Love, in China

Ever wondered what it's like to date a Chinese girl? Well, in general, Chinese girls are pretty intelligent, relatively pretty and know what they want.

What do they want? Simple.

1. A good life.
2. Money which gives a good life.
3. More money, because that doesn't hurt.

It would be unfair to say that all Chinese girls are just out to get money, but a good number of them, maybe in the high 80% or even low 90%s are looking to have a good life, which means having a good life. Having said that, I guess most girls when looking for a partner are looking for for somebody who can support them and afford them a comfortable life and lifestyle.

I think, given the environment that China is, where money trumps all, it's understandable that there's a certain mentality where money becomes a priority. But the question is, most Chinese girls want a life where they don't have to work for the money - where they are able to have a relaxed life while the husband brings home the bacon.

The usual equation that I've come across is,

Giving me stuff + Time + Potential career success = Love

If you're missing out on one of them, then it's not really love. It's a serious concern if you do not have a lot of money, or actually believe, in true love and an equal partnership. However, if you're able to dig down and bring in the money, then it's relatively easy to find love.

But what if they're correct? What if love and life is about money...

Relook part relationships and apply, what if you had a lot more money, would the relationship have failed?
