i have a friend, and she marriaged a chinese in australia. u know, 'net love', and only one or two years' net communication before their marriage.
she has never told me whether she has problems about her marriage, but i guess (from letters) that she has got problems.
marriage is complicated, ( i'm married, and i have a best wife in my eyes, so i think i'm able to tell u sth that i think u must consider)
love is not all in a marriage. his background is very important. ( people in china say that a couple need to be originated from the same background, MENG DANG HU DUI). your mentalities are not similar, but need to be close.
your husband needs to be a little bit stronger than you in respect of professional or other things. that means that your capabilities are close, not too different.
in a word, in reality, a prince will never love a street girl, and a princess will never love a street boy.
maybe u will say the wives of LING YUTANG, HUSHI... are common women, but they led a happy lives. but we, are common people, we are in 2006, and we are chinese ( don't think of princess charlie and her diana,or danish prince and his hongkang wife, or the medias big boss and his hongkong wife).
we are ordinary people, we think of love, but we need to maintain it untill the last minute of the marriage.
also, to marry a man without enough knowlege about him is a gamble.
sometimes, u win, but most time, u lose. good luck.
