Which way to choose? abandon or insist on? #1 (permalink) Thu Jan 08, 2009 7:27 am   Which way to choose? abandon or insist on?
 

Long long time no update my forums.How are you all?I am not feel happy these days.because I meet a problem as the most of people meet.You love a person,but you parents object to you.There are some reasons so that they don't agree with us.
1)We are too far away.I am in zhejiang,he is in sichuan.
2)he has no steady job.his work is to drive and deliver goods every night.
3)His family is not rich.If I follow him,I will meet difficulty.
I know every parents hope their children will have a beautiful future.They hope I can find a rich man,but not too rich is ok.but he have nothing。To be honest,I don't know how to choose.I don't want to abandon him.because I love him.but I am always worry about future.My feeling is complex.
So what should I do?Should I abandon?

Well, this is certainly not a question on English :) Jokes apart, you need to talk with
yourself a lot. But, I still doubt whether you want to write an essay on the topic you initiated. I am sorry if I am wrong :)

It's difficult to abandon heart feelings. They domain our brain. (yours). A life without love is worst than a life without money. Love can make money. Are there cultural diferences?. If this point is not important, it's better to follow the heart. Who should decide is you, if you are in age.

Hi, my fellow countryman, here are my suggestions:

Try to answer the first question:

Do you think you can endure living in poverty?

If your answer is yes, then love him as ever; if the answer is no, then try to work out a more certain answer to the second question as below:

Do you believe he has the ability or potential to become rich in future?

If your answer is yes, then love him even more; if the answer is still no, say goodby to him.

1) If he is from Sichuan province, doubtless he knows how to cook. You have a future of wonderful food together, as the cuisine of his people is famous throughout the world. I love this cuisine... about as much as I love Italian food, my native USA food (fried chicken, mashed potatoes, cheeseburgers, etc.), the wonderful heat of Tex-Mex cuisine and the beloved Tikka Massala from India. Szechuan cuisine, in my opinion, is among the world's best. And while it might seem dumb to base a relationship on food, consider that if you spend your lives together, you'll eat thousands of meals together. Good food is a blessing -- no kidding.

2. So he delivers goods... if he doesn't make a lot of money, you could get a job too. Two working equals more money than one. Work is generally rewarding: more money, friendships made at work, and something to occupy your time. And let me tell you, putting In a good day at work is rewarding if for no other reason than that you go home feeling like you accomplished something, that you did good work and earned your money. It's hard for me to wake up in the morning sometimes, but as I'm driving home at night I often think, "Man, today was tough, but I did my best, got to see people with whom I empathize, did my best and got paid for passing a day in this manner."

Parents, parents -- they're the same everywhere. Be happy that you have parents who love you and want you to have a good life... but don't give in to their idea of what your good life would be: show them that you love your dude for who he is; show them that you can work too, to help pay bills, and enjoy that work; and that, above all else, that you and he are committed to each other, that you love one another, and that this bond will lead to an everlasting matrimonial relationship rife with, perhaps, issues as they come... but that at its core you will love, respect and support each other. That is really all you need.
