S: why? Did tom pop the question?
N: not yet. But I wonder if I can get my parents’ consent.
S: let me guess, your parents want you to marry a Chinese man, right?
N: you are right. It is giving me a real headache. I feel like I’m between
a rock and a hard place.
S: I used to have the same problem when I was with my ex.
N: oh, how did you deal with it?
S: I just let it go and continued dating with my Korean boyfriend. But
finally we broke up.
N: oh, it’s a pity. What was the matter?
S: simple. We had personality clashes and there were too many cultural
differences.
N: like what?
S: he hoped to live in the Korean way and asked me to give up working and
stay at home to take care of the family.
N: Oh, I see. In their culture women should put family first.
S: yes, he said it would be batter for me and for the whole family. But I
simply can not quit working.
N: so that's why it’s hard to have a happy marriage with a foreigner.
S: not really. There are many successful mixed marriage around us. |
