[quote=CHYNAGYRL,38209]Good luck with your relationship.  I think intercultural couples are really cool, mostly because they learn so much from each other's cultures.  It's more difficult at the beginning because of the cultural differences, but after you learn to bridge those differences, I think it's really worth the effort.  From what I see, there is a difference in communication style difference between Asians and Westerners.  Chinese people use more implied communication so you need to sharpen your mind-reading skills.  This especially goes for women.  In Asian culture, a good husband is able to anticipate his partner's needs because she is typically a little reserved about saying them all explicitly.  And I think when an Asian woman is upset, she is more likely to withhold her feelings of discontent, which has caused more than a few foreign guys some anxiety, because they don't know how to handle it.  You can overcome those differences with time and good communication skills though![/quote]
