Breaking up by a meal

Hot 4946 views. 2016-2-16 10:59

There is a piece of news during the lunar holiday. A girl from Shanghai proposed to break up with her boy friend he is from Jiang Xi rural area, because of a picture she posted on the website of foods on the table which looks like garages, most of us cannot accept and we don’t believe it from this spring festival.

The girl is working in HR and her mother and father are all native in Shanghai, she knew the boy at one year ago, due to the competence of work and good looking, the girl likes this kind of boy even he cannot afford to buy a house in this one or two years and no power of the family background, although her parents strongly against, she was still keeping the relationship and accept to visit his hometown at the lunar year. To her surprise that the dishes on the table from his home she have never seen it before, she realized and decision making at the day, go back to Shanghai as early as she can and no doubt to break up with him  immediately.

Frankly speaking I agreed, the marriage is the important for the family in the social, the happiness or not is effect the whole society, even there is the big different the living standard compare Shanghai and Jiang Xi, surely our government will support the poor area as much as they can, but it needs the time to balance, in reality, the small family cannot wait. They might have many problems in their life if they are not separation.

That’s why there are many single guys from the countryside, the women and girls from the places prefer to marry city boys, they go out of the village looking for a simple job it is not too hard, the social welfare is not bad for the employee, so no any women wants to go back the home town. General speaking, reducing the family arguments and the family to be consoled is the most important thing.

Recently this news is hot, i don't want to express my opinion as we are not the parties of this event , we don't know what exactly happened, we can't judge who's fault by several reports.
Yes, i agree there is a big difference between shanghai and rural area, we can't eliminate this difference immediately, what our government can do is gradual improve it, and that is exactly what our government doing now. i don't agree with you that no any women wants to go back their hometown,and not all girls are not willing to marry with the boy who come from the rural area. there is my root in my hometown, i believe that no matter how far i fly, i also will fly to my hometown.  if i'm so into this boy, i will accept his family and his background. as a Chinese, our Chinese culture, we are not only marry with a boy , but also with his family.
For this girl, maybe she isn't so love his boyfriend, maybe this bad enviornment is really beyond her expectation. Anyway i hope this news has a happy ending, don't hurt the boy's parents so much!

Thanks for reproducing that news and picture here. I have heard so much about this story but never seen the photos because I can't read Chinese, so I can't even find it.

Anyway, love and marriage is a solemn matter. Only true love should matters. Everything else is not that important. Everyone has some sort of bad  or negative side. I have negative sides too and I am a perfectionist so people and that can be quite annoying. Yes, that food is bad, but that is a village and everything in a village is backward. So what if that food is so bad? Nobody ask her to eat it everyday. She is marrying the boy, not his family. Who knows? someday this boy may become successful and rich, then what? She is going to find him and propose to marry?

There are some reasons to reject a marriage proposal like violence, drugs, objectionable permanent bad habits etc. Personally, I would never consider a girl who is concerned about high living standards and putting true love second.

Marriage has become so complicated and causing so much pain and sufferings to those who are single of marriage age. Time for change of attitudes.

The food is only the point, the problem is the gap for those two families, they might have a lot arguments in the marriage life.

I was grown up in a countryside, and I am very proud of that. For hardships teach me how to become stronger, how to face the reality. West, East ,home is best. No matter what kind of background he or she comes from,  he or she like going home.
As for love, it is rebond in both side, so it is hard to say who is right or wrong. But love should be sincere, from the bottom of the heart. But for marriage is another kind of thing. There are too many things to be consider.
At least this news teach us when we make decision we should objetively.

Love involve in two people, but marriage involve in two families. I think in China, you are not only marrying your lover, you also need to get well along with his/her family, take well care of his/her whole family, if not there will be lots of troubles in the future, Love can't support too long.

Yes, we all know that in China when you marry, you have to provide for the parents and relatives too. In addition, you have to have your own house and able to support the family. There are also all sorts of personal problems in marriage relations. All this is making people afraid to get married. Best is make everything simple and don't give to much problems to those who intend to marry.

No matter you are rich or poor ... Love, romance, marriage, family and relatives are really complicated. Hard to accept and hard to reject.

The huge gap between the rich and poor is the reality we cannot deny. There are still now many places are under the poverty. This explains well why that girl chose to leave. I truly sense her feeling.

Such a difference of social problem we can not solve it in a short time. Only can we do is to make better life by hard work. At least, we feel good to live on our own, that is enough for ordinary people.

Leave or stay, it is the free choice. Where else we want to go, it is also the option that we are freely to make. As long as we want, just go for it meanwhile swallow up bitterness.
