    I'm Chinese. I can say something about the opinion of saying "thank you" in Chinese culture. When we grew up, at least for me, is that we don't say thank you to the people who are really close to us. Saying "thank you" will often make people feel like an outsider in your life, especially when they just want to do nice things to you, or even just regular things. I distinctly remembered my mom feel a little bit sad when I express thanks to her after I came back from the states. For me personally, I always felt my American friends being over-polite, but I soon realized it's just a cultural difference, as they often joked themselves of being too thankful in front of me.

As for Taiwan, we all know it underwent a long period of Japanese colonization, while the Japanese are well-known for their hierarchy manner. Plus, my personal experience in Taiwan was also not perfect: people treat you differently just because you speak Mandarin or English. It's a highly politically and culturally inconsistent area, so anything won't surprise me really.

    Hi! This is really interesting and I’m glad you have imparted this wisdom upon us all. I never knew this before reading your comment. It made me realize as an American that the phrase thank you is used a lot and in relation to service industries and retail workers who are in a way social and economic outsiders in our country. If I were to travel to China, would you mind sharing a phrase I could use (Chinese or English) that would express gratitude? :) If I were to travel to China

    It really is a cultural difference. We are taught from when we are children to say "thank you" whenever someone does something nice for you, and that you are very rude if you don't do it! Even with family and friends. In fact, if you don't say "thank you" enough, people will think you don't appreciate them and will get upset lol

    Only dated one girl when I lived in China (my first love actually). We met when I was travelling and stayed in contact long distance for several months before I bought a one way ticket back there to look for work teaching. We dated for 2 years and had a massive wedding in her hometown. Marching band, huge performances, traditional Tang clothing, horse, huajiao sedan chair etc. Even the ceremony involved crossing the bridge, stamping on rice, stepping over fire, firing the three arrows (sky, chair, ground) and drinking baijiu through interlocked arms. That was 10 years ago. 10 years happily married this year in my home country. I doubt we would ever move back to China to live though. We have established our lives here in Australia. I guess it's still rare these days to fall in love and marry your first love. But I'm blessed to never have experienced the pain of a breakup etc.

    Tips for foreigners who want to get married to Asians, LEARN THEIR LANGUAGE. Asian people are very family-centric and you're ought to be close to your in-laws as much as your own parents. Therefore, communication is a big thing. If you can speak their language even a little bit, at least to the point where you can have a casual basic conversation with them, you'll be guaranteed an approval.

She came from a poorer region of western China, so she was used to 'exchanging' services when lacking of money. I did not accept because it felt like a trap/scam.

    Not really. She’s bringing the American “I’m not like other girls I’ll date you without proving to me you can take care of me” with her sense of moral superiority. Of course we can see the effects with this thinking that a lot of BW are baby mamas and in poverty while Chinese women require more and make what’s necessary clear from the first date

    Once Chinese people accept someone as a true friend, then they view that person as one of their own, like family. They demonstrate their affection and appreciation for their close relations through every day action rather than words. Saying thank you is very easy; demonstrating care and appreciation on a day to day basis through action has much more depth and takes much more efforts. So in a way verbally saying thank you is the easy way out. Also once you accept someone as one of your own, there is no need to verbally thank each other, why would you thank yourself :-)

    Throughout Asia I've found that "romance" is heavily outweighed by pragmatism. Seems honest to me, that real love is seen as something that you nurture by being supportive.

    If you speak to older Americans, you will realize that we used to be pragmatic as well. Statements like "he's got no business getting married when he can't even take care of himself". This is why Chinese women ask openly if the men have a house, car, job. It's economic suicide making another mouth(s) to feed if you can't even reliably feed yourself. Credit card debt and welfare are not long term solutions or things anyone should be relying on in any country.

    Regarding what the guy from Georgia said: There is also a difference between Chinese millennial women( born 80s and 90s) and the ones born after 2000s. The millennial women kind of went through a similar movement like US went through in the 60s, since they grew up in conservative families, most of them had a sexual liberation awakening pretty late in their lives, and they tend to want to have fun for a while and enjoy the fact that, for the first time in history, women in Chinese societies are not rushed to get married before 25 or 30. The Chinese guys same age or older still tend to be more conservative, thus these women choose not to settle, especially the ones who moved to big cities. There was a time “sex and the city” was quite popular among millennial Chinese women living in big cities, so there is a certain level of relatability. But I do find younger generations (born in 2000s) mostly start moving beyond that phase collectively and instead wanting more commitment in the relationships. A lot of them had a normal teenager life growing up (dating in high school is more common, but not a thing for many millennials because of parents were against it), and they are less about sex but more about relationships. That being said, as a millennial myself, we do also move out of the “sexual liberation” phase eventually, so if it’s the right person don’t write people off because of this :)

    In Thailand, people don’t give their own name Gucci, Prada or anything like that, it’s there parents who give you that name as a nickname. Most Thai people have 2 names, nickname and real name, both names were given to them by their parents when they were born but nickname is an informal name and doesn’t show on ID card unlike real name so their parents can give them any nickname the parents want, for example like Star Wars? Name your kid “Jedi” as a nickname, your husband proposed you while you were traveling in Egypt together? Give you kid a nickname “Pharaoh” as a reminder of those great time the parents were traveling together etc etc. so in Thailand case, the name is not gonna sum up anything about that person but will sum up about their parents.

    When you are drawn to a different country or culture it can be indicative of a past life. It's quite a beautiful thing to see especially since we have means for people to travel and be where they want.

    Where you from? I am originally from Romania, travelled and worked abroad for past 20 years or so, last 13 in the UK though. I always was drawn to Colombia and Japan. Married the mother of my daughter in 2014 in Colombia, we lived in the Uk, separated last year, I love Colombia, we ll stay close for sake of our daughter. My next thing is Japan( I mean look at my KZread account name:))) I am 41 y old male and still attractive, we fell out of love since I was always busy to study and support the 3 of us. Seems silly for many but she took it really serious and eventually we fell apart, no arguments no cheating. So I’m thinking to go Japan at some point and who knows what life will offer me.

    @@japanluv I am from California but have done a fair amount of travel around US, Western Europe, and Latin America. I've lived and worked in Bolivia & Honduras - definitely feel a very strong connection with the culture and people. I speak Spanish fairly fluently which surprises native speakers and am often complemented on accent. I know I've had a past life in Latin America somewhere and those ties filtered into this lifetime. What a beautiful story you have. It is something very special to feel such deep connections and be able to experience it.

    @@namehere4954 Thank you for sharing your experience:D I am considering returning to Romania since I feel attached to homeland but would still want to do a fair bit of travel. Had a trimaleolar fracture last year at work( In an ICU nurse) so I’m reevaluating life and among music production and videography, I need a way to freedom as in time to do what I want when I want. I’m going to take Forex trading very seriously and that will let me earn from anywhere in the world with an internet connection. It will take me a while but will be a skill for life. Funny enough I am born on Independence Day of USA and after work on cruising ships wanted to come and live in USA. Passed an interview in 2006 and supposed to work as Food and Beverages Supervisor trainee in Embassy Suites Hotel in Arlington Virginia near Pentagon. They didn’t grant me visa at US embassy so came to the Uk instead. I still haven’t visited USA but my dream was to live in California.

    The "thank you" thing is so real!! I say thank you here in the US all the time, but in China, I only say that to strangers but almost never to close friends or family, I'm still the same person and stay polite all the time, but it's just a cultural thing
