[quote=GUEST86717,623739]I met a very beautiful Chinese girl from Shanghai 10 years ago when I was working there. I am from Germany originally. You can instantly tell she is extremely popular in Shanghai from the way she talks, her fair skin and beautiful features. She graduated from top school in US and was working for an international firm close to my company. It was love at first sight when I first met her, and I tried to approach her everyday ever since after work. She was extremely cold to foreigners and WOW, one day, I was waiting for her with flowers in hand, she tried hard to avoid eye contact with me, but later she turned her head and said," I am very sorry I don't want to have a relationship with foreigners, you look nice I hope you find someone who appreciate you and like you for who you are. God Bless" and disappeared. Six months later I met her in a business forum, I just couldn't believe my luck, of course I couldn't let her escape from my life this time... she didn't expect me to walk up to her and I firmly asked her to give me a chance and give yes or no answer later in fluent Mandarin... She was smiling but didn't say anything. The following week we had lunch together, and we shared a lot about our family up brings and dreams, she was very gracious and I was firm about dating her after that. After six months of hanging out, she finally agreed to be my gf and allowed me to kiss her[mood1] then we travelled to Europe together, to visit my families and many beautiful places in a China, I bought her a wedding ring when I got a job offer in Australia and she said" okay unless you agree on what I send you tomorrow". The next day she emailed me a very cute 'Typical recipe of the week', basically 4 days shanghainese cuisine, 3 days Western food, 1 day dine out. "I can't marry you if you want beers and sausages everyday, I can't have mashed potatoes everyday, that's cultural differences... " We are married now for almost 8 years, and she has been such a wonderful wife and selfless mom. I think one of the key reason for happy marriage is great communication and trust. You want a good Chinese wife, you look for someone who can at least speak your language, otherwise how do you connect on a spiritual level? I also find girls from bigger cities are more open-minded and adaptable to western culture. Are Chinese wives needy and materialistic? Not really. My wife has never been materialistic or needy, she only told me we need to have a plan for life and that's all. She is very hardworking compare with German standard and very brainy. I am impressed that she has put our family as her top priority and like many Chinese wives, she is serious about cooking and educating the kids. I have to admit my stomach is turning Chinese and My favourite dish so far is my wife's beef in Oyster sauce. [/quote]
