i'm totally agree with you.
my bf's monthly salary 70% goes to supporting his family as well as save as his parent's health emergency fund as his parents have 0 insurance.

since both of us are late 20s, i've asked him several time any planning to our future. he keep on saying no money and have to support his family.
ask me to wait.. wait till when? wait till i'm 30++ ? till old? i feel that it's kinda unfair to me..

poor you, have to endure such situation. if he is a good man, he probably didn't want this to happen. I'm sure he would want to start a family with you if he is a good man.

hi eebodyyy..... why is the ping kam so important ? imo, the Chinese mentality sometimes a little bit too much request & very face minded. Solely classified to make simple things complicated. To me if I have kids of my own, what matters is their future husband or wives personality from day 1, and not about reimbursement or whatsoever. And another thing, I find it cocky that some Chinese people on their day of marriage, the husband need to read a short essay to their wife.. telling her how much he would appreciate and pamper her... In reality, how many of you man out there truly live up to your words? It is a disgrace for those who don't. and those keh le fei (pasu bunga) people all around are seen melting away as the bridegroom read the essay.. To me, I always believe marriage is just between 2 person & I don't need $ to validate anything.
