I mean you know you made a mistake so I'm not gonna belabor it, just felt you needed to catch at least a little flak.

Well just think you can play that sappy Chinese music for your kid someday and tell him he was conceived to this song....er one of these... err they all sound the same.Oh I’m here to take the punishment graciously.

Oh thank god it wasn’t that MLTR song. Actually she was playing some guzheng music on Friday night when we were going to sleep, which I dig. This, uh, incident…occurred with no music in the AM.

This is the one that always sticks in my mind... from a very good movie way back when. But holy shit if I had to listen to this music I would stab people.

On the one hand, her voice is pretty impressive on a technical level. But it sounds like farm animals being tortured in terms of what she's actually singing.

Guzheng, daiko drums, shamisen, shakuhachi are all good things to hit youtube for once in a while. Good music.

Only reason to move in is the last stage of vetting before marriage. A few years at least.

I don’t disagree in theory, but every situation is different. I know a lot of people who have moved in together and got married after 1-2 years successfully. I have “essentially” lived with two women before after about that time. I mean this in the sense that we were together 5-6-7 days a week but still owned our own houses. Not exactly the same I realize but close enough.

Two things:
One, she started her period two days ago. So we’re clear there - I knew it was coming up soon which is why I wasn’t particularly worried, very low rate of possible pregnancy at that juncture.
Second, she brought up this morning when she goes back to China for the first time in five (six?) years next year she’d like me to come and meet her family.
That’s a ways off, and there’s still lots of uncertainty about timing, ongoing Corona issues in China, etc. But I was like wow, yeah, sure, that would be great. Again, one of those things where she wants to wait another six months or more before making any solid plan to do so, we’re not off buying our tickets today. But rather the sentiment of testing me to see if I liked the idea.

I guess it would depend what is the socioeconomic condition of the family and frankly maybe you should wait after getting married before embarking in a travel across the world to a hostile country.
Not to mention it is a lot better to be introduced as "father this my husband paul" vs "father this is my boyfriend paul"
Also being married does help a bit with certain things in a foreign country, and if God forbid anything happens, she is your wife, vs she is just a girlfriend.

- socioeconomics of her family doesn’t matter
- marriage has nothing to do with just visiting them and they’d probably be insulted if we *were* married without meeting first
- hostile country.
I’ve traveled a ton, this is fine and would be fun just on regular travel merits - It’s China, not Iraq. We don’t need to be married to visit together. Get a grip

Of course it matters. I did a similar trip after married, where I went to the equivalent of a favela in another country to visit my wife's father and grandparents..
Do you actually think I had fun? Surrounded by so much poverty and me being the one with money that sticks out like a sore thumb.
We went to a nearby resort and we had to evacuate at night our room and go to the other side of the hotel because legit drug dealers setup shop for the night and were doing an all night party.
Of course it matters to your safety if you are going to stay at walled city or on a nice area.

Don't talk to the potatoes. It makes them think they are people.- socioeconomics of her family doesn’t matter

Panama.
We visited Colon which is the second largest city and where one of the Panama Canal outlets is.
Her family members work in the actual canal on the tugboats that tow the boat into the Miraflores Lock
We got to sit on the towboat that is on that picture and witness the whole process of the ship going in and out of the lock.
but then the actual city looks like this
And some areas of the city are completely ran down
So yeah, it does matter what the particular circustance of his future in laws is, as that will affect your travel.
