to get real and not blame us. The whole thing about heterosexual relations is quite messed up. We all could go on forever discussing this here, but in the end, some get lucky, the majority does not. Schopenhauer explained it all in his "Metaphysics of heterosexual love."

Either way, the world keeps spinning. I just want to point out though that even the lower level 5 Cs that you listed are pretty damn shallow, except for "Commitment" and "Compassion".

It's sad that so many marriages in China are loveless. A number of years ago I read a book by Dianne Wei Liang called "Lake with No Name". It's about her life as a university student during the time of the Tiananmen Square incident and the story of her love of a fellow student. That story, and especially the poem at the front of the book is the most powerful description of a love affair that I have ever encountered in my life. This includes books, songs, movies, anything. So, as you say, it does happen. I'm glad you found Sasha.

You should write a biography, Winston. You've had a lot of experiences and have a lot of wisdom. The story about the attack on your family in S. Africa is terrifying - and this story about a cold-hearted woman is disconcerting.

"The essence of Hell is the absence of love." Perhaps the "cold-hearted" woman, as you put it, truly was in love with Winston, but the social/cultural pressures resulted in resorting to doing what her culture had taught her--think back to how long she stayed with him as he was looking for work. With pressure building up behind her with every failed attempt. She's a human being and so are you, so please be careful with passing judgment before taking the time necessary to think through the situation. God bless.

@@Cyric1983. The issue here is how cold hearted jmmoral to dump ghost sum1 after emotionally attached and invested in. That's wrong in most traditional societies, but modern Western ideals, feminism, and communism, have brainwashed most women into entitled behaviour, not about Survival, but about a moue luxurious opulent life. Most women leave, when they see that high life doesn't look like its gonna happen. But some good women don't think like that. They have traditional values of morals, ethics, character, integrity. These are rare these days. Women today always try justify their immoral behaviour with financial excuses. That's feminism. Cultural Marxism social engineering. Brain washed robots with no Empathy. They see men as always a exist, chauvinist, though they're not, and as the enemy, unless they serve the women's interests. This toxic attitude is backfiring though... As all the decent good men, will have nothing to do with these nasty minded whores. Hence going abroad for traditional women not affected by feminism and materialism. So in the end, women of that ilk lose, for being feminist. Materialism is incompatible with Morality. Gain vs Give .. Love is about Giving. Materialism is about Gain and Get. Women have lost sight of that fact. They think Hollywood romance is real, when it's just fantasy and never lasts, bcoz the woman sabotages the relationship, out of dissatisfied reality, when her fantasy is not realised, so leaves, looking elsewhere for the golden unicorn of luxury life, in the man who can give that to her... Only realising that, in the end, that vacuous empty selfish materialism has no meaning, depth, or truth and she destroyed all that really mattered in her brainwashed pursuit of that delusional fantasy thinking it would give her true happiness, when it just gives her temporary fixes of Dopamine, she's addicted to, and ends in misery, as materialism only feeds the monster, never satisfies the soul or heart, spirit or mind.

Hey mate, I made a similar experience with a Chinese girl in terms of that she let me down when not having money. She bluntly said to me that we can get back together when i saved some money. That learned me a lesson for all other relationships I had in China after. Thanks for telling your story so clear and openly.

I had the exact same situation happen to me while living in Shandong. I was dating this girl who told me that her family was forcing her to get married and that we could fool around, but eventually she would have to go back to her life. As a young guy, I didn't mind, so we " quote on quote " dated". One day she showed up with a gift (a bottle of Whiskey) gave me a kiss and left. I didn't see her for two years or so. I changed my number, apartment, and job by then because of a new job contract. One day, I was browsing Tan Tan(Chinese Tinder) and matched with her again... which was completely random. She started messaging me about how she wanted to hook up again and how she was married... At that time, I didn't bother.. I just told her that I was too tired to play these kinds of games. All I need is some crazy husband connected to the central government causing me trouble! a year earlier, one of my friends from work was fooling around with a married woman and it turned out that her uncle in law was a police chief. The cops raided our school looking for the guy.. he eventually left china.

You da man Winston! Laying it out there it all it's unvarnished glory. I arrived in China only a couple of months apart from you (BJ 5 years then SH 4 years), and though I didn't have direct experiences with relationships like you had (I met my Chinese born wife in the US before moving there), your observations ring true. It really isn't a criticism of the people; when you're in competition with literally millions and millions of others in your exact same generation, one has to make adjustments, and this is something people from the West won't understand until seeing it up close. Btw, I saw your friend Laowhy86 on David Pakman, and it was a great interview; I really hope he'd have you on too. All the best to you and your lovely wife and family.

Adjustments ? Love of money is the root of all evil. The point is.. ? There's Natural laws, and Social programable laws by men/dictatorships.

Society has learn not be Ideologically lead by forms of Artificial constructs to achieve a Righteous code, of lifestyle. Everyone wants peace, and prosperity. But at what coast ? And did you Qualify for that prosperity an peace. Most people are sheep. And afraid to agaisnt the conditioned norm. In which case ? True Peace will never be achieved out of fear an ignorance.
