I am an Expat with Chinese ancestry who married a Chinese wife and I regret it every single day. I had to buy a house and car before marriage. Now I live for our child
There is no bride price in America either. I'm so happy for this couple and for others that are like them. Love and respect are the most important thing between two people.
I married non-Chinese. I count my blessings. As for today's high demand Chinese woman, "calculating" is probably the best one single word that I've heard that best describes them. Nice video. Thank you.
A similar thing is happening even in S. Korea. Many Korean guys are finding wives from many non Asian countries. Many seem very happy. No dowry and in laws who are thousands of miles away.
👍♥ I love this story, it sounds like a plot from a Hallmark movie, complete with a girl abandoning her city lifestyle and embracing the country life style of her significant other. The noodle misunderstanding is the cherry on top ♥. It's absolutely true, awesome people will attract awesome people. Or "like minded will attract other like minded". In the US there's no such thing as "bride price", that would be considered as gold digging. Instead two like minded people fall in love, have the same values and goals and work together to build their dream life. There's tons of vlogs by couples that showcase this. Maybe Chinese women should watch these vlogs to learn something.
Wow. What an italian gem. I'd say to have 4 more babies. More beautiful kids please. We need more East-West kids to change the world. This world is too divided racially and needs to change big time.
I see so many wonderful Chinese guys who are POOR in Chinese people eyes but full of love, commitment, good values. I would allow my girls to marry if they fall in love with a Chinese guy. We dont need no bride price, house, car, money, etc All we need is love and be treated well ONLY. They can work together and accomplish everything step by step
@@ngochanang9415 I am a mother, this avatar is of my late husband who died in 2020. This is the criteria I used to get my husband and it worked. My soulmate was a wonderful husband and beloved father. If I had only looked at his wallet, I could had lost the love of my life and father to our four kids. We did not had a bed to sleep on the first month of our marriage, no furniture, nothing in our apartment in the Bronx, NYC. We ended up having our own home in Pennsylvania, Cars, etc working together. Money is important but not more important than love and commitment. Stuff can be had little by little, it is not so serius. When my husband died he did not take anything with him, only certainty he was loved for him not his money because we got none to start
The problem is probably made worse from two factors: 1. the relative scarcity of women to men in China, due to the one-child policy; 2. The rapid material development in China, which makes people worship material things. I doubt that ALL Chinese women are oriented strictly to material things, but it's certainly a strong influence in this environment.
One heck of a woman loving nature in spite of the creature comfort of her background. What a lucky man from a rural life. Wish them long lives of peace and happiness. Chinese girls these days and their parents are sucked into the materialistic greed. The West toxic culture is eroding the young girls.
No bride price, because it's not part of her culture. Most asian culture has a bride price, there is a reason behind it so this becomes a tradition for generations. But Chinese bride price is too much!!😮
I'm Chinese, and even to my sensibilities, bridal price is bullshit. Traditionally, it worked if the woman was a virgin and actually had a reputation for being a trustworthy and submissive virgin because she is being entrusted to honor and keep the man's wealth and household from generation to generation and have tons and tons of his babies. It won't work if she is 35 and working on her 4th masters degree, as if that somehow were to miraculously lengthen her fertility window 😂😂😂 If that reputation is no longer there, even by one iota, these women shouldn't expect a bridal price, because there isn't any difference between a Chinese woman and a supposedly corrupted Western white woman at that point. If anything, that makes white women infinitely more attractive because the transactional that is the dowry is gone. Chinese women love to talk trash about cultural differences, but the real truth is that Chinese men and Chinese women don't really share the same culture anymore. I would rather tough it out with a Brit, an American or a Ukrainian chick, than pretend I'm happy being constantly disrespected by some condescending Chinese banshee who tells me I can't do math or hold my chopsticks correctly 😂😂😂 Fuck off
The good life today has corrupted the minds of the Chinese. It was not that long ago that China was a poor and backward country. Along the way they have lost their humility and now everything is about money and status. People are caught up in a sort of trap, where they have to keep up appearances to the point of being in debt. It is actually none of anybody’s business how much a couple choose to spend on things like weddings. Parents should not put pressure on their children for the sake of saving face. Bride price should just be a token sum or any amount within the means of the groom. If the Chinese people subscribe to this, then there is no longer any embarrassment attach to this and the need to have a lavish wedding banquet instead of a simple dinner.
I assure you that it's definitely real. All the scenes and images in the video are from their social media, not from a fictional plot. In China, he has two million followers who have witnessed their love.
The bride price is high because of the one child policy.The ratio of male:female population due to this policy drove the bride price up, do not blame these ladies, but the government policy.
I dont think all chinese families are asking for a high bride price and they also want their daughters to have love and to be happy and this subscribers are very negative about chinese culture ....
It's a Chinese custom but taken to a crazy level due to greed, overseas Chinese do not demand such exorbitant price to marry off their daughters, the guys only give what they can afford to the in laws.
3:08 "...surprise--a month later Mennas discovers she's pregnant..." Yeah, it doesn't quite work like that. We're passed the stage of the "stork and the cabbage patch," I think they knew something could happen before she got pregnant!
That happens when you are living on a city. Also my self when I visit on my mom province I was in love everything for is first time. Peacefull and refreshing. It doesn't matter if you don't have money.. well I work also in the field for 8 to 12 hrs. And trading for 3 hours. I am cheating a little. Still I want money😂
Bro please tell me this is only a fairy tale. As a Chinese person myself this just cannot be real. Logically no woman would want to be with a person who will drag or bring them down. Not that i scorn or despise the man, what he does is impactful and beneficial but women look for abundance and security not fulfillment.
This is true. If you are Chinese, you can easily search for these two real people on Chinese TikTok. I know it's very difficult for you to marry a woman, but believe that there are always special people waiting for you in this world.

It's really tough, bro. I pinned your comment at the top, trying to let more people see your difficulties. Chinese women make all men feel suffocated.
Damn
😂😂😂😂😂
Do not be fooled by Chinese girls. Chinese men are dating out for very good reasons.
I like your DW profile picture.
She knows what she is getting, love, happiness, and a strong, independent man for husband. A beautiful woman indeed.
I'm glad that you like this story. I'm proud of it. May peace prevail in the world.
She is quite a prize. A good woman inside and out.
Issue is that women like her is rare.
Type of zigma female ❤
Not rare in other parts of the world though. There are many happily married farming wives in the west. It’s not about wealth but it’s about love.
There is no bride price in America either. I'm so happy for this couple and for others that are like them. Love and respect are the most important thing between two people.
The "bride price" in America comes a few years later, when she divorces and takes everything you own!...including the children!
@@PracticaProphetica LOL!! Buy now, pay later.
@@bobsmith3983 Yep. Fish bait.
The most unbelievable & funniest comment that I ever see 😂 maybe it happened in an Amish Community!

It's great to hear from someone who's experienced the same thing!
What nationality is your wife?
German and French-Canadian
Chinese women dont know what is love they just see man as a property
A similar thing is happening even in S. Korea. Many Korean guys are finding wives from many non Asian countries. Many seem very happy. No dowry and in laws who are thousands of miles away.
They knew each other in Heaven. Amen
Beautiful story.
Glad you think so!

Chinese women give it up for free if a White or Black guy shows up. They only charge when an Asian man is interested
Wow. What an italian gem. I'd say to have 4 more babies. More beautiful kids please. We need more East-West kids to change the world. This world is too divided racially and needs to change big time.
Both members of this couple are awesome. If only today's Chinese woman would go for what really matters

I'm sorry, madam. I really didn't know. I'm so sorry to hear that. You'll surely get better.
Chinese women look for a materialistic life, missing instead the Chinese men with a wealthy heart which makes them valuable males.
I love that view of the country side and natural mountain.
I'm a Chinese and this bride price thing is ridiculous. I've seen more and more Chinese guys stay single or marry girl from other countries
So, maybe you should be one of them, too.
The problem is probably made worse from two factors:
1. the relative scarcity of women to men in China, due to the one-child policy;

@@PracticaProphetica Spot-on your comment. I can testify to its veracity, having lived 14 years in China.

This is a sad and realistic story, bro. You'll find the woman you love. Wish you all the best and may things get better and better for you.
Southeast Asians like Hmong People has bride price

Both of them are like brother and sister except the eyes and hair color
😂😂😂
Lucky guy. I always wanted to have an Italian girl
Bro, you'll find it. I sincerely wish you all the best.
This story worth a film production!
I share the same thought. This movie might be better than many Netflix movies.
Without paying bride=Priceless bride
Rich Italian girl marrying a rural Chinese guy? And parents ok with it? Seems unreal. But if it is true, he’s the luckiest dude
I assure you that it's definitely real. All the scenes and images in the video are from their social media, not from a fictional plot. In China, he has two million followers who have witnessed their love.
I mean uf these Chinese girls can get foreign guys with same extreme standard...🤣🤣🤣
Extreme feminism came to china....
No never see like this 😮😮 he is handsome 😅 but good to know, money not everything sometime, but money solve the problem 😊
Once you have money the husband no longer needs to be rich
The bride price is high because of the one child policy.The ratio of male:female population due to this policy drove the bride price up, do not blame these ladies, but the government policy.
Mórón
This has nothing to do with government policy, it is up to the women, greedy and lying in bed like a starfish.
S t fu. Y'all cry about western Feminism yet y'all infantilize asian women. I'm glad your own women are becoming insufferable towards you
those kids are so handsome. Love is anywhere you find it
I dont think all chinese families are asking for a high bride price and they also want their daughters to have love and to be happy and this subscribers are very negative about chinese culture ....
I have lived a long time in China. Those people also exist, you're right.
Maybe
It's a double standard for Chinese men. Because when Chinese girls married Western foreigners, Westerners didn't have to pay crazy bride prices.
It's a Chinese custom but taken to a crazy level due to greed, overseas Chinese do not demand such exorbitant price to marry off their daughters, the guys only give what they can afford to the in laws.

My Gawdness that is an EPIC RNG roll win!
Yes, beautiful lady. Cross-border romances are truly wonderful.
@ Yeah it is special
And unique. God Bless!

Just remove the country name, let people marry across the globe.
No way man!
This is what we called faith.
When did the tradition of paying bride price start in China?
This tradition has existed since ancient China.
How accurate is this?
Bro please tell me this is only a fairy tale. As a Chinese person myself this just cannot be real. Logically no woman would want to be with a person who will drag or bring them down.

Some do and some don't. Luck of the draw.
