In modern society, blind dates have become an important way for many single men and women to find a partner. However, a recent blind date incident in Hangzhou attracted widespread attention because a woman made a list of monthly expenses of up to 9,900 yuan to the man on the night of the blind date.
The woman, a 1.68-meter-tall working woman with an income comparable to that of her husband, presented her with a detailed breakdown of her family's daily expenses through an electronic document. In this list, the fixed monthly expenses are as high as 9,900 yuan, and this does not include the additional expenses of both parents and the upbringing expenses of the children. The woman explained that she had made this list of expenses so that both parties had a clear idea of what they would do after marriage. She believes that according to this list, the man's annual salary is not enough to maintain his ideal standard of living, and encourages him to increase his annual salary to 200,000.
The man, a 35-year-old man who works in a state-owned enterprise with an annual salary of 100,000 yuan and owns two properties, expressed his opinion on this. He believed that with his property income, he should be able to cope with these expenses, but the woman did not agree. Eventually, the two broke up amicably due to differences in values and life goals.
This incident has sparked a discussion about the gap between economic expectations and reality in the modern dating market. The woman's budget reflects the pursuit of quality of life, while the man's annual salary and asset situation are considered good by many. This failed blind date may hint at the importance of economic fundamentals in contemporary conceptions of marriage and love, as well as potential differences in values and life goals.
Is it appropriate to make such a detailed list of expenses during the blind date process?This has caused a wide discussion in society. On the one hand, it is very important to understand the financial situation and consumption concepts of both parties to assess whether they are suitable for marriage. On the other hand, putting money issues on the table too early can put pressure on the other person and even affect the relationship between the two parties.
In general, this incident reminds us that in the process of marriage and love, we must not only rationally consider economic factors, but also pay attention to emotional communication and the fit of values. Money is not the only measure of marital happiness, a true marriage is based on mutual understanding, support and respect.
