[Golden question]

Let me share with bros here on how i so call 'impress' my wife then girlfriend few years back.

Before marry,i highlight to her that,

i am a normal sg man with a decent job
i cant give her any monthly income to support her mom in vietnam
Dont think that marry to singapore will surely get singapore citizenship
Dont expect me to contribute things like buy house in vietnam for your family
Dont think that is easy to land a job in singapore
Is not easy to live in a foreign country with no friends or family member with u
Etc

All this i make clear to her,the main purpose is not to scare her off but let her know that is the 'price' for marrying me.Well if she able to take it,then we can marry if not then is best we stick to friends

The problem with some sg man is they always agreed on what their wife want before marry and after marry start to become a problem that grow bigger until they cannot satisfy their wife request,quarrel then lead to divorce and worst still have a kid.

Some will let their foreign wife know good things to marry to singapore and avoid some things that come for the price of marrying a foreign spouse whom she cant work when first came

Well maybe i am the opposite or more pratical type whereby i dont really know how to impress her by buying things everytime she want or makes her happy but i know i will take care of her with a decent living

I so call 'impress' her with the real life and who i am.If she love me,she will accept what i say and marry me if not,is fine with me

Everybody have different thinking and they come from different culture,whatever intention a foreign wife might have to marry a sg man,ultimately my duty is to let her know and to be fair to her
